My game started getting a little big with all the code, so I started creating functions. Now nothing works. Specifically, it seems that my objects are not displaying. How can I get them up so that I can create them in 1 function and reference them in another? I don't get errors now, but they just don't display.

Hi, please post code when you come across a problem like this, it makes it a lot easier for anyone trying to help you.

try adding a sync when your model have been made or loaded.

Yes, let's see some of your code.

One thing to remember about functions is that any variables used in them are local, unless you've declared them as global.

Ok, I put all the functions in the main program and I get the exact same results. I was having problems with the variable like you said, so I started passing them in as parameters.

Here's what I have:



I'm building a dungeon off of the tutorial, so a lot of the code might look familiar.

No joystick here, so I can't test your code, sorry.

I dont' think it should matter if you have a joystick or not. If you don't, you just won't be able to move, but you should still see the walls, ceiling and floor.

You mention making the variables global. How do you do that? How do you make objects global?

I figured it out. It turns out that I needed to make some variables global to get it to work.
