I got to the point where i can randomize the blocks 2 fall down but now i need to get them to dissapear when they form a line. How do I do that? \[/quote]

well assuming you're using a 2D array to store your blocks, all you have to do to remove a full line is to move all the lines above it down 1 step.

code:

if line(x) is full

for i: x to maxline - 1
line(i) := line(i+1)
end for

end if


something like above. Ofcourse you'd need to have 2 forloops to move the lines down since you'll be doing it block by block.
