| I'm having right grief getting my head round types. i understand oop and methods and classes and everything, but i just can't seem to apply it in blitz plus. im trying to create a list of "skeets" (like clay pigeons) that fly across the screen at random intervals, with random images (small, medium or large), at random heights, with random arcs etc etc etc. heres what i have done: Type skeet Field ystart=Rnd(scrh/2,scrh-20) ;random starting height Field xstart=-20 ;off screen until needed Field speed = Rnd(1,10) Field size = Rnd(1,3);will determine image to be used Field curveheight ; i'll use trig to do this bit later Field launch=Rnd(1,30000) launch time from start of round Field idnum ;id number of skeet End Type For init = 1 To 150 ;create a list of 150 skeets game.skeet=New skeet ;add a skeet Next ;; this bit above seems to work ok. just to see if the skeets were displaying i did the following bit: while not keydown(1) cls For game.skeet=Each skeet DrawImage med,game/x,game/y ;;"med" is the image handle for the medium size skeet game/x=game/x+game/speed ;; update the positions Next wend when i run this i get "Expecting 'next' " at each of the slashes in the last two statements. I thought that maybe i had to use dot notation, but this resulted in a "type 'x' not found" error. i know im probably missing something obvious, but i cant see it for looking. can anyone help me please?

| Replace the forward slashes (/) for back slashes (\) in these two lines... DrawImage med,game\x,game\y game\x=game\x+game\speed Btw, you've posted in the BlitzMax forum, there are separate forum areas for BlitzPlus/Blitz3D ;) |
