Sync on
Make object cube 1,77
do
Yrotate object 1,object angle y(1)+1
sync
loop

Here's how it works:

`Make it so that you control when the screen updates, using the sync command
Sync on
`Make the cube
Make object cube 1,77
`Start a loop(ingnore this)
do
`Object 1's y angle is equal to it's y angle plus one.
Yrotate object 1,object angle y(1)+1
`Update the screen
sync
`Go back to do
loop

P.S. Don't make your title all caps with many exclamation marks and you'll get more replies.

make a texture and texture the cube, like this:



however, if you still want to use color object, then you need to make sure that you light it from all angles, or your color won't show properly.

Part of solving the problem is actually noticing that the problem is there in the first place

Do the "My First Pong Game" tutorial. It's at the top of this board. I don't think you really understand what you are doing at the moment, but you have lots of enthusiasm so the future looks bright.

Have fun.

Dont worry about it man, you're learning, just keep at it. Your program looks good.

What else do you want ur program to do? I can help you, but you're not being very specific...

to change colors, just slowly increment the RGB values to what you want. Ie: Every increment in the loop add 1 to the red value, and set the color.

Hi,
This code will use if statements to change the color of the cube so that it will shift from red to green to blue etc.



Of course this could easily be applied to the backdrop by adding the line color backdrop rgb(red,green,blue). If you need any help with the code just ask.

Hope it helps.

Note: This is just a quick rough and ready way, I'm sure someone else here would be able to post a much better solution.
