ENIGMA Development Environment

whenever i use window_set_caption() it  doesn't throw errors.... or do anything....

I used the room_caption variable. My guess is window_set_caption isn't fully implemented or gets overwritten with room_caption.

I try my best to warn people about this; unfortunately it can hardly apply to either of you because you're on Linux.
If it doesn't work in ENIGMA, and you think it should, be sure it works in GM. You are correct that it gets overwritten with room_caption, Ism. This is the behavior of GM, also. The function room_set_caption() is useful only when a script is looping for a long time and needs some way of outputting a percentage.

There's no bug here, and no need for printf(); just use room_caption as people do in GM.

Now if only that code was more of a function and less of a script.

I Don't see how a private court would work. The two would have to consent to one, or it wouldn't be fair. You'd need a city court or something.
The entire operative mechanism behind civilized government is surrendering the right to enforce your own rights (actively; you retain the right to  self-defense) to the government, who will then use that authority to protect your rights for you. A private court seems more spontaneous; the poison-pie -baker and -eater would each want a court composed of different people. Who would decide that? You can't leave such to the capitalist (and for that matter, federalist) idea of "ambition to defeat ambition;" that system tends to work mostly on the larger scale.

Just my two cents; I would care to hear an explanation.

Pause is fine for Windows. The terminal doesn't even open for bash files in Linux, so...

Rusky:
Is there a way to concatenate that variable into a path? "Graphics_Systems/" ## @GRAPHICS ## "/*.cpp" style?
Or, better yet, to include a second makefile from "Graphics_Systems/" ## @GRAPHICS ## "/" to promote easy extensibility?

MrJackSparrow2:
Have you recompiled the compiler lately? It's a good idea to do that each time you check out.

Ism:
If every Linux distribution could run the same exe's, apt-get would be a thing of the past.
That's why everything on Linux is either open source or apt-get'd. This is another reason why a makefile would seriously help; one could be distributed along with the C++ source of the game to be built on any platform. Also, ENIGMA's site could eventually make it easy by having a changer script for specific operating systems, like Firefox and Chrome do. "Download now for <your OS here>." Would take some effort for that too, though, on our account and on the intermediary user.

Note that here, "unimplemented" actually implies that it was implemented at some point.
...And will hopefully be so once more shortly.

How odd. No, sprites don't work yet, but they shouldn't be segfaulting. That falls on Ism, though; I just iterate the structure by JNA's count.
Right now, not a whole lot is implemented. I removed most of it to make it easier to debug the important underlying components... That said, I should make a new newspost...

Freezway--
Yeah, it's in the later revisions. Sourceforge is back up now; give it another go.
