Hi.
I need sync a action in outside of Do--Loop but i don't know how can do it.
I used Sync() and Swap() and Render() in my code but won't work.

Please guide me.

Thanks.

I don't understand what you are trying to do. I may be getting the wrong end of the stick here, but you can call Sync() from wherever you like. i.e:

+ Code Snippet

Do
   // Do stuff 
   SyncAaction()
Loop

Function SyncAaction()
   // Do more stuff "in outside Do--Loop"
   print("Hello World")
   sync()
endfunction

Maybe if you post some code that isn't working, we can fix it for you?

In Tier 1, you can call Sync() anywhere that you want.

Showing the code that isn't working would help.

Cheers,

Thanks for Reply.

I want sync this code in outside of Do--Loop.

+ Code Snippet

		if GetSpriteExists(ProLoading_Spr[3]) = 1
			if GetSpriteScaleX(ProLoading_Spr[3]) <= 2.7				
				SetSpriteScaleByOffset(ProLoading_Spr[3],GetSpriteScaleX(ProLoading_Spr[3])+ 0.0135,GetSpriteScaleY(ProLoading_Spr[3]))
				Sync()
			endif
		endif

do
     sync()
loop

i think you will do this:

+ Code Snippet

 
do
    myaction(ProLoading_Spr[3])
     sync()
loop  
end

function myaction()
local ret as integer
ret=0
        if GetSpriteExists(spr) = 1
            if GetSpriteScaleX(spr) <= 2.7             
                SetSpriteScaleByOffset(spr,GetSpriteScaleX(spr)+ 0.0135,GetSpriteScaleY(spr))
            else
               ret=1
            endif
        endif

endfunction ret

Why do you return ret, when it does nothing?

@Mobiius because i think it can used to see if the scale max is reached.

Then you mean this...

+ Code Snippet

Do
   If Not MyAction(ProLoading_Spr[3]) Then Sync()
Loop  
End
 
Function MyAction( Spr )
   Ret = 0
   If GetSpriteExists( Spr ) = 1
      If GetSpriteScaleX( Spr ) <= 2.7             
         SetSpriteScaleByOffset( spr, GetSpriteScaleX( Spr ) + 0.0135, GetSpriteScaleY( Spr ) )
      Else
         Ret=1
      EndIf
   EndIf
EndFunction Ret

But if it were me, I personally see no point in having two syncs in any game loop? What specifically neds you to sync somewhere else in the code? It makes it very difficult to debug when things go wrong, and I personally think it's bad practice to have multiple screen draws in the code.

@Mobiius not, because you made a loop without sync. the result can used for exit the loop or as trigger. me not know what Behdadsoft exact will do.
