Hello

Is there a way to make a snowing scene in Turing?

Thanks

Yes.

How would you do it? Is there a simple way?

Look up the draw function in turing, using either F10 or the Turing Walkthrough; the latter maybe more helpful for you.

Simple is up to you on how complex in details you wish to go into.

simple is a pretty broad term

but it doesn't have to be complicated I guess...

I know how to draw and I saw someones example on the forum, but is there a way that is basic? Like which basic turing functions would I need?

Draw.Star, Draw.Oval, Draw.Box, colorback, View.Set, Draw.Line, Draw.ThickLine, Draw.Fill, Draw.Arc.

Those are the basic Turing functions you may need. Decide what you want to draw, then draw it. Want to draw a tree? Use boxes and lines. House? boxes & lines. Snow? draw some lines and Draw.Fill.

To actually make a snow scene look 3 dimensional and realistic, you would need more than some "simple" code. But the most basic ones would involve loop, Draw.FillOval, cls, delay, etc.
