PANEL* charac_pan = { layer = 3; pos_x = 0; pos_y = 0; button (10, 0, "horse1.tga", "horse1.tga", "horse3.tga", create_entity1, NULL, NULL); button (120, 0, "pig1.tga", "pig1.tga", "pig2.tga", create_entity1, NULL, NULL); button (230, 0, "bat1.tga", "bat1.tga", "bat2.tga", create_entity1, NULL, NULL); flags = OVERLAY \| SHOW; }

(NO changes required in panel definition) Code: function create_entity1(var button_number) { // "button_number" now contains the button number that was pressed, // starting with 1. In this case "1" would be the horse button. ... } "There is no fate but what WE make." - CEO Cyberdyne Systems Corp. A8.30.5 Commercial
