Hi!

I'm learning simple programming so I can make a simple game at first. I was go over a tutorials and I don't really understand Functions. Is their a good tutorial to help me with my problem. I tried the one at http://www.darkbasic.com/create/bm_tutorials/ but that doesn't help.

Thanks
Skunky

functions are used to eighter make your own commands or to make 1 command of a list of commands.

example of making your own command:



now you can use your self made command by typing:



this will print "your text here" 10 to the right and 15 pixels down on the screen.

example of making 1 command of a list of commands:



you could yust use the print command every time but when your programming a game you will have to use things multiple times so it's handy if you make a single command for a list of commands which your gonna use multiple times.

i hope this helps.
