Brick breaker in Turing?

-----------------------------------

What is it you are trying to achieve?
I have to make a brick breaker game for my summative in Programming class.



What is the problem you are having?
I'm not sure how to animate the ball and the sliding bar,
or how to make the bricks disappear when the ball hits it.


Describe what you have tried to solve this problem
I tried using google, the Turing booklet, and this website and I've gotten nowhere :|


Post any relevant code (You may choose to attach the file instead of posting the code if it is too long)
this is what I've got so far;




setscreen ("nocursor") 
setscreen ("graphics:vga") 
setscreen("graphics:400;500") 
var x1, x2, y1, y2, xc, yc : int
var x, vely, velx:int                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          
var c, t:int 
var chars:int
drawfillbox (30, 450, 100, 480, 103)
drawfillbox (110, 450, 180, 480, 103)
drawfillbox (190, 450, 260, 480, 103)
drawfillbox (270, 450, 350, 480, 103)

drawfillbox (60, 400, 140, 430, 81)
drawfillbox (160, 400, 240, 430, 81)
drawfillbox (260, 400, 340, 430, 81)

drawfillbox (32, 350, 102, 380, 103)
drawfillbox (110, 350, 180, 380, 103)
drawfillbox (190, 350, 260, 380, 103)
drawfillbox (270, 350, 350, 380, 103)

drawfillbox (60, 300, 140, 330, 81)
drawfillbox (160, 300, 240, 330, 81)
drawfillbox (260, 300, 340, 330, 81)




Please specify what version of Turing you are using
4.1.1

-----------------------------------

Lets start with a sliding bar.

You need to be able to draw it (I see you know how to draw boxes already). You need to be able to read used input to control it -- collision detection.

All of those concepts will also come in useful when you start dealing with a ball.

Turing Walkthrough is an excellent resource that will point you to a variety of great tutorials.
