Yes, the key is to never give the output of a function to a declaration. It has to be on separate lines.
GLOBAL Tile
Tile = RND()...
wow, something so simple had me stumped =D
thanks guys

Apparently, you haven't read the GLBasic Club Rules.
Rule no1: There is no GLB Club.
Rule no2:. You never talk about GLB club.
Rule no3: You never assign value to a global variable on initialization (although help file says you can in several places).
=D =D =D
Somewhere on this forum there's mine thread asking the same thing and there are several others as well.
You can with RGB - thats the only one you can...
Make your life easier in the future, Never initialize a variable with the output from a function (unless it's RGB(), but I would be careful with that too).
GLOBAL x = 5 // Is fine
GLOBAL y = my_function() // Is not fine (except on every 5:th patch of GLBasic and only during full-moon :-)
GLOBAL z = RGB() // Should work but I try not to do it.
FUNCTION my_function: color = RGB() // should also work
FUNCTION my_function: string$ = MID$("HELLO", 2, 1) // won't work and probably gives funny error messages that you will spend hours trying to find :-)
