This is probably a stupid question (thank god for the new book), but, can I have two conditions to be met in a for/Next loop?
What I mean is this: in order for my game to go to the next level, the player has to have either scored five points, without using up his ten tries, in which case it will return to the beginning. Or is there another loop which will be better, like Repeat/until?
thanks

Repeat/until would probably work better.
Something like this:

If someone with more brains than me(which shouldn't be too hard) could explain how I can upload the media with my code, then maybe that person can also tell me what's wrong with my code. It's driving me nuts.

zip up the folder and media without any compiled exe in it and then just upload the whole lot, I prefer people who post source and media anyway since with any code you can see before you compile you can be sure it doesn`t have a virus lurking in it as for the question, something like

repeat

game code

until (points>5) and (tries<10)

would do it.

Sorry, I forgot the message. If anyone can tell me what's wrong with this code I won't be forced to blow myself up out of frustration.
