Im working on my first game, doing good so far, trying to add Collision detection though. when i compile and run, it brings up the screen, but stays black. never loads the level. I've read TDK's tutorial, which is what im going with for now, but cannot figure out why it wont load. This is the code i have thus far



Any help would be appreciated..

i forgot to mention, that when taking the collision detection code out, it loads fine.




NeverMind. went to a different tutorial about sparky's collision DLL. works perfect.

The problem is that your program is getting stuck on the REPEAT loop at line 71. The object is colliding with something at the start, so the REPEAT loop triggers. However, because speed#=0, the object never moves out of the collision, so the program never leaves the REPEAT loop. Just giving speed# a value should help with this.

Little side note, you could replace that REPEAT loop and IF statement with a WHILE loop:
