Can someone help me with BASIC...

Hi,

I'm doing an RPG in BASIC and I want to know a good method for switching between screens. The character walks to the edge of a screen and triggers the next screen to load, same as in the King's Quest series.

I'm very rusty and I'm spending a lot of time just figuring out what I want to do, so if you can give me a speed boost that would be great.

I got it, thanks for your help.
I'll post some screenshots as get further along. I'm using AD&D 2.5 edition rules in a child rearing sim. It's before you go to the fighter academy etc. you can pick up skills thieving, going to school, casual work and then finally adventuring.

I just started it in Qbasic, but I'm about to move it over to Blitz Basic.

Yeah I can do that, I just make the move freely section small and when you hit the edge it scrolls.
