Hi i made a tutorial for u on making lots of moltable objects in your games:

u cant attach here u have to make some webspace and hyperlink it from there.

some isp free sites like geocities do not like external linking so point us to a website page for best results.

Thanks but i cant do that but i will just show u people here it is:

For Next Command

This command Gets quit a few people get confused with it's uses but no more the following examples will stop people getting confused with it.
In lots of game people have lots of the same object in their game but once people have put lots of one object in then they can do it with other object but I have solved that problem.
look at the following example:
sync on
sync rate 30
set camera range 1,50000

rem make cubes
for a=0 to 10
make object box 1+a,400,400,400
position object 1+a,-2000+(a*600),0,0

next a

rem make spheres
for b=0 to 10
make object sphere 12+b,400
position object 12+b,-2000+(b*600),0,800

next b

rem position camera down at objects
`move camera 50
pitch camera down 90
move camera -8000
In this coding above the first number of :
make object box 1+a,400,400,400
position object 1+a,100+(a*400),200,38000
texture object 1+a,1
and
make object sphere 12+b,400,400,400
position object 12+b,21400+(b*400),200,38000
texture object 12+b,4
is the current object number. The +a is to inform the program that it has to make the number of object wanted in the for a=0 to 10 and the same with the +b.

then codes:
for a=0 to 10
and
for b=0 to 10
Is the number of objects you want to be make.
so when you are wanting more of two object then all you have to do is on the boxes take the object number which is 1 and add the number u want to that which is 10 and the answer is 11.
so when you want to add the spheres to it the object number has to be 12 because 11 is the last boxes number and to put the spheres into it you put the next number which is 12.
But if you put the following the numbers have to change:
sync on
sync rate 30
set camera range 1,50000

rem make cubes
for a=0 to 10
make object box 1+a,400,400,400
position object 1+a,-2000+(a*600),0,0

next a

rem make cylinder
make object cylinder 12,400
position object 12,0,0,800

rem make spheres
for b=0 to 10
make object sphere 13+b,400
position object 13+b,-2000+(b*600),0,1400

next b

rem position camera down at objects
`move camera 50
pitch camera down 90
move camera -8000
because you have added a cylinder in between the to the spheres number has to change to 13 because the cylinder is 12 and therefore the sphere has to be 13 to leave 1 number empty for the cylinder.


and here is the example i made to go with it:
