Update: text background color support
Update: some debug features..
Update: 'help' function and basic error handling
If you enter "Connect 123456" where 123456 is a THREAD ID, it will try to connect to that cart.
Please only use valid BBS locations.
To test your pico-8 BBS terminal emulator, try going to 55648
And to test a simple cart 'bbs' that accepts input, try out 55941
Next up is going to be a CNS -- Cart Name Server -- to store registered BBS cart locations you can connect to.
NOTE: From my testing, this should work in the desktop version of pico8. But it's pretty buggy on the forum so far. I'm thinking it has to do with how the web player in the forum handles some of the keyboard input differently vs in the desktop version of pico8.
Works pretty good ! Can't see a way to get back the original cart that called it though.
Thanks.
It should return to the original cart immediately. But since it's just a proof of concept there isn't much to do.
This was really cool, and "connecting" via multi card blew my mind. 🤯 Love this!
