3 weeks after i buy the blue book, it goes online......well, thats just my luck.........USE IT WELL FELLOW PROGRAMMERS!
Heh....
Maybe that will help me since I don't have a credit card to purchase one and I'm too lazy to convert Canadian cash.

hey thats kool, now i can deside if it was worth buying or not. Having a hard copy would be good though, it was not a bad purchase, you would have hated it if you had to look stuff up online all the time.

Don't forget you also have a year's access to BYONDscape! :)

Plus, the Blue Book is easier to use, you don't have to be online, it also makes good reading for trips, way better than just printing out a copy, plus, I don't see any footnotes on the online version; but I haven't really looked indepth at it.

yea, byondSCAPE is cool....but still.........i can pretty much use the computer when ever i want, and when would u need to look sumthing up if ur not on the copmputer programming? Well, i guess there's a bright side to everything.

Lol i just printed out 60 of the 100 pages of it and im still considering buying a copy of the blue book even if ive got it printed out. Seems like a good investment.

I do most of my initial byond coding on paper.

Im usually nowhere near a computer when im hit with the sudden realization of how to code a specific item
