Hi! I am very new (4 days ago) to Turing. As my first project, I am creating Pong. In one of my game modes, I would like to make a countdown timer but have no clue at all on how to. I am also having difficulty making the middle boarder line. I would prefer to use Draw.FillBox but I do not know what the quardanents or anything are. If I could get help, it would be greatly apreciated!



Thanks, Joystick

Sorry but I forgot one thing... I am wondering if there is a way to publish a program after I am finished? Not sure if it affects anything but I am running Windows XP Services Pack 2 as an OS.



Thanks, Joystick

If you're using Turing 4.1 or any version of Open Turing (4.1.1 cannot do this), you can generate a stand-alone program (.EXE) through the Run menu.

Dang, I am using 4.1.1...

4.1 will do that though?


Thanks, Joystick

Yes, or open turing if you want.

As for your other problem, there are some good tutorials on graphics and collision. There may even be a couple Pong tutorials.
