I'm posting this to make sure I'm going about this the right way. It's basically to determine whether I'm using myscene_setup(), myscene_sync() and myscene_cleanup() properly. Below is a snippet of a basic scene setup I'm coding and I want to determine if I'm using the scene functions correctly.

o
	select CurrentScreen
		case "klogo"		
			if KlogoInit = "setup"
				KlogoScreen_setup()
				KlogoScreen_fade(0)
				KlogoInit = "fadein"
				KlogoScreen_sync()
			endif
			if KlogoInit = "fadein"
				for x = 0 to 100
					KlogoScreen_fade(x)
					sync()
					if x >= 100
						x = 100
						KlogoInit = "fadeout"
					endif
				next
			endif	
			if KlogoInit = "fadeout"
				for x = 100 to 0 step -1
					KlogoScreen_fade(x)
					sync()
					if x <= 0 
						x = 0
						KlogoScreen_cleanup()
						CurrentScreen = "title"
					endif
				next
			endif
		endcase	
		case "title"
			if TitleInit = "setup"
				TitleScreen_setup()
				TitleScreen_fade(0)
				TitleInit = "fadein"
				TitleScreen_sync()
			endif
			if TitleInit = "fadein"
				for x = 0 to 100
					TitleScreen_fade(x)
					sync()
					if x >= 100
						x = 100
						TitleInit = "DoTitleLogic"
					endif
				next
			endif
			if TitleInit = "fadeout"
				for x = 100 to 0 step -1
					TitleScreen_fade(x)
					sync()
					if x <= 0 
						x = 0
						if GoingToScreen = "GameScreen"
							CurrentScreen = "game"
							TitleScreen_cleanup()
							
						endif	
					endif
				next
			endif
			if TitleInit = "DoTitleLogic"
				if GetVirtualButtonState( TitleScreen_playbutton ) = 1
					TitleInit = "fadeout"
					GoingToScreen = "GameScreen"
				endif
				
				
				TitleScreen_sync()
			endif
		endcase

Well, at a quick glance you're not using at least some of the functions right. The _setup() and _sync() versions of the .scene do not have to be called if you're using the _fade() for a scene. The _fade() function of your scenes will run the _setup() function if it wasn't loaded before.

Having said that, I haven't tried to make a scene fade in and fade out yet, but you're now using three functions that 'load' the scene already. You may want to open the .scene file in AppGameKit Studio and click on Script, next to where you Save your scene files. It will show you the code the .scene has generated.

If you don't want the scenes to change resolutions or windows, you most likely will want to run the function that ends with _create_window(0) to prevent that.
