Basic and Assembly, how to?

Post by robcfg »

Sooooo... I might be trying to put together a big basic program along a decent amount of graphics and some assembly functions together, but I'm struggling a bit.

Do I need to reposition the stack? How much stack space would be nice to have? I guess issue a proper CLEAR xx,yy command, etc...

Any help appreciated!

I'm talking roughly about 14KB Basic code and 19KB binary data and routines.

One obvious thing pops up right away it's that it would need a 64KB machine, and that begs another question: Would you people prefer a tape game that needs a 64KB machine, or would you prefer having it on disk but having to load some data while playing?

Cheers,
Rob

Given that I have a Dragon 32 and no disk drive I prefer neither option :lol:

However, for an emulator I would prefer the 64kiB tape option.
