PureBasic Forums - English

Awesome job!! Thanks for all your hard work!

For anyone interested in giving an honest review of Purebasic, please read the following:

Hi Robert,

I'm reaching out to people with experience using PureBasic and other dev tools - your fellow developers are coming to G2 Crowd, a third-party business software review site (think Yelp! for ...

A sampling of TI-Basic, which was built into the Texas Instruments 99/4A Home Computer; the BASIC I started with: 100 CALL CLEAR
110 PRINT "Start Program? (Y/N)"
120 CALL KEY (0, K, S)
130 IF K = 89 THEN 160
140 IF K <> 78 THEN 120
150 END
160 CALL SAY ("#READY TO START#")
170 REM start program ...

I thought it should work that way.. I just wanted to make sure as I don't have my VM Workstation setup on this computer and no other OS's to test on.

Thanks for the reply.

If I use RandomSeed(1) in my program, will it produce the same value when I use Random(100) on every OS/CPU it is run on?

Thanks PB Crew! You guys are the best!!!!

Alright. I will work on a workaround then. Thank you for the help.

I think that's not possible, since RunProgramm() starts an own instance of the command processor,
which has it's own environmentvariables.

My Question is can a program that is run by the RunProgram() command use the SetEnvironmentVariable() command to return information back to the program that originally ran it? I'm using the following code which does not seem to work. The first code I'm running in the IDE the second code I have ...

Are you planing on updating PureFORM to the current PB version or is 1.99 the best it's going to be?

Your engine is looking great guys. Keep up the great work!

Two questions

2. Why would you put such a tool in a private beta with a user-base that looks to only be in double digits and mostly part-time users?

It's not in 'Private beta', every current PB owner can download spider and test it out. If your not one of those people then I would suggest buying ...

I thank you for the info. I'm not completely understanding how this works but I will figure it out.

I'm totally new to the graphics end of programming and I have a question regarding layering of tiles and how it works exactly. I'm going to be having sprites going inside of buildings and under bridges but I'm not sure how to layer the tiles to be able to do that. I searched the forum for layering ...

Why not combine SpiderBasic and PureBasic into one single software?
+ 1
A very sensible idea, which is why the competitors are doing it that way. The Help already notes which functions can be used on which OS, so this is just a further expansion of the theme. Also, putting a price on each ...
