ok i'm trying to make a website using darkbasic so all people have to do is download my site in it's executable form and all they have to do after that is start up my program to connect to my site of course i don't want to be updating the program every time i add something to the site so i already know how to do all most of that my main issue is if i want to make some games for the people browsing my website to play i well need to write them in db of course this would mean they would have to download the program every time i made a new game for it so i attempted to try and figure out how to make a way in which i could make a reader which dbc could just read and say ok this is what i'm surpose to do the only problem is i can't place an if statement in the eternal file and if i do i could only possibly call it as a string so db well only think it is a string not actual code so is there a way to allow code to be written into the program without haveing to compile a new program each time?


edit: also while were at it could some one point me to some path finding tut's

Good god! Use punctuation!!! I hope your language arts teacher doesn't see this

So you're trying to make a website with darkBASIC? I seriously doubt anyone will download it, because it will seem too suspicious.

What you can do is make a game manager type thing kind of like Lucas W's

You can add code but without them also downloading the compiler they won't be able to do anything with the code. And you can't allow the compiler to be downloaded... can we say illegal?
