Schools out and I am back. I am wondering... there was a game contest several months ago before I got busy with school. Are there plans for another?

Thanks all for the help. I will have to take your suggestions and see how to use them in my game. Until then I cheated a bit... i put decoy images over the arrows and when the start button is hit those images are hid and the actual arrow navigation buttons are displayed and active.

Thanks I will clean those items up and see if that helps. I did have the global declared on both previously and it still didn't work. I will try again.

I have been here off and on for several months now. I am working on a program and have been stuck on one problem for 3 or 4 months now. I have a screen with a start button and arrow buttons for navigation. I dont want the arrow buttons to move until after the start button has been clicked. I have tr...

Thank you Jacque
Moderator...I deleted the other post prior to recieving a response. Does the board not remove those?

I have managed to create and install an apk for my game but am wondering how to have it install the icon on the home screen. I would like to be able to click the icon without searching through the pages of my launcher screen ... save some time and annoyance.

Thanks in advance for any help

I uninstall the apk from my tablet and then download and install the new updated apk. The field has been updated in the stack and then saved as a standalone and when I install the new apk it still shows the old field content. I guess I don't understand your answer in light of the fact that I am unin...

I set up a field and put text into it - then decided to change it later. Now when I save as a standalone and run it on my tablet it still shows the old text that has been changed.

In my game if you press the arrowkey it moves. If you hold the arrowkey down there is a lag then it continues moving without repeated pressing and releasing. It seems like there should be something like mousestilldown that works with arrowkeys. Is there a way to do that?

flushevents? I will have to look that one up

Now that I read it I am like DUHHH --- that makes sense and I should have known. Thank you for the help. I was a programmer like 20 years ago and am working the rust out of my coding brain.

I have a screen that moves an object right and left showing the player how it looks. However, my test show people just start madly clicking away ... once the object starts moving can I stop clicks from effecting the movements?

Excellent! Thanks so much. I cleaned up the if/then statements and removed the extra "set the sRunning of this cd to false" and is works now.

Thanks I will see if that helps

I have asked about the intersect command before and got a bunch of help (thanks so much sefrojones). But I am having trouble with it still on a different card. On most of my game a hand comes down from the top and tries to grab a phone on the bottom of the screen. If the user moves the hand out of t...
