| Just wondering can this be done?, And if so how, please?, Slow but surely getting the hang of Types... Type Pad Field FileName = LoadImage("Pad.bmp") Field X = ScreenWidth / 2 - ImageWidth(Pad\FileName) / 2 Field Y = 128 End Type |

No, you'd have to do it like this:p.pad = new pad
p\FileName = Loadimage("Pad.bmp")
p\X = GraphicsWidth() / 2 - ImageWidth(Pad\FileName) / 2
p\Y = 128
Type Pad
Field FileName%
Field X%
Field Y%
End Type |

| When you call the Type command you are building a framework for objects, not the actual objects themselves. To create an object from the framework, use variable.type = new type. replacing variable with whatever you want to call the new object and type with your framework name. The benefit of using types is that you can have a virtually unlimited number of objects which behave in the same way as each other. An example of this could be a car type. You could have multiple cars, which essentially do the same thing, but give them different names to give them some individuality. |
