Hi. Im a newb programmer, and I decided to make a 2d rpg game. This weekend I wrote out my code(which btw is not complete) and it works good for what I have. However, the code is a bit lengthy for what it does. If anyone knows how I can shorten it, I appreciate it. Also, the money system in this does not work right, anyone know why? Here is my code:



Just so you know, the sell and upgrade menus do not work yet. Any help would be appreciated-thx

Wow, thats long. Well, you could use DATA commands to read in your long list of variable values. That could shave off a few lines.

Oh, and this is the code snippets forum. Want help with code, post in the other catagory.

I only had a quick glance over it, but from the looks of it you're doing identical tasks over and over, just with a few differences. Use functions, gosubs or even "for..next" and your code will dramatically reduce in size.

This forum is *not* for questions ... you should probably ask for help in the newcomers forum
