look for tutorials and ask specific questions. There's so many aspects to making a game that when you say "kno any tips" you have to narrow it down. Try tutorials before getting into an RTS for yourself .

Please try to keep your grammar in good shape, I get a head ache reading your reply(s). (No offense)

Also, before making an RTS or anything, try somthing like a pong clone or what-not.

You're obviously not looking very hard for answers, check the code-snippets board. Near the top is a thread about my rts tutorial, it covers more than enough to get started.

well its not functional first of all. This is how it should be:


and second of all it's just a very simple menu. You should start with tutorials. And like jrock said, use decent grammar (as in spell things correctly)

WORDS$="New Game"
Pressed=0
x1=20
y1=55
x2=Text Width(WORDS$)
y2=Text Height(WORDS$)
Do
text x1,y1,WORDS$
if mousex()>x1 and mousex()<x1+x2
if mousey()>y1-y2 and mousey()<y1+y2
Pressed=1
endif
endif
if pressed=1 then ink rgb(255,0,0),0 else ink rgb(255,255,255),0
if pressed=1
Pressed=Mouseclick()
If mouseclick()=1 then Goto New_Game
else
pressed = 0
endif
loop

New_Game:
print"new game"
suspend for key
return
