Hi Joseph,
Yep, a spin, whirl, sudden drop, sudden turn, upside down 6 times at 60 miles an hour
with your feet dangling in mid air, and all of that kind of fun. <grin>
I really do wish that we could play Roller Coaster Tycoon.
TGIF and BFN

Hi Dark,
That's cool. The only version of Oregon Trail that I have played was a GW
Basic version. Seems though that it is a very stripped down version. I
was told that it is nothing like the original Apple 2e version.
Yes, the original GW Basic version of the golf game had only 3 courses to
play. I added 3 and saw that the courses themselves only took a few
numbers and descriptions to define them, so I then made the golf course
maker program so that others could also make courses for the game. The
original golf game was pure text with no sounds. And you typed in the
amount of power to hit for your shot. So I added all of the sounds
including the power indicator sound thing. However the original did have
some ASCII graphics that were pretty cool. I stripped those out though as
they would some times try to be spoken by a screen reader. The trucker
game was also pure text with no sounds at all.
I would love to make a Roller Coaster Tycoon type sim, but I am not sure
that it wouldn't be over my head to try something like that. I really
have never programmed a sim. Maybe I should start out trying a simple one
and see how that goes.

The last sound that it made was "Zap" .
