Hi again. As a side note I recently noticed that I had not uploaded the sources of the game to the repository in Defence-Force.

I got so used to the cloud drive services (Dropbox, OneDrive,...) that I seldomly use SVN.

Anyway here they are, in case anybody wants to have a look:
http://miniserve.defence-force.org/svn/users/chema/

P.S. I just noticed I have all my games under the users subtree, except Space:1999 which is under the games subtree (?)

What I really need to do is cleaning up the sources in the release. I keep a lot of old code in comments or #ifdef clauses and when it works I forget to remove it (I always think "just in case..").

I do this in the code I write at work (I code less and less with time, to be honest), but never find the time and energy to do it in my Oric programs :/

Did you do all the graphics directly in binary? I was expecting to see some pictures, but apparently there are none.
Just wondering :)

Good point. I must have the bitmaps, but I am using a Matlab script to section them into tiles and creating the data. Then I copy paste them, so no way to automate that. Anyway I could upload them just for the records...

Matlab really ? :D

Wow that quite an expensive setup for making Oric game :D ;)

Indeed :) I use it at work, so... Besides it is quite handy for this kind of tasks.
