okey! here is the thing. I've made a cube and would like to control it by typing in words to make it go forward and backward etc.

I'm sending source of what i've got. My problem is that I can't add more commands. If I do none of them will work!

Assuming you're trying to add the commands with that "if" statement...

Have a look in the help file for core commands or something like that and see if you can find commands like "select" and "case". If you can I may be able to help.

Move object 1,0.03

Unfortunately there is not move object command in DarkBasic Classic. You will need to use this set of commands:

newx#=newxvalue(object position x(1), object angle y(1), 0.3)
newz#=newzvalue(object position z(1), object angle y(1), 0.3)
position object 1, newx#, object position y(1), newz#

It's been a while...so check to make sure that covers all the dimensions you need to move in.

The newxvalue and newzvalue functions are a quick way to do some trig to calculate where the next coordinate will be when you are moving at different angles.
