whatdotcolour if a funtion that will return a value of the colour somehwere on the screen. the coordinates you put in has to be less than maxx and maxy.
ex:
code:

var col, mx, my, mb:int
loop
mousewhere (mx, my, mb)
locate (1, 1)
put whatdotcolour (mx, my)
end loop


this will return the colour where the mouse is

is there a way to make it like ... lets say...

If thisline goes over this color then
score:=score+100
end if

i kno that makes nos esnes and its in like english not programming but do u see where i'm coming from....

you need a value to draw the line in the first place right? suppose the coordinates is (x2, y2) use:
code:

if whatdotcolour (x2, y2)= (the colour you want as an integer) then
score+=100
end if

check it after each time you change the value of x2, y2

also, if you pm dodge_tomahawk, he would love to tell you everything about whatdotcolour and every other thing that you don't need to know.

you can use a for loop, and use the variable (usu. i) to determine the radii of the oval

so.... what are you trying to do again?

this is what i have...
code:

 procedure mouse

   var mousex, mousey, button : int

    mousewhere (mousex, mousey, button)
    if button = 1 then
   
   
        drawoval (mousex, mousey, 25, 25, 13)
       
       
    end if
end mouse


loop
cls
mouse
delay(25)
View.Update
end loop


see how when you click it kinda just... draws a circle... well i want it go start from where u click and expand to 25... then implode back to 0... u see??? but i need it to not be in a loop because it will get trapped in it... i need it in a procedure or something you know... i have a loop at the end of my game... and i guess i could make some in a procedure then put rest in that loop... i don't know do you get what i'm saying??

so.... ? i'm not sure about no looping part, that's not my strong point.
code:


   var mousex, mousey, button : int

loop

    mousewhere (mousex, mousey, button)
    if button = 1 then
    for i:1..25
            drawoval (mousex, mousey, i, i, 13)
            View.Update
            delay (10)
            cls
    end for
    for decreasing i:25..1
   
        drawoval (mousex, mousey, i, i, 13)
       View.Update

        delay (10)
        cls
    end for
       
    end if

end loop

aside has got it, you need a decreasing for loop after the first for loop.

see
code:

 procedure mouse

   var mousex, mousey, button : int
    mousewhere (mousex, mousey, button)
    if button = 1 then
   
    for rad: 1..25
    cls
        drawoval (mousex, mousey, rad, rad, 66)
    delay(25)   
    end for   
   
   
    for decreasing rad: 25..1
    cls 
            drawoval (mousex, mousey, rad, rad, 66)
    delay(25)
    end for
    end if
end mouse


loop
cls
mouse
delay(25)
View.Update
end loop

if i put something else in the loop say one of my misiles for the game (missile command) the missile lags until the mouse procedure is finished.... is there any way to get around this and still have the same Mouse Procedure affect ... i really need this anyone knows??

is there a limit of boolets you can shoot? if so, then it would be easier to do.

if you are sick and tired of this, you can just use fork. it's not recommended, but if you are just lazy, go ahead.
