Yeah... =)
I see you didnt ask what the hell "Myst" was.. oh, that was ported from the computer platform to Sega Saturn.
It uses One Pic, unlimitied click zones. =) Sorta like Immerse.
BTW... I have no idea what your obsession with my name is, but the way you suggested, "Truiken", means "drinking down the dirt" in German (according to a friend), so i best stick with Triuken. =)
: : : A strange Arabian fish dish, I swear (referring to the subject title...) I see now.. Seems pretty clever; having one screen set up like that.. I thought, with you're passion for the TK's
: : Thats not exactly it.. I take a Pic, using #BITMAP, of course.. wait for a #MouseClick (or #MouseMove), then test if the click was within the zone (WITH 4 #IF's) if its not, it #Branch's up.
: : It saves a bit of disk space, as I only use one Pic for ALL THE BUTTONS, not 1 for each button. So, we could easily make Myst-type games using ONE Jpeg for every scene, and unlimited click zones =). I do it this way.. BTW what did you mean by drawing rectangles??
: internal drawing commands, you drew shapes for buttons or something.. Heh.. Rather dumb of me I know..
