hey guys i have just a few questions, and i have read TDK's collison tutorial but i am still having trouble.

questions:
1. ok im trying to make it so when the player...object 1 comes into contact with object 16
then it ends the program... here is the code i tried

2. if i want to make another level should i use a gosub that runs after the end?

thanks

@Newbie
OBJECT HIT works fine but I think it only returns a 1 on the first instance of a collision between two objects.
END will end your program so anything you place after the command wont be executed.

Your wording concerns me, gosubs aren't like pages that you turn to to continue your program, they are like books that you open when you need and when finished put them back on the shelf and continue with your program (a strange metaphor but meh)

It depends what is required to make a level in your game. The main thing is that your game has a central core that can run any level, then you just grab the data you need for the current level.
Tell us more about your game and we might be able to help.

well what i was planning to do with the gosub...(the end in that if statement was just a placeholder) is when it hits the object which is the object...i will have it rearrange all of the platforms to make the new level...i wont be adding objects just moving them aroun using the position object command.

ah well then your program would look something like this

Of course you'd need lots more code but that's the basic structure.
