Hi guys, I have a quick question, I am trying to make a quick 2D game, but The output says my code is incorrect. I am trying to making a 2D enemy respond to shots from your character. I think I did it but i'm not sure. Output message: Syntax error unreconized paramonter. For the line:

+ Code Snippet

Enemy = BasePosY,BasePosX,1060"/\/\"

If, you answer, Thanks!!!

Well that would definitely do it for you. I don't know what language you are immigrating from, but Darkbasic can't do that. I am not exactly sure what that code is supposed to do, so I can't offer suggestions. But you are setting the variable Enemy to something. You can't set a number equal to multiple values, let alone 3 integers and a string.

Looking at your code, it looks like it was an incorrectly written line and you wanted the text command underneath it. There is an error there as well. There is no 3rd coordinate for the TEXT COMMAND. If you want the 1060 to be displayed you would want it to look like this:

 TEXT BasePosY,BasePosX,"1060/\/\"

Thanks for using the code button though! Really helps things.
