What? You don't want to make an RPG? But its compulsory!
Here's what I think you should do (in no particular order):
- Play around with new commands, learn what they do and how to use them.
- Look at other peoples code. Work out what they've done, and how it all works.
- Look at everything in the forums. Something you see now might help you out in a few months.
Here's what you want to do I think - all commented:
make object cube 1,100
endtime=timer()+2000 : ` work out when we want to finish. 2000=2 seconds
while timer() < endtime : ` loop until we reach the endtime
yrotate object 1, object angle y(1)+1 : ` rotate the object
sync : ` sync the display - forces 3d redraw
endwhile
` If you don't do this, DB/DBProredraws the 3D for you, blanking the message
while scancode() = 0 : ` loop until a key is pressed
text 0,0, "Hello" : ` output the message
sync : ` sync again
endwhile
