So...Im doing a Dance Dance Revolution Variant........

This is being programmed using vb6.0!

And so far, so good.

But I have a question./..you see..I am v bad at using timers..and of course...this game, like many, requires multiple timers.

So, basic concept of the game is that there are 9 pic boxes. And the game begins and the timer will random choose a box and load first.jpg into one of the boxes. They then have a couple of seconds to press the corresponding key (on the keypad, thus there are nine) and it will either be a hit or miss.

eg:
If they press the wrong button, imgMiss.Visible = True

now here is the tricky part, I want to say that if they dont press any buttons - it counts as a miss too (and I want the miss img to show) :afrog:

can anyone help me...and if you need more info please just ask.

You mean, you want to give them some time to press, like 10 sec.
If that's what you want, do it using another Timer that counts the seconds (or whatever).

thats not a bad idea at all...thanks for that...

any other suggestions anyone?

I'm not sure if this was implied or not, but if you give a reply that requires coding, could you please include it, or at least some of it..thanks

Emm.. code? here you go..

VB Code:

Dim Cnt As Integer
 
Private Sub Timer1_Timer()
 Cnt = Cnt + 1
 If Cnt > 10 Then
    Timer1.Enabled = False
    Label1.Caption = "Time is over. You missed!"
 End If
End Sub

Timer1.Interval is 1000. That's a Second.
