TAB Alpha Release 21

[catventure]

Hi,

Alpha Release 21 contains small fix and addresses incompatibility problem. (Thanks to Psch)
I've removed the "Press S To Start" routine when adventure is loaded into TAB Player.

Please let me know if run Ok on thinbasic 1.1.0.0 and 1.2.0.0

I'm hoping to improve the program over the coming months.

Cool to see you again and great that you work further on TAB. I will give it a spin over the next days. Thank you for releasing it.

Found a bug, it appeared in the graphic_demo game. Right at the start I type in e and then I got that error screen:

Hi Catventure,

thanks a lot for new release!

There are few minor issues on my PC :-[

In Character_Demo I get "NEXT Without FOR or FOR without NEXT" on line 5750.
Maybe it is because of iterate for optimization, I don't know. Eros will know more.

There is one little bit weird thing - when I open new game I can't see last 2 lines.
Nothing scrollbar could handle :). But there is also lot of space ( " "+$CRLF like ) before text.

This causes problem in my favourite Piggery Jokery, where in intro you can't see "press ENTER" and it seems to be hanged although it is not for this reason.

This "issues" are quite unimportant, but to let you know...


Thanks a lot,
Petr

EDIT: So you get similar error - I think it is related to new tweaks in FOR/NEXT, Eros fixes it now I think

Hi gui,

yes, it is relates to latest thinBasic release preview. Fix is almost ready.
I will check TAB this night when home and give you back.

OK,
sorry for delay.

Not yet ready to release new complete update so I will post a quick fix here attached.
Please take thinCore.dll from attached ZIP file and substitute the one in thinBasic application directory.
This should fix the problem.

ATTENTION: this is a fix for those having latest thinBasic preview 1.2.0.1 installed. If you have thinBasic stable version 1.2.0.0 do not update this file.

Sorry catventure.
Eros

Thanks Eros (and Mike and Psch!)

I have not yet got new preview with changed FOR..NEXT so was not getting this error in 1.2.0.0.
I will wait for next preview to be released before downloading.

Thanks.

Psch: I will try and sort the scroll problem of which I'm aware.
