mehguy Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Ok, so I tried making an play field and I tried setting the colors. When I tried running it, it says "Syntax error" and the error seems to the be the colors. This is what I have so far. playfield: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX ................................ ................................ ................................ ................................ ................................ ................................ ................................ ................................ ................................ XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX end COLUBK = $20 COLUPF = 212 drawscreen goto drawscreen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Gemintronic Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Drawscreen is a command. That goto is trying to use it like a label. This general area is more for assembly programmers. Try the batari basic section to get more people to view yer questions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EDIT: I almost forgot, I use the "goto drawscreen" because the... loop drawscreen goto loop doesn't work.

mehguy Posted August 11, 2014 Author Share Posted August 11, 2014 I got it working again. I had an old version of visualbb and the complier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Gemintronic Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Remember that a bunch of settings get cleared after a drawscreen. The screen may appear blank because of those magically vanishing values such as COLUP0, COLUP1, COLUPF, etc.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
