just a quick question as i've gotta go do something for a few hours so kinda expect an answer from someone ...

is it possible to read data statements direct from included files?

if not then i guess i'll have to rewrite the data reading function in my array compiler - would rather not, but if i have to

I might be a littel confused about exactly what your asking but here is what I tried. if the data stament in in a function that is part of an included file then I had no problem accessing it. However, if the included file only contained a data stament I got an answer of 0 (Darkbasic autoassigning values because it couldn't see the Data statment)

So basically I think you are going to have to rewrite your data reading function like you figured you'd have to. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

What if you would store your data allready like array, which you can save or load to file and then simple reload data you need from one array to another??

lol... i'm making an array saver function (or rather was)

where what you did was write out the data for the array, and then you could use the exe to compile that data into a game array

data dwDataCount
data "..",-> dwDataCount

that way me and Rose could just precompile a game array by adding extra elements onto the chart - i've changed it now just to go by the files within a directory to array the data, then compress them into a packaged file

crude but effective
