Hey All,
Work continues on the Zelda clone - i'm doin ok; i've switched from static screens to a scrolling screen setup but in the transition, for some reason my main sprite is'nt showing up. Any ideas?

Cheers All,

LOAD IMAGE "Sprite.bmp",20
GET IMAGE 20,0,0,32,32

You don't load an image, and then get an image. You are actually grabbing nothing.

Remove the get image.

Yeah, i only had the GET IMAGE in as an afterthought, coz it still does'nt work when i delete it. I'm kinda thinking that the scenery tiles are being displayed on top of my avatar - what d'ya think?

Sprites are supposed to be on top of everything. I can see some odd programming, like all the CLS 50, but I can't figure out what is causing your problem. Maybe using load inside a function, that's unusual, try a subroutine.

the problem is you are trying to put the main sprite at location
1600,1600
*********************
px = 1600
py = 1600

DO
SPRITE 1,px,py,20
*************************


That is no doubt off the screen.......try making px = 0 and py = 0 and you will no doubt see the sprite again.

Oh and obviosuly get rid of the get image

Cheers all,

I set the sprite to appear at px = 0 : py = 0, and it did the trick! The help is much appreciated.

Bye,
Dave
