So I dumped the standard scrabble tiles into an array, combination of 100 letters a-z in the standard scrabble distribution, plus two blanks. I am confused about exactly what version of AppGameKit I have? regardless, can't seem to figure out how to copy the array into a second array. simply doing dim workingArray = HardcodeArray doesn't do it.
In my native language I use a string, and I could use a string here but the string functions seem to be limited. When a new game round starts, the tileset is copied from the hardcoded string into a working string that I manipulate. I randomly pull characters from my working string into a third string, and remove the characters from the working string as they are drawn so I can't draw more than the right letter ratio. Then when the third string is the right length, I do further manipulation to it to assign bonus point tiles to randomly selected letters in that string, based on index locations.
I've been spending a lot of time reading the manual, and watching tutorial videos (both supplied and searching youtube) and I can't seem to figure out how to get the array to work as needed, or even the right string functions to build my game set. If anyone can point me in the right direction I'd really appreciate it.
Thanks for reading.
