with the play function it goes to menu function instead of going
back the previous screen which is the splashscreen function


i know it really really messy im tidying it up when i can work it out

its also done entirely with text and i did have images but it still did the same problem thanks in advance

To post code on the forum in a nice, tidy snippet box, click the CODE button (upper right corner), paste your code, and click the CODE button again.

As to answering your question, I find your code a little hard to follow. Typically, I use functions to perform one main task and will have one Main loop that calls the different functions / subroutines as needed. I would suggest that you reorganize it based upon these principles.

That said, my best guess is that before you respond to going back, put in a repeat - until loop to wait until the user lets go of the mouse button. It may be that it is indeed returning properly, but since the mouse button is still pressed, it goes back even further to the title screen. Here is an example:

thanx for reply i didnt know you had to click code twice
heres the code again hopefully neater but i dont know how i would reorganise cos i tried and my game messed up more and i tried the repeat and until it didnt work unless i had put them in wrong

and i will try to upload my whole game just in case
i did press code twice dont know if it worked tho sorry if it didnt
ok just realize i have to use winrar to zip and then upload but if you do need to look please tell me and i will upload ok thanx

Which function are you in when you press back and then go back to title instead of splashscreen? And which function is splashscreen? And the name of the cover title function? If you upload the code I will look into it later today.

menu function is the front cover i click on new game image then it goes to the splashscreen which is the story then on the splashscreen i click on the next button which brings me to the play function then when i click on the back button it was meant to take me back to the splashscreen function but it goes straight back to the menu function instead its late here so i will upload the whole thing including the images tomorrow i have changed alot of things so decided not to have back but this is my second attempt to do this the first attempt did the same things and just skipped functions thanx for reply

i have put the file up for you to see what i mean but note i have 2 fonts you may not have which is zombie and suicide look at the function play() and the mouse control function for the play function the function that has back in it im having trouble with it thanx in advance

There, I fixed it What happens is that when you press back from play, it actually goes to splashscreen but continues to menu because the mouse button is stille pressed when entering splashscreen so it activates menu in an instant. I added and modded these lines:

At the top add this, variables are local and not remembered across functions unless they are declared globals.


Here I set the variable to 1 just before calling splashscreen in the play_mouse_controls() function.


And finally I have changed this in the splashscreen_mouse_controls, menu() will not be called before mouse button 1 has been released which set stop_at_splashscreen to 0 again.


Hope this helps you I can upload your code again or you can make the changes yourself

EDIT: You will need these kind of things alot through out your game or else it will always happen when you have buttons at the same place in the screen you go to

Gee, I wish I would have thought of that.

Oh wait, I did:

Sorry, but I did not notice your solution. Could you please provide a small piece of code with your implementation? It intrigues me

ok thanx for assistance it has all worked now
