PostPosted: Thu May 29, 2003 12:59 pm   Post subject: Game Timer

Hey, im in need of some help on my game. Im trying to make it so you can enter the time you want to play, and then you only play for that long, since its like a target-shooting game. Right now you can enter the time- but for some reason the text shows up white and you cant see what your entering. Also, with the timer counting down, theres a delay of (1000) which is putting a delay right in the game, which relaly sucks. If you can help me out that would be great. Theres also a sound in there, but i just made it a comment since you dont have the sound.

[/code]View.Set ("offscreenonly")
var x, y, button, bulletsleft, timeleft : int := 0

bulletsleft := 8

put "How long would you like your game to be, in seconds?"
get timeleft
cls

loop
timeleft := timeleft - 1
delay (1000)
%Bullets Left- Shown at the Top
locate (1, 1)
put "There are ", bulletsleft, " bullets left in the Clip", " ", timeleft, "seconds left"
%Crosshair
drawfillbox (x - 15, y - 1, x + 15, y + 1, white)
drawfillbox (x - 1, y - 15, x + 1, y + 15, white)
Mouse.Where (x, y, button)
if button = 1 and bulletsleft > 0 then
bulletsleft := bulletsleft - 1
%Music.PlayFile ("gunshot.wav")
else
%notshooting
drawfillbox (x - 15, y - 1, x + 15, y + 1, brightblue)
drawfillbox (x - 1, y - 15, x + 1, y + 15, brightblue)
View.Update
delay (10)

end if
if bulletsleft <= 0 then
bulletsleft := 0

end if



end loop
code:

also, the crosshair used to turn red when you fired, but it stopped working.  If anyone could fix that back for me that would be great too.
(ask me if you want bits, i dont even know what i can use em for)

you cant see what you're typing because you set your screen mode to "offscreenonly" and you dont call View.Update while typing Confused

for the timer, use clock() function.
code:

clock(c)
if c>= timeToQuit then
quit
end if
