My game keeps getting caught at the part where it is supposed to check the coordinates

Could you provide your data files (zip the project if possible). As I don't really want to decipher it's data structure.

Also, what do you mean by, "getting caught". Do you mean it gives an error? If it does, which ones? What does it say?

By getting caught I mean the program forever says it is executing without actually doing what it is meant to do

I believe I've made a post on your other thread, but I'll just repost it here:

Turing:

        for e : 1 .. (lengthword - 1)
            for f : 0 .. 4
                for g : 0 .. 4
                    if table (f, g) = guess (e) then
                        row := f
                        col := g
                    elsif table (f, g) = guess (e + 1) then
                        row1 := f
                        col1 := g
                    end if
                end for
            end for
            xcoord := row1 - row
            ycoord := col1 - col


xcoord and ycoord in this case would only be applicable to the last and second last letters of the word if both letters are in the table

Try recording the xcoord and ycoord of each individual letter, then checking a letter relative to the previous one.
