A ChoiceScript clone that generates SGDK-compatible C source for the Sega Genesis

choice4genesis's Issues

Improve unit tests.

Implement `while` command.

Allow configuring the borders of the window

Implement `video` command.

Allow the programmer to create functions

Implement `if`/`elseif`/`else`

Will depend on #8

Add a blinking cursor when waiting for a button press

Improve documentation of the commands

Implement support for hotspots/image maps

    thanks it all works! suggestion for your engine(s): hotspot/image maps! it may expand gameplay. anyway thanks again will try converting alot of images now :) !!!

Some of the transpiler error messages are appearing twice

Example:

startup.choice: Error at line 36: Image filename points to a missing file: "Smiley.png---".
startup.choice: Error at line 36: Image filename points to a missing file: "Smiley.png---".

Fix "Press Enter to Continue" when using menu.

Implement interpolation support for the text lines (`${expression}`)

Implement `goto_scene` command.

Implement automatic image conversion.

On the `image` command, allow choosing the layer in which the image will be drawn

wow another nice engine/console!

getting into it! Im trying to change pictures
i think i used correct pallete but the original hedgehog picture shows..
what can i do to update images? thanks!
src/generated_scripts.c:20:17: error: 'Blue_Hedgehogp_png' undeclared (first use in this function)
VN_background(&Blue_Hedgehogp_png);

Implement command for running the compiled application on an emulator

Implement `clear` command.

Allow configuring the ROM header.

Implement sprite support

Allow to configure the cursor for the menu, too.

Implement scrolling for the menu if it has too many options

Make string generation support escape chars.

Fix the `--watch` option; it is a bit unreliable, right now.

Expand the `wait` command to be able to wait for time, for a key, or for the sound to stop.

Color 0 of the background is not being shown correctly

The background command isn't showing color 0 correctly: color 0 from the background image should be set as background color for the VDP.

Implement `scene_list` and `finish` commands.

The code generators for the image related commands should check if the image exists.

Implement animated GIF support

That will require #25 and #73, first

Refactor the tool to be easy to extend with plugins.

Fork node-menu and update underscore version

Dependabot alert: https://github.com/haroldo-ok/choice4genesis/security/dependabot/1

The `--project-dir` command line option isn't working correctly

Some routines of the transpiler are still using the default project dir.

Create parameter to tell the transpiler which project will be transpiled.

When transpiling the project, copy the base libraries to the `src` folder, if necessary.

Implement automatic project creation

Implement `create`, `temp` and `set` commands.

Implement `sound` command.

Implement code generator for expressions.

Implement `window` command.

Implement command line menu.

Allow the cursors to be configured

Some flags and named parameters are acting case-sensitive

Implement option to watch automatic for changes, and recompiling if necessary.

Background image corruption after resizing window.

If one executes the demo project, goes to the "Show more backgrounds" option, then "Test window", then "Show more backgrounds" again, the second image appears corrupted; by elimination, it seems resizing the window causes problems on later background rendering. Could be some memory leakage when reallocating the background, or something similar.

Improve exception handling.

Implement support for setting alignment/justification to the `window` command.

    cant wait :) will the text be automatically justified/hypenated too? Im chipping away at adding text 👍

Implement `label` and `goto` commands.

Implement the `native` command, to call native functions

Create parameter to tell the transpiler to call the SGDK compiler after a successful transpilation.

Implement word wrapping
