quick q;

I cant get the print command working fully, i need it to keep printing on the same line. the manual mentions the semi-colon being used. heres my code;

FOR x = 1 to 100
FOR y = 1 to 100

maptileshade=RND(5)
print maptileshade ;
map(x,y) = maptileshade

NEXT y
NEXT x

the fact i`m printing a variable seems to be the issue? tried quotes etc, no joy.

(i`m basically populating a grid here and want to see the data a certain way as it goes in)

thanks for any help

No, just put this right before your print line:
Set cursor 10, 10.

That'll keep it in the right place.

Tanto? Iie. Kore wa tachi desu.

Whoops, that would make it print all the data into one messy unreadable line.

Try this:

Dim TextY as Integer
TextY = 10

FOR x = 1 to 100
FOR y = 1 to 100

maptileshade=RND(5)
set cursor 10, TextY
TextY = TextY + 10
print maptileshade ;
map(x,y) = maptileshade

NEXT y
NEXT x

here u go


either there was an array in your code previously that u didnt mention declared that stopped it from running, or the space after the printed variable between the semi colon had something to do with it not working.
