Hi,

I'm new to pure basic, after years on my MSX and my Amiga with Amos I didn't do much programming for a long time. Only a little ALife program in Qbasic and C++, some Vbasic, Lingo, Assembly etc at university as well...

I was wondering about either blitz or pure to code mainly Alife and small 2d games.

Hope to make a decission soon. I'm testrunning both Blitz and Pure right now. Dark didn't cut it.

Well, the minute I say that idiotic edit screen (which on a TFT 1280x1024 looks really bad...!) I knew I had to get out....FAST.

Blitz and Pure both seem very nice indeed. I made some code involving 5000 evolving bacteria in Blitz on a field of trees (that grow) and water (that erodes the land) and it run like a charm. Now I need to convert the code to Pure...test it on pure too.

See which one is easiest and which is fastest.

I'd like to see that code, if you don't mind, bazziman...
*edit* the code in Blitz, I mean.. *edit*
Can you be bothered to give me a link to it?!?
