That thread is messed up -- it happens once in a while.  None of my posts are recognized either.  So we'll move it here.

There is a special curses command that lets you do real time.  It is called nodelay().

I'll post the BCoS code.  It's pretty ugly, like the game , but it should give the basic ideas.  I'll do it soon -- maybe today or tomorrow.  Certainly in the next three days.

Thanks alot, I appreciate it!

I put up the ugly ass code in the Curses Arcade.

Post games you write.  People want to see them.

[Toady One]

Did you write anything yet?  We want games!
Or are you writing...  utilities?  <shudder>

[Demon]

Well I had too much trouble trying to make C++ work, so I degenerated back into basic...  I got all the basic stuff set up but then got bored and quit.  Game programming is so much less fun than utilities!    :p

PRANK POST!!!

*watches as the whole forum blows up*

oops...

[Toady One]

Yeah, game programming is for losers.

And for people with an ounce of motivation...

You know, Icewind Dale 2 seemed coherent until I got to this part where I was attacked by a giant snake and orcs being led by wererats.  That was just confusing.

In addition, Morrowind is rated Teen for Blood and Violence.  It didn't get up to Mature.  However, there's this part where you taunt a demon and it attacks you.  Prior to attacking you, it says "After I kill you, I'm going to rape your corpse.  Don't worry.  I'll be gentle."  It reminded me of this Mark Hamill movie...
