I'm experimenting with functions as I hear they're great for organizing your program, but I've got a bit of a problem... (and I feel like a greenhorn for this... which I am)

My text isn't showing up in this simple program. Maybe someone can figure it out for me as my brain is smoking at the moment from overload...

+ Code Snippet

REM ***** Main Source File *****
REM

setscreenmode()

do
cls
set cursor 10, 10
print "screen set"
loop

function setscreenmode()
rem (this will set the display mode.  If the mode is not available then
rem the program will exit)
If Check Display Mode(800, 600, 32) = 0
   End
Else
   set display mode 800, 600, 32, 1
endif

rem (sets program to run in window)
set window on

rem (sets rate of updates so things don't move too fast)
Sync On
Sync Rate 60
Backdrop Off
endfunction

In the beginning there was nothing. There'll be nothing in the end...

You must add "sync" at the end of the main loop just before "loop".Read about this command.Also search fastsync in the forum and sync sleep, very handy commands

Where there is a will, there is a way.
I often edit my posts, that`s who i am
