Ok, I want to make a menu for my game. I have an idea for one, but at this time, I dont know how to transfer this to code.

I know that a menu is made up of bitmaps, one main background bitmap, & each button has 3 different bitmaps to it, one for mouse over, one for clicking, & the last for just there.

I want to get a working menu for the game im making. I want to start with this. I am wondering if anyone knows of a tutorial, or any code that may be able to help me out? I want to, on game bootup, to display the menu, & wait till the user finishes using the menu, to load certain levels, or bring up other menus.

If there is no tutorial, could someone kindly give me some kind of code to get started with? I am not sure quite how to do this, & I would like to learn how.

Thanks to anyone who helps ahead of time, I want to learn how to do this, but without any help, or tutorials, it is hard to get started.

there is a menu section in the tutorials listed near the top of this forum under "new Dark Basic Tutorials" or something like that, but I didn't find it very helpfull so i'll give you the code I would use.



as you can see i was going to comment it out so it would be easier to understand but I think its pretty simpel.

...that move was indeed...Bold.

Thanks for the offer, I just emailed you on it.

@ Jadelion

Thanks for the code, but without reminders & notes, I cant make any sense of it right now.

Thanks,
