Well. I was following the guide for a simple 2D shooter, and I've been having issues with the gosub command. Lets take a snipit:



Now, whenever I do anything like this, it seems to just crash my game on startup. I've tried plugging in multitudes of different commands into the sub, though nothing works. (Leaving it blank also crashes.)

I'm currently running Vista 32bit, and I do have admin permission & compatibility for Windows XP on both the editor, and the exe. (Using Dark Basic Pro.)

Any help? :/

The subroutine that you are going to needs to be at the end of your program, after an End command designates the end of the program. In your code, the computer is going to shoot, executing the code, returning then carrying straight on through the sub-routine a second time and hitting the return again...only the second time it doesn't know where to return to and crashes.
