Right now, all i've got to program with is Pro.

Can some one test this to make sure it runs in Classic? You'll need a joystick.

It gives runtime error at line 293 (which is the end of the main loop, so it's not the right line) - image does not exist.

When I remmed out this section of code, it kept running:

oh. You were running inside DBC right?(most likely,right?) oh well. I might just go ahead and right this one in DBP, because it seems to only want to work in it!

Thanks for the help tho.....Did you try the exe, LBFN?

Could be "Untitled.png" that's in error then.

DBC often makes a habit of not registering an error until it reaches the next Sync command - especially if its tied in with graphics or objects.

Haven't got my joystick connected up at the moment, what's the code for? Is it a 2D tile map level?

Its got transparency, might that have someting to do with it?

Actually, i was coding a little demo of an Rts, for my cousin who just got DBPRO, to show him what it can do. then, it started looking cooler and cooler, and then I thought about DBC

Ah, sounds like fun.

DBC doesn't like transparency, but it accepts it - it just puts it to a block color fill of something like RGB(128,128,128). Possibly the PNG file format isn't recognised, I think there are multiple types...

Weird............I dont get it.....could it be the transparency, or............what? Well, i've got 2 more days up here so i guess i'll look into it when i get home. Strange tho, i've used images with transparecy in DBC before.........maybe its somthing else.

@DD
It has something to do with your map array I think. DBPro and DBC may not save the array with the same values. In the code where you loop through the images to tile on layers:

+ Code Snippet

rem This is the "for....next" loop that "Prints" the map
REM Even more useful if you were to make a function
REM out of it.....
for layer = 0 to 3

   for x = 1 to mapsizeX
      for y = 1 to mapsizeY

      if Map(x,y,layer) > 0 and layer = currentlayer then paste image Map(x,y,layer),(x*32) - ScrollX#,(y*32) - ScrollY#
      if Map(x,y,layer) > 0 and layer = currentlayer then paste image Map(x,y,layer),( (x)*32 ) - ScrollX#,( (y)*32 ) - ScrollY#
      if Map(x,y,layer) > 0 and layer = currentlayer then paste image Map(x,y,layer),( (x)*32 ) - ScrollX#,( (y)*32 ) - ScrollY#,1

      next y
   next x

next layer

The values returned from Map(x,y,layer), are above 5000 and I don't think you have any image assigned to those numbers.

Enjoy your day.

+ Code Snippet

for layer = 0 to 3

   for x = 1 to mapsizeX
      for y = 1 to mapsizeY

      if Map(x,y,layer) > 0 and layer = currentlayer then paste image Map(x,y,layer),(x*32) - ScrollX#,(y*32) - ScrollY#
      if Map(x,y,layer) > 0 and layer = currentlayer then paste image Map(x,y,layer),( (x)*32 ) - ScrollX#,( (y)*32 ) - ScrollY#
      if Map(x,y,layer) > 0 and layer = currentlayer then paste image Map(x,y,layer),( (x)*32 ) - ScrollX#,( (y)*32 ) - ScrollY#,1

      next y
   next x

next layer

Why are you going through all the layers? I know this doesn't have anything to do with your question, but i have to ask. You only paste if the layer = currentLayer. So why not just go through the tiles on currentLayer? like this:

   for x = 1 to mapsizeX
      for y = 1 to mapsizeY

      if Map(x,y,currentlayer) > 0 then paste image Map(x,y,currentlayer),(x*32) - ScrollX#,(y*32) - ScrollY#
      if Map(x,y,currentlayer) > 0 then paste image Map(x,y,currentlayer),( (x)*32 ) - ScrollX#,( (y)*32 ) - ScrollY#
      if Map(x,y,currentlayer) > 0 then paste image Map(x,y,currentlayer),( (x)*32 ) - ScrollX#,( (y)*32 ) - ScrollY#,1

      next y
   next x

I would suggest adding a 'image exist' call in there lol

Quote: "It has something to do with your map array I think. DBPro and DBC may not save the array with the same values. In the code where you loop through the images to tile on layers:"

That popped into my head a couple of hours ago......

@Caleb1994
Yea, ur right, i'm calling it when layer = currentlayer, so that needs to be optimized. must have been the "other me" programming.

Ha I hate those days...

A few days later... You look back and think 'What idiot did this!?' or 'There's my memory leak!'(not as applicable to dbc though as all your memory is managed)

latch mentioned putting it in a function. Just a suggestion, but you could put it in a function like 'DrawMap(offsetx, offsety, layer)' although i don't know how you handle your offsets, but you get the picture.

EDIT:

Oh btw that quote was in no way intended to call you a idiot

just realized, it might be taken the wrong way. lol
