I have a basic 2D sprite related game and the whole of darkbasic closes down when I shoot the enemy using space
Cannot include source code because it imports media. Email me for zip file containing source code + media

Help PLEASE

P.s. I'm using v1.13 ENHANCED

i have had this problem soooo many times, it's mad, apparently you need to get the latest version of db or dbpro (both cost) to solve the problem, i however just like to rewrite the entire thing.

Sounds like a codeing error to me. Also what does the error say? Im a DBP/DBC 2d programmer and might know a solution.

Yeah. What bug is it?
When does it occur?

Just give us the bad bit of the source code - we don't need to run it necessarily!

I have had this kind of problem too.... okay, I still have..

for me it happens almost everytime I delete a sprite.

f.ex:
if die=1 then delete sprite player:goto kill_player

this makes db crash almost everytime for me...
(not exactly this code, but close)


I am not cool anymore... or am I?

ico2,

It doesn't cost to get the latest version of DarkBASIC Classic.
It does, however, cost to buy the expansion pack for DBC.

Okay what Im guessing is your deleting an already deleted sprite... What you need to do is position the sprites X and Y coordinates to somewhere like 2000,2000 or whatever when it gets shot. Im not sure if thats the correct way but I do it all the time.

Note: I usually delete the sprite and move its X and Y coordinates to make sure it wont come back.

but wont that slow down the program?

if you have alot of x and y position data for stuff that is not even drawned!?

or do you use:
if sprite exist(x)=1
sprite x,xp,yp,mode
endif
?

(Yes, the code above IS valid - does nobody ever use the 'and' operator any more ???)
