Thank you.

Great! thanks George looking it over now

Oh man, I been hanging out for soooo long too.
Thanks George.

Thank you once again George.
I was eagerly waiting for this!

One question that came to mind when reading Peter Churness's interview and, if not answered in this forum, I think it should be placed in a "Beginner's Corner" in one of your future AUMs:

Have you ever covered in one of the AUMs the idea of stacking objects and pushing/popping them on the right time? I mean how can this programming theory be implemented with C-script?

Thank you for another great AUM issue!

Thank you, George. Some really interesting stuff in there.

Thank you for the kind comments.
immersionfx: I thought that you are talking about objects like boxes, barrels and so on for a moment. Stacking entities can be done pretty easy using a starter function that includes a while loop. You can save the position of the entity (maybe the angles, the current frame, and so on) every x frames, and when the "distance" between player's current position and the virtual position of the entity is smaller than some value, you recreate the entity in the level. I might cover that in a future Aum article.

Well actually I was referring to stacking variables, game states, etc.
Like, say, stack messages each time the player does something which needs clarification and display them on screen with a FIFO-type procedure.

Please read my reply again. I've changed it.

10X man!!!

Finally I have a lightning script I can understand and am having fun with it right now with my chopper game, thanks again.
