Thanks for the example. It makes my point (more compact, more readable code) very clear I think.

Tried to code it in a macro and in a function but it didn't work out. (I'm not a pro coder though). You could use it for example to do animations or to do little sequences or movements in games with less code.

In my case (I code retro games) It would certainly make my code more more compact and more readable.

Just found out that my findings about the Lights that can be used in Purebasic are not correct. When you create a light it's a Pointlight and not a Directional light. Sorry for the mistake.

Pointlights are very usefull. They would be even more usefull if the setAttenuation (how it diminishes with ...

Thanks a lot!

I will check them out now.

Thanks for the reply,

Yes I want to make the music/modules but, like I said I don't have any experience with these 'Trackers'. So I like to try one out and when it turns out that it's to hard then I will use OGG instead.

Best regards,

Hello,

I've made this nice little scramble remake. When you have the time, please check it out and tell me how it runs on your system.
