ok..my game is working just fine....i need to improve it....alot though
what i can't do is looping the game over after it's done....like make start all over when a player wins....

another problem is whoever tried it out said that player 2 can win way easier than player 1 can can u help me locate the weakness in player1..( i did give each a player an advantge..player1's shot damages more but covers less space..and vice versa for the other one)

and please tell how can improve my game in anyway!!
thanx alot....in advance

you need to loop your main program. at the bottom of the program, you have

code:
var choice : string := ""
loop     %A loop for movement and shooting (playing the game)
    boundaries
    Input.KeyDown (move)
%...
       locate (12, 50)
        put "PLAYER 1  : ", player1.counter
    end if
    player1.victory := 0
    View.Update
end if


You need to loop all of this, and you need to reset your player variables.

code:
player1.health := 100
player1.counter := 0
%etc...


Remember to put this in the new loop. (after the origional loop and the victory screen settings)

Some people like to put that in a proc, my friends call its hskg...short for house keeping, but whatever you want works (I use resetVariables)
