Function to generate random within specific range

Code: Select all

u16 randomNumberGenerator(u16 finishInt) {
    u16 x = 0;
    do {
        x = random();
    } while (x <= 0 || x > finishInt);
        return x - 1;
}
Is this the best way to be doing it?

u16 randomNumberGenerator(10) would give me random 1 to 10

I can't get this code to work!! struct Script { char type; union { struct { char charName[24]; char charDialogue[480]; } CharacterDialogue; struct { char menuItem1[24]; char menuItem2[24]; char menuItem3[24]; char menuItem4[24]; char menuItem5[24]; char menuItem6[24]; }...

Re: two dimension char array

I just wanted to confirm I now put this in rom by declaring it static. In fairness I hadn't noticed in code that I wasn't!

I'm using the array to store conversation. There is a fair bit of wastage as not every piece of discussion populates it's full allocation

Re: Is it possible to 'scale' sprites?

Jon Burton is quoted as saying this in an interview that interests me :) The title was released for Mega Drive and SNES in late 1994, with an expanded version released for the Mega CD shortly after. Burton comments that the CD format offered the company the chance to push their games further. “We lo...
