Problem of SDL_FLIP

...oooor... you could instead use your own font sheet and use bitmap fonts. More colorful!

In fact you don't get to do too much of that with TTF fonts.

I use this technique in some of my other games. The next part in my tutorial series will be using my FontsUnit.pas I use in all my games. (well, a simplier version anyway)

I'll send you a copy of my canceled 'Subject 33' game's source so you can have a look at it. It's fairly simple in concept so you can se how you could start your own if you need more features.

There are great tutorials about SDL. Samples in C++ but it is very very similar and I have no problems to write in Pascal.

[size=9px]Check your 'Messages' arthurprs. I sent you a PM about my source. It used to flash when you had a new message to alert you, but that was lost a few updates ago. We'll be putting it back when we get the chance. [/size]

I have played and take a look at the code, simply awesome :shock:

you just write a large n¬? of functions to make your life easyer, constant units, i have never programmed something in that organization

Structure is everything. If it makes your coding easier in the long run, do it.
