Sup,

I'm making a zombies game and I would like to keep the main menu code and the main game code separate to make things easier to navigate - i have the two .dba's but how do I use the main game one?

Thanks,
Ewan

I don't know if this is right but what I have done is set my "core.dba" as the main file in DBP and put this code at the top..

this way it runs those files first and then returns to the main code onces it is complete.. As previously stated i don't know if this is the right way to do it but it works for me.. so i figured I would give you an option..

EDIT I also put main_menu: at the top of my menu.dba file so it would work..

I'm wondering if there's also such a command to load your own made extensions.

Main DBA file :





Then my keystate function would be in the file "Keystate.Function"





Is this possible, and if so, could this also be done to have more loops? I have 2 loops in my game, ShopMenu and Game.
Would be easier to have those loops in seperate files.


Edit - Changed Quote to Code tags.
