Re: Spectrum memes
$+4 gives me headaches at the recalculating the address.
M2+1 is easier on the eyes and calculating. The only problem with using m2+1 is that for the beginner programmer they might be adding 2+1 together and getting 3 and getting the wrong address. I try (and usually fail) to not use m2, loop2 style names for routines. Yes to mtwo, try not to use m2, and no to $+4.

agree, but what if you need add two opcodes between ld($+4),hl and m2: ?MatGubbins wrote: ↑Wed Jun 20, 2018 7:06 pm$+4 gives me headaches at the recalculating the address.

Re: Spectrum memes
Thanks Dave! About that Sqij in Hell meme, I know you aren't supposed to explain them, but... The point was, in Hell the only game available to play is the lousiest game in history, and to add insult to injury, whenever you try to load it, it fails!
For now...

But that would mean you were being spared from actually having to play the game.Alessandro wrote: ↑Wed Jun 27, 2018 8:17 amThanks Dave!

As R-Tape's meme suggested, it would make sense that in Hell - not only would the game load perfectly every time - but it would also lack the caps lock bug that prevented you from playing it!
