oh and please i farly new just want to learn nothing else dont finsh the programm for me thx

[apython1992]

For future reference, it's easier for us to help when you use code/syntax tags that properly indent the code. Example:

code:

Use syntax tags: [syntax="turing"] put "HI!" [/syntax]

would yield:

Turing:

put "HI!"

As far as your actual question goes, it was difficult to understand. Are you asking how to trigger an event of some sort when you click on a country?

[Zren]

Do you know about arrays?

Risk is ... difficult to create without a knowing about nodes http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Node_(computer_science) . You would need a minimal knowledge of creating a node with a list of countries (nodes) it connects to.

Nodes are easily done with a class (OOP) structure, something you've probably not learned yet, and is angrily difficult in Turing.

[RandomLetters]

Are you willing to learn about arrays? If not, then you're life will be hell.

I don't think you necessarily need to use nodes. You could use a 2d array of connections between countries.
