wow your code is brutal. here's suggestions
1)indent code!!! i don't care that your new or you want to just get it to work. if u don't indent your code not only is it harder for you to read and debug but it is hard for ppl that are helping u. we will help more if u indent which is really easy to do!
2)why when i look at your instructions you call 2 message boxes? you can just say + vbNewLine to make another line. absolutely pointless to have 2 messages boxes!
3)please comment your code because there are some stuff in your code that i don't really understand the reason of u putting it there
as for randomizing the ship you can do it this way:
| code: |
Dim hiddenship As Integer Randomize hiddenship = Int(63 * Rnd) + 1 lblSquare(hiddenship).Caption = "H" |
Note: put this code in your form! this is just an example for u to see that wherever "H" is thats where the ship is
thats insane for wat your program does. to be honest with u i could make a good battleship game probably under half the lines of code u have! u have so much pointless code and some of it i just can't even understand why? u should start from scratch learn control arrays better and basically look through a lot of vb tutorials. asside from that note i don't see u randomizing for a ship for one thing, even though i showed u how. wat do u mean by u can't get collision working? wat collision? be more specific. you should look at some previous battle ship game programs made and look how they made it maybe you'll get an idea. also comment your code it will help u and especially me to understand it better. good luck with this game!
