Hi
I was playing bomberman with a friend yesterday and it was such good fun I decided to try my hand at making one myself.
Ok so I have manageed to make a square pitch with a grid on it but when it comes to placing the blocks I get stuck.
I don't want to write out about 50 Position object x,x,x,x
when I think you can do it with a for next command but I am not sure How.
Can someone help?

You could use an array that descibes the position of the tile and then the state of the position like:

DIM TILE(X,Y)=STATE

X and Y being there position on the grid, and since I assume the grid is in regular intervals a simple mathematical operation can be used to determine the position of the block. The state can be used to describe what block is positioned at that point on the grid or if no block at all is positioned there, ie: STATE=0 means no block, STATE=1 means blue block, STATE=2 means red block.

The force will be with you. Always.

Ok I have worked it out.
I have structured my code like this


I have done that six times round to fill my pitch with blocks.
Now my only problem is with collisions.
I have collisions with the outside walls of the pitch but how am I going to do the same for the blocks using the

and the

doesn't seem to work.
Any help would be good.

Only a minor point, but Step 1 is not required on the For..Next line unless the required step is not 1. (Leave out the Step and 1 is assumed).
