how to generate different odds of winning?

[yingmu]

i doing a horse racing game and i don't know how to generate different winning odds for each horse, pleaz help! and also how to make it so that when a picture move only one picture will appear without a whole bunch overlapping?

[guttface]

you could cls the whole screen and redraw it with the picture in the new position. also, you might be able to xor it but im not exactly sure how that works. as for the odds, you could use randint:

code:

randint(var_name, lower_bound,upper_bound)

to return a random number to be used for odds, and then maybe tie that number into the speed of the horse

[guttface]

i forgot- u'll need to use

code:

setscreen("offscreenonly") View.Update

tp prevent flickering when you redraw the screen

Because the teacher also happen to use this site, and these people like to procrastinate till the last moment, so they contact the teachers the only way they know how: compsci.ca.
