Not got a pandora but are you using SYSTEMPOINTER FALSE? If so try it with TRUE and see if that cures it. Kitty has said that when its set to false it reads the mouse values in a slightly different way
In the mainloop insert something likeCode: (glbasic) [Select]if gunfired=1
arc=90
firestate=1
gunfired=0
endif
if firestate=1
gosub paintgun
inc arc,2
endif
if arc=272
firestate=0
endif
I want royalyties
Warning - some keyboards (read: about 99%) cannot give you all keys simultanously - I think you can't detect more than 5 keys pressed at once. Test it with the Tools/Keycodes program in the editor.
Shouldn't be a problem, as i am only assigning each player 1 or 2 buttons.
Thanks for the tips. Will give it a try.

I have been mailing back and forth with Gernot about this, but it is not going to work out of the box.
I have a Standard Pandora machine running hotfix 4. When I compile a game for the Pandora (build for other platform) and copy the Pandoramake directory to the Pandora and try to compile it does not work properly.
There is an install script to install all the libraries needed to compile. The script gave a lot of errors, so I had to strip all the gui stuff out and just run the lib install lines. It worked. Now when I compile, I get a lot of compile errors. It doesn't seem to understand the GLBASIC language.
Gernot gave me an e-mail regarding reinstalling the libs, but it all seems fine when I try to reinstall. I really need a working install script for everything needed on the Pandora, but I'm not getting any reply when I ask for that.
Is there anyone who has gotten it to work....compiling a game on tha Pandora, for the Pandora?
There's only what, about 700-800 Pandora units in the world? And they're on HotFix 4 "already". Pandora is currently a moving target, so I wouldn't expect stability to be a huge feature yet - which makes keeping up problematical for any software developer. Including, I imagine, the dev behind GLBasic.
Quoted:\\glbasic
Is that just a typo (re: the extra "\")?
That SPRCOLL check is saying:
"Will the player sprite, if it was at (x,y) collide with a terrain sprite if it was also at (x,y)"
That should always return true, since with that check both sprites would always be overlapping.
Sprites don't really exist/persist anywhere, think of them more as a BitBlt (blit) function.
Ie, to display them you just tell GLBasic to copy the bitmap to the screen at a certain location.
After that, the sprite doesn't exist at that position.
So, in general, the SPRCOLL check is asking:
"If I were to place sprite 1 at position x1, y1, would it collide with sprite 2 if I positioned it at x2, y2?"
So, you would need 25 SPRCOLL checks if you have 25 different terrain tiles.
If the terrain is in a tile map, a simple nested for loop (row, column) could be set up to check if the player would be colliding with each terrain tile.
Quotesprcoll ([id_of_player], x_of_player, y_of_player, [id_of_terrain_sprite, x_of_player, y_of_player]))
Did you type that wrong, or did you mean for the 2nd 'x_of_player', 'y_of_player' to refer to the terrain, such as:Code: (glbasic) [Select]SPRCOLL (player_id, player_x, player_y, terrain_id, terrain_x, terrain_y)
That should work.
