I want to create a button to start the game of tic-tac-toe I'm creating. Any "create button" type commands?

John "Dark Lord of Angel Destroying Destiny" Pringlebee, maybe?

Why not take a look in the codebase?

I put a fully working tic tac toe game in there a few months back. You're very welcome to look at that. It doesn't have any buttons or, indeed, any graphics (because it was just a demonstration) but it is a fully working tic tac toe game.

you need to make a sprite to represent your button, then use Mousex() and mousey(), along with Mouseclick() functions to determine if the user's mouse was within the button constraints when it was clicked.

Trust Bob to answer the question and be helpful rather than procrastinate mindlessly like me.

Like I am doing now in fact.

And just then.

heh heh "Bob" ? LOL
My real name is James. My nickname comes from "The Jerky Boys". Their 3rd cd introduced a charcter named "Big 'Ol Fat Ass Bob, The Cattle Rustler" which is funny as hell so I use that as my online persona. I know my signature contains "Bob" and you are not the first to refer to me as "Bob", but I would prefer "CattleRustler" or "Cattle" or "Rust", I think Mattaman refers to me as "CastleRunner" - LOL

Thanks,
"Not Bob"

or you can make a very tiny one pixel sprite and display it at an offset that places it right at the tip of the cursor and then check for a collision with that sprite and the one that makes up the button whenever the mouse is clicked eg(psuedocode)



hope thats some help
