- I posted this before I carefully read the comments. I now know the OP already knew about SNAKE.BAT.dbenham– dbenham2013-12-01 05:02:56 +00:00Commented Dec 1, 2013 at 5:02
- that is fine, i had not understood the game as well before, and i learned more from this post than i did from reading through your code for three hours every night for a week. i had thought that the screen painting was for the snake effect, not optimization. i did wonder: is it better to set a line of enimies at the top, and execute code that changes what is displayed only if there is a hit, or is it better to re display it every time, so that the time for display always take the same amount of time. i guess you hit two birds with one stone. would it be too much to ask for you to explain cont.cure– cure2013-12-01 05:29:42 +00:00Commented Dec 1, 2013 at 5:29
- how i could implement a fixed amount of time in my code? i think i can figure the rest out, but i dont quite get that.cure– cure2013-12-01 05:31:13 +00:00Commented Dec 1, 2013 at 5:31
- @nephi12 - See my edited answer. If you have additional questions, then I suggest starting a new SO question for each specific programming topic. Your question here is a bit open ended for SO. Another alternative is to join DosTips and start a thread there. The format there is a bit more free form, with lots of back and forth and collaborative brain storming.dbenham– dbenham2013-12-01 15:02:08 +00:00Commented Dec 1, 2013 at 15:02

How to Edit
- Correct minor typos or mistakes

- Add related resources or links
- Always respect the author’s intent
- Don’t use edits to reply to the author
How to Format
- create code fences with backticks ` or tildes ~ ```
like so
``` - add language identifier to highlight code ```python
def function(foo):
print(foo)
``` - put returns between paragraphs
- for linebreak add 2 spaces at end
- _italic_ or **bold**
- indent code by 4 spaces
- backtick escapes
`like _so_` - quote by placing > at start of line
- to make links (use https whenever possible) <https://example.com>[example](https://example.com)<a href="https://example.com">example</a>
How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. python-3.x), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
