Hiya!

Can someone give me some code to make a program which will randomly generate names of planets, and the user can buy stuff from it using credits and do missions. And you can warp between planets and land at them.

Thankyou.

I'm special.

You have basically asked someone to code your whole game.
You would be better off trying for your self it will help your learning.
I am not saying don't ask for help I'm just saying you would benifit more from giving some of it atleast a go.

to start with her is a random planet generator.


The first line tells the program to put the planets in a group of numbers called Planet and then to randomize it between 0 and 9. The rest of the code will tell the computer which planet has which number and the prints the planets name when the specified number is generated.

Hope that helps

M1RKD1RK,

I will help you also. But, only with a bit of action yourself, which is put into learning the language and creating this program you wish for.

@Grossman
It isn't much different and I think mine looks neater on the screen, otherwise there is just as much coding involved.
But I suppose you are right you can do it that way.

(@SimSmall: The ol' sixth sense tingling, eh? Well, I'll try my best.)

Zotoaster is a respected member of the DBC community, and I cannot understand how you can be so hypocritical by, after insulting everyone else, immediately retorting back with 'How dare you's when someone says one thing back.

You're acting like a typical n00b (imo, different from just a 'newbie') right now (search the forums if you don't believe me) and I recommend you stop before you get slapped. Insulting a mod is Not A Good Thing.

I go into DB and it coes something but how do u start to make a game. I go to FILE and click on NEW PROJECT and it just comes to choose jetski, and other stuff. I click on it and it shows all of the codes. What da heck do I need to do to make a game????? SOMEBODY HELP ME PLAESE?

Edit: But seriously...

M1RKD1RK, when I saw this thread I was shocked.
I thought an infant made it.
I thought it was typed using Windows word.
IS this a program, a team request, or a 3 year old spam?
I REALLY THINK THAT YOU ARE 3 YEAR OLD PERSON.

forgot to say... as long as everyone acts NOT like you, noones the most popular, infact, we all respect each other just as much and not be stupid little brats walking new into a forum and boasting about being able to do whatever you can.. won't be long till you're banned if you on like this...


note: we need Teh Jimmeh in here he'll sort things out


[edit]

Ok, I just have to say this:

I can make fun of you when I like - just thought I should say that you kinda contridict* yourself when people tell you to stop swearing -you say "shuttup", and now you tell me not to make fun of you. So 'shuttup'

*Contridict - never heard of 3 year olds that know what this means, so get your mum to look it up

M1rkD1ck

Don't throw your weight around in here, there are people here who have the brains of a planet, and you are but a useless n00b. Never ask someone to write a game for you because you can't write one yourself, or you find it too hard. Programming is not easy, not even in darkbasic. You are basically asking for a complete game engine that would amount to a great many hours of work, my advice to you is simple. Go get yourself a brain transplant, preferably one with an IQ of over 40. I am usually a very helpful person, but in this case i just feel the need to flame you for the blatant disregard you have for other peoples talents and time and the assumption that you can just ask for completed code.

learn to program you noob.

Leik I can make the game, but i don't know teh codez. I can make teh game if you gimmeh teh codez. Saying PLEASE often helps in these cases, but you have not even bothered to say such a thing in your initial post. and that is ignorance of the highest order.


oh and shut up you total and complete halfwit.

warmest regards, geecee3.

if i get banned for this i get banned. i prolly deserve it, but to tell the truth i'm getting pretty sick of people like m1rkd1ck wasting the time and talents of the forum i love. asking for code in that manner is just not on. I know there are forum rules, but this kind of thread should be locked before anyone can get slightly riled up and reply to it
thanks for your time.

grant. (have a wonderfull day)

no way. trying to clean up the forum is a good thing. and if he talks this way, why not talk that way back..

I find it insulting being talked to like this.. so just like geecee3 says, I think this thread should get locked.. and next time you post a thread, try and be a little nicer! maybe that way you wont get replies like this..

M1RKD1RK

Dude we were all newbies once (some still are) but we(myself, Zotoaster, balnky, benjamin and many others) would never have dared to talk like this on the forum uless we only became a member as a joke and you just wanted to piss everyone one off.

So my advice to you would be to get you act together and treat people with a bit more respect.
(especially mod's, trust me on that one you don't want to get on the wrong side of them).

Oh yeah and *SHUTUP*

If there were mods around here, this would've been locked already.

Actually, I really don't get why you would buy DB and then refuse to write codes.

hey atleast he got more replies than I ever did for my first few threads.

Even though I posted code to help him out I draw the line at making the whole game for him.

If your not willing to learn to program for yourself M1RKD1RK... then you're wasting your time here. Look at the tutorials on the forums and read the help files in Darkbasic. You can do it yourself if you really want to make that game.

Uhh, dude. m1rkd1rk. There is no one more popular on this forum then me, you should be honored that I'm posting in your thread!

Dont worry, I did the same thing you are doing right now. (Before I changed my name)

But that doesn't matter, I made up an excuse. And it was funny. So instead of getting pissed off, just come to me, I'm the Baddest Mama Jamma on the Internet.

I was all alone, noone i knew, knew something about DB...

I'm certainly not the most popular programmer on this forum, just look at TDK, NanoBrain, (Xenoschythe), ...

If it was possible to make EA go bust i'm all for it. EA to me is an evil company that chomps up little companies, ruin their games, and fire anybody that's associated with the former company. I can never forgive EA for destroying Origin and it's greatest creation... Ultima.

You realize if you really wanted to bug him none of you would've replied in the beginning.

But...since it's too late...

I won't go flaming my head off but try and understand the position you're putting us in, it's like me going to you and telling you I want a bigger dick in 5 seconds.

There now that it's in his terms he should understand, all done here people, nothing to see.

P.S *Whisper, hey mirk be sure to email me with that...thing, k bye*

what I'm trying to say is: everyone is going against you.. now you can say sorry (to us and the mods) and the whole argument will finish, or you can go on, and we'll see what the mods do.. and you wont like it..

Okay, I'm not trying to be a pessimist, but I see two perverts on this forum. I don't mean to offend eachother but, Benjamin, how do you know that he doesn't have one. Have you been looking at him. And M1RKD1RK, why do you say your is bigger, did your mother tell you that. I'm trying to get anyone mad at me, just look at what you say when you cap on eachother.

I see... Perhaps he was interested in you learning some sort of logic, typing skills, organization, patience, or professionalism from DB.
