Hi Thomas,
Yep, well, there is no Jim Kitchen the third, so I don't plan on some one
taking over the Kitchensinc games. I know that partially because of starting
out only being able to use two letters for variable names and because space was
limited, I have always been conscious of size of code and later sound files. I
know that it really is no longer a problem, but I do hate to waste space. Plus
typing less is a good thing for me. I would probably not like to be some one
else trying to read my code though. And heck as I have mentioned, many of my
VB6 games were converted from dos games and thus actually still have line
numbers from BasicA and GW Basic instead of line labels like Quick Basic, VB6
etc can use.
Every once in a while I will add a comment line in my code, but usually it is
just a temporary place marker and I go through and delete them when I am
finished with that bit of code.
dim pd$(5, 15) is the global variable for the players and their 14 parts of
description for the game that I am working on now. I'm sure that it would make
sense to others if the variable name was more like dim PlayerDescription(5, 15)
but I like less typing and as long as I know the code that is all that matters.
Well that and that it compiles, runs, and does what I want it to do.
BFN
Jim
Cool! all of the hard work has paid off, my name is a household word.
