Well, just what the topic says. How can I use included files properly? Can I code my player in an included file and have it called in my main project, so as to allow the code to be neater and cleaner, or is include for somthing else?

Thanks in advance

Yes, you can include code into your main code but don't use the #include command. include it from the project settings in the IDE

OK, thanks for that! Also, would I be able to code say... my player in an included file and it would work just like I coded it in the main project file?

each included file is tacked on to the end of the main file before compiling

Don't forget to back up your work frequently when working with extra files. At least in the old ide, a syntax error could
wipe out all your code.

An easy way to avoid that problem is not to use the standard IDE. I personally recommend RobK's BlueIDE which has the feature to automatically save your work every X minutes or each to you complile

Had that happen many, many times. Now I use BlueIDE. Much, much better.
