Twili Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Going to make a better topic with ALL of my modding notes, etc. in the next few days. This was rushed, and not explained as best as it could be. Also, there was still the issue of not terminating the strings with 00, which is fixed now. Nothing to see here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Airikita Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Good finding with the function, but I assume it's similar to the one used for the debugger itself? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twili Posted February 24, 2015 Author Share Posted February 24, 2015 The reason for the garbage text, by the way, is because we aren't terminating any of the strings with 00. The space we're writing them to is filled with 00 bytes, but we're recycling 8 lines and rotating their pointers, so the first 8 strings will print fine no matter what, but we don't clear the lines, so what's left of the previous string on one will remain if the new string that it's being overwritten with is shorter.

Er... ok? I never said anything about it being garbage text. /rude Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never said anything about it being garbage text. /rude There's garbage text, though, so I was explaining to the viewers why it was there. I couldn't answer your question, but still had something to say in general. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twili Posted February 25, 2015 Author Share Posted February 25, 2015 I'm playing hit-and-run. Sorry. I'm a perfectionist. (Removing the contents of my opening post because I'm making a catch-all modding topic later with explanations that aren't lazy, and the aforementioned issue being fixed.) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
