I am trying to gosub to a different section but the backdrop is textured and in the way:



when I try to go into a new section, it just shows the backdrop when all the objects are gone, I can't switch to the next section until its no longer textured.
Any ideas? Any help is helpful

Can't really help without the rest of your code tbh - unless there's some weird bug with the texture backdrop command that I don't know about, then the problem's likely somewhere else in your code.

I didn't even know TEXTURE BACKDROP worked for anyone.

Have you tried COLOR BACKDROP to remove the texture?

In my help file it says:
This command is now obsolete and using sky spheres and boxes is a recommended alternative.

It's the Help file that's obsolete - the help file corrections usually lag behind the changes to the commands.

The texture backdrop command was reinstated by popular request in a "recent" upgrade. It's always worked for me.

Edit

The following code works fine for me - just press the spacekey to clear the backdrop.



Just replace the image with your own image file. This code is a trivial extension of code posted on the same topic a few weeks ago.
