Hi all, i'm trying to make a fixed posistion fps bottle shoooting game controlling the cross hair with the mouse.
This is what i've got so far

+ Code Snippet

hide mouse
cls
`draw crosshair
load bitmap "cross.bmp",1
get image 1,4,421,25,443
for n=2 to 7
`draw bottles
load bitmap "bottle.bmp",2
get image 2,2,411,20,444,2
sprite n,n*50,280,2
next n

`make crosshair follow mouse
do
sprite 1,mousex(),mousey(),1
loop

I don't know how to make it so that when the mouse button is clicked AND the crosshair is ANYWHERE over one of the bottles that bottle will disapear. I know i have to use the mouse click()=1 to check if the button is clicked. Thanks

Thanks. This does work but only with the first bottle of the line. I tried swapping the 2 for n but that says error at line whatever Bob does not exist. Any tips.

This code works alss you have to do is add some sound or some explosion effect

+ Code Snippet

rem ---------Bottle Shooter

Rem ----settings
sync on
sync rate 30
backdrop on
color backdrop 0,0
hide mouse

rem ----- load images
load image "bottle.bmp",2
load image "cross.bmp",1
rem make the bottles
for n=2 to 7
sprite n,n*50,280,2
next n

rem -----start the game loop
do
rem cursor
sprite 1,mousex(),mousey(),1

rem collision detection the 0 means if collision with any sprite
if sprite collision(1,0)
if mouseclick()=1
rem you want to hide the sprite that the cursor has collided with
hide sprite coltest
endif
endif

rem this makes the coltest value to be the number of the sprite hit
coltest=sprite collision(1,0)
sync
loop

Thanks.Does this meen it wouldn't work if I drew my own backgroung and used it as a sprite that covered the whole back of the screen because the cursor would always be colliding with it.

you could do a background but you would have to change it a bit so no object above a certain number can be shot

+ Code Snippet

rem ---------Bottle Shooter

Rem ----settings
sync on
sync rate 30
backdrop on
color backdrop 0,0
hide mouse

rem ----- load images
load image "bottle.bmp",2
load image "cross.bmp",1
rem make the bottles
for n=2 to 7
sprite n,n*50,280,2
next n

rem -----start the game loop
do
rem cursor
sprite 1,mousex(),mousey(),1

rem if coltest = less than 10 so any sprites above 10
rem are not able to be shot the num can be changed
if coltest<10
if mouseclick()=1
rem you want to hide the sprite that the cursor has collided with
hide sprite coltest
endif
endif

rem this makes the coltest value to be the number of the sprite hit
coltest=sprite collision(1,0)
sync
loop
