The goto command is a throwback command from earlier basic languages.

It can cause problems with making your code harder to trace as your project grows unless you are taking extra special care with the problems layout by tracking it via a note pad or something.


The command object exist() is listed in the command index, it basically allows you to detect if an object has already been loaded or is currently active.

the if statement followed by the endif statement can be applied to this command with the delete object command

the foo variable represents your objects number




you can also apply another command to step through many models using a for/next statement

so you created a function called clearworld()?
Thats the only thing i can think of to allow that to happen.
In that function would be the aforementioned commands at least.

Highly unlikely I think - otherwise he wouldn't have asked "How do you clear the world?" in the first post.

The chances are he's using someone else's code and can't figure out what it does.

Another example of someone jumping straight into 3D without learning the basics first. As a warning to others, this never works...
