When you draw your "bullet" with

drawoval (round (blt (i).x), round (blt (i).y), 10000, 10000, black)

You're making a circle of radius 10000 pixels. That might be somewhere around 10 times the width of your screen.

yeah, i was using that to figure out where my bullet was, but I changed that to 10 and determined that it was in the bottom left corner... ignore that part

[Raknarg]

var blt : array 1 .. round (Math.Distance (25, 25, 500 - 25, 500) / speed) of shot

What;s with that upper bound, first of all?

[Dreadnought]

I think he's calculated the maximum number of bullets he could ever possibly have on screen at any given time. The distance from (25,25) to (475,500) is probably the diagonal distance between opposite corners of the level zone. Since he only creates one bullet per frame, and he moves each bullet 5 pixels per frame, the most bullets he could ever have on screen is the distance divided by the displacement per frame (5 pixels).

exactly dreadnought
