As I examine DBpro, I cannot help wondering how you would go about handling multiple levels in your game. I understand you can handle one level all in your main loop, but how would you handle having a second level? Would you create a second main loop that deletes the current level and loads the second level?

Thanks for your insight in advance.

YEs, you make a fuction when the first level is completed it is deleted and the next one is loaded.

If it hasn't exploded yet, I haven't touched it.

You can split each level into its own loop, but it's far more efficient and much better practice to make a function that removes the old level and replaces it with the new one while using the same mechanics and stuff in the loop, as Madscientist suggested.


It will rise...
