Need help with Mouse.Where

[Dittatore]

Mouse.Where (x, y, button)
if x >= 323 and x <= 328 and y >= 195 and y <= 205 and button = 1 then
drawfilloval (x, y, 10, 10, black)
end if


Can anyone please tell me how to repeat "if x >= (n) and x <= (n) and y >= (n) and y<= (n) and button = 1 then" without actually typing that almost exact line 225 times?

[Nathan4102]

CODE:

for i : 1..225   %insert code here end for

This would repeat the code inbetween the for's 225 times. Is this what you're looking for?

Elaborate please, by repeat do mean to do it over and over again, if so you can just use a loop, and also you can simplify your second if statement of "if x >= (n) and x <= (n) and y >= (n) and y<= (n) and button = 1 then" to "if x = (n) and y = (n) and button = 1 then", that would only be if you are using the same number for all of them, otherwise you should call them differently like "if x >= (n) and x <= (a) and y >= (b) and y<= (e) and button = 1 then", you can use the for loop like Nathan said, or if you do not know how many times you want to repeat it just use

Turing:

loop exit when (condition for breaking loop) end loop

Sorry, I should've make it more clear.
The code should be "if x >= (n) and x <= (a) and y >= (b) and y<= (e) and button = 1 then". The number for (n), (a), (b), (e) would be different each time.

The answer to your question very much depends on what the expected values of n, a, b, and e are. If they are multiples of each other, or have some sort of distinguishable pattern, then yes, this can be easily done in a few simple lines of code.

What exactly is it that you're trying to do here? A full explanation would help a lot with figuring out how to help you

I'm trying to make a game called Gomoku.

The gameplay should be like this

I think he more meant the point of that code in general
