animation and "Type" code.

BlitzPlus Forums/BlitzPlus Programming/animation and "Type" code.

I am trying animation by the book. The book uses the code player:TPlayer = new TPlayer and the compiler says the Type must be in the main program and illegal type conversion.

I truncated the code to read player = TPlayer and it runs but I am at a loss to deal with the incorrect code.

The code uses the player.x = 400 code and I removed all the decimals so I have playerx = 400 and it runs. Again, I can't explain the difference.

Is there an example program to follow. The book has chapter 7 program 2 but it is finished so it runs but no code help, demo 07.2.

Is there any code examples for beginner use?

It's impossible to say without seeing the code you're using. And possibly knowing which book you're talking about.
