Hi,

I received the "Your message appears to contain bad language, please edit it out." error when I tried to post this, but have no idea why. I have attempted to include it as an attachment. Here is the original post. The code and log output are contained in the attachment. Thanks.

Hi,

I have written the following program that creates two teams, each containing three copies of the sample ColonelX animation. Each one is an instance of Object3D, as inherited by the Character class. This class has a Team and Num property, set to TeamA[0-2] and TeamB[0-2] in the GameLoop subroutine. When I run the program, it behaves as expected on the screen, but the log output reports that every Character is "Team B Character 2". This suggests that the logging instance of Character is always this one, rather than the succession of Characters that I would expect.

Question: How can I create a separate instance of Character for each of the elements in TeamA and TeamB? Any other comments about architecture or coding practice would be appreciated.

Bonus Question: Why does TeamA always win?

here the error

Private Shared msTeam As String = ""

Private Shared miNum As Integer = 0

using Shared attribute means those field are common to every instance of the class. Cause "Team B" and 2 are the last assigned value to those field every objects report to be Team B num 2
