Well lets hope within a week mine is here. I ordered the Game Creater Mega Pack thingy.

Atleast that gives me a time line to follow now. Say 7 days to finish my game plan.

ifman, you still need to learn a lot You don't need to write your own function there, all you need is "MAKE GAME style$, hero$, enemy$, plot$" and DBP does it all for you...

Smile and be happy, things could be worse!

Does it have a MakePatch(version) function, too? Sometimes I wish DB had one of those; well, one that runs faster than a couple of frames per year, anyway!

Just joking! I know DB'll be bug-free eventually!

The command you should be most interested in is : WorhsipMrTAToad(numberOfTimes,timeInterval,offerings$)

Good news everyone! I really am THAT good...

Yes, I've used that a couple of times. Unfortunately, I forgot to add the offerings string once - my computer suffered every crash and error Windows could muster! And, as we all know, that's a lot of errors!

Now, to be on the safe side, I always check that the offering is present and compatible with the function!

you know there is a secret extra function to that and the command should read...

WorhsipMrTAToad(numberOfTimes,timeInterval,offerings$[,accountnumber$])

i'm not sure what the last command does exactly, as the help says your suppose to enter the number on any Mastercard/Visa/AmericanExpress/Switch you have in xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx format followed by your name in brackets. now i did that and it comes up with this ->



Ian told me the only way to get around it was to make sure you entered your card number exactly like
"1628-1038-1832-0912 (Mr. T.A. Toad)"
now i'm not sure why this is, but it seemed to clear the problem
