I can mail you some example code if you like. That'd be nice! :-) I know Lachie has ported a good map scrolling tutorial to FreeBASIC that will be a great start for you. I've tried googling for it, but nothing turns up... does anyone have a link for a RTS or map scrolling tutorial? regards, h4tt3n[...

Is it too long to post here?

Hello, I'm fairly new to FB and I'm in need of some advice... I want to make a simple real-time strategy game that is played on a large square "board" or piece of landscape. Only a small bit of the square is displayed on the screen, and when moving the mouse toward the borders of the scree...

Thanks everyone!

CLS

'Calculate and draw here

I'll try those solutions out and see what happens.

Cool, thanks! :-D

This problem really bugged me.

Hello! I'm a complete noob at FB, but I've been programming C64 BASIC for years ;-D As a startup practice I've been making a very simple graphical simulation of some planets circling a sun in the middle of the screen. I've been using COS(x) and SIN(x) to create a circular movement and CIRCLE to draw...

Hello!

Can anyone tell me which non-string variable can contain a hex value?

If this cant be done, how do I use a string containing a hex value as an integer?

Example:

Circle (x, y), z, &h(variable containing color hex value)


thanks,
