Beginning of a flying game

This is the beginning of a flying game
I've included the beginning code

Sharing is good, but if you're going to post a whole whack of small programs you've made, please do so in the same post so as not to spam the forum.

A comment: use whitespace!

Well this partially moves and rotates some pictures, though I can't be sure because I don't actually have any appropriate pictures lying around..

[didsbub]

Just look for some plane pictures on google

[Cervantes]

You won't get many comments on your program if people have to search for pieces of your puzzle.

[didsbub]

I've added the plane and background pictures for the program

Would play your game, but it seems to not load the pictures, because you posted .gifs, and .gifs are not supported..., and I don't feel like changing the format (yes I AM that lazy)[/b]

turing v4.1 supports GIFs

What is this Turing 4.1 that you are talking about? I remember it being mentioned a few days back... Is it out? Any proof of this?

It's easy to just say something like that because the Turing help file said it would be included when the licence ran out (past time now), but that they are actually releasing something...

Yes, it is out i have it at my house. It's just as good as turing 4.0 though...or at least in my own opinion. 4.1 has been out for quite a while

Haven't seen it yet, and I don't know where do's teacher got it from so quickly - but it's supposedly available through the bureaucracy that provides software to Ontario schools.

Here's the proof:

From their site (osapac):

Quote:

TURING 4.1 is a programming language with an easy-to-learn syntax and is supported by a student-friendly programming environment. It is suitable for use in computer studies courses in grades 9 through 12 including the Computing and Information Science and the Computer Engineering courses. Turing 4.1, adds a number of new features that have been asked for by teachers and students: "¢ Sprites, making it easier for students to write programs that use animation "¢ Importation of GIF images, including multiple framed images, allowing students to incorporate images created in other programs, or from clipart libraries "¢ Special effects for displays of images: wipes, fade-ins, blurs, and blends, allowing students to programmatically produce sophisticated graphical displays These features encourages students to write programs that demonstrate their understanding of programming concepts, while allowing them to produce pleasing graphical displays. This motivates them to learn even more by complementing the pedagogical concepts underlying their programs.

That's awesome, latest announcement on HoltSoft's site is about 4.0.3

So who here knows anyone in osapac?

[mod:7071486423="Cervantes"]Flaming is against the rules. You have been warned.[/mod:7071486423]

Yeah 4.1 is out, i got it during summer for $20.

*can't wait for the Turing 4.1 Update post*

This update was unexpected... at least to me.

[Edit]Oh, and multidimensional flexible arrays without any tricks would be nice!
