If you don't know what it is, click here.

Anyways, I'm really stuck on making Simon.. the main thing I have a problem with is figuring out getting the loop to increase by one each time nd all that stuff.

Does anybody have a sample Simon game or bits of code or any advice so that I could look as as a guideline for making my program.

Thank you very much in advance.

Do you have some code we could maybe see where you might be going wrong?

You mention "getting loops to increment every time"

this can be done with
Turing:
var x : int :=0
loop
    x++
end loop


now whats "all that stuff" you're referring to?

Basically I'm stuck with the whole function of the game... I have the graphics so the machine with the colours.. and the machines light changes according to... shit okay..

I have 20 integers that go random before the loop, from 14, 1 = yellow, 2 = blue, 3 = green, red = 4. And if the first int is 3, then green turns on for example. And I get the loop counter, but I don't understand like getting it to loop what is has so far er.. it's weird. Please help T_T

Ok, for anyone else that might want to help, including myself, please post some code. whatever you have. Im assuming youre doing something like
Turing:
var red, blue, green, yellow :int :=0
red := 4
green:=3
blue:=2
yellow:=1

Rand.Int(??) %not too sure what youre randomizing here though

that code will not run in Turing CompWiz333 Laughing

Turing doesn't have the increment operator such as that. instead, use a for loop, or a counter within a loop:

Turing:

for i : 1 .. 100
    put i
end for

var i : int := 0

loop
    i += 1
    put i
    exit when i = 100
end loop

OP delivers after 6 years! This thread could be amazing.

So... do we get to see the finished product? I'd imagine after 6 years it should have quite some level of quality to it!

Sorry I don't have a copy of the game anymore.

Thanks for the help though!
