Loop within a function? Show me how
Blitz3D Forums/Blitz3D Beginners Area/Loop within a function? Show me how

| I made a program with several functions in it. Each function is basically a SEPERATE screen showing JPG images. The problem is I need a LOOP within each function and when I do try to make a loop, it NEVER shows the images that are suppose to be shown. Instead the program goes to the function and Freezes up. for example ;initiate settings and stuff ;MAIN GAME LOOP while not keydown(1) ; just 1 function if such and such thisscreen() endif wend function thisscreen() while not keydown(1); my loop that never works in the function drawimage 1,20,20 if such and such do this endif wend end function ;and this is where the program freezes up. How can I ;correctly add a CONDITIONAL loop to a FUNCTION? |

| are you still using cls and flip in the second loop? sometimes not flipping the buffers causes my computer to freeze. |

| drawimage 1,20,20 Are you even allowed to use numbers as variable names? sometimes not flipping the buffers causes my computer to freeze. This will never cause your computer to freeze.By not flipping the buffers, you never see anything that's been drawn to the backbuffer. But the program *is* still running. |

| Yeah, 1 probably isnt a valid image handle, as it's a memory pointer, and 1 is awfully low. |

| GFK IDK why it causes my comp to freeze maybe it is something about vista. It doesn't happen on my other comp. |
| ||
| put a 'flip' before 'wend' |

| Thanks I got it to work. |
