Small Basic Tutorial 2 - User Input and Text Colors

[BlueLinkStudios]

I made a log in system where you can;

make infinite accounts

delete your account

make emails (automatically checks them for you)

make reminders (automatically checks them for you)

Instant Messenger (on your local server)

Check the time (opens a graphic clock )

play higher or lower (Random number guessing game)

I am now making a pokemon like tank game

@BlueLinkStudios Sounds great! Keep going!

Hi , i was wondering if program can help me code for games?

[kaikarden]

@jayquan15ify It really depends. Small Basic can make video games but it's very inefficient at doing so. I would suggest learning C# and working with a free engine like Unity if you really wanted to make games. Unity has a lot of tutorial videos on the internet that can give you a quick crash course and have you on your way with making games in no time.

@kaikarden hey man unity isnt free it wants you to register and pay for it and all that do u know any other programs with tutorials

[kaikarden]

@knightstale0 Unity has a free version that anyone is welcome to download that has very minimal restrictions (mainly the loss of premium water and a few other things). try unity3d (dot) com/unity/download/

[knightstale0]

@kaikarden then it comes up with register and u cant skip it i pressed register and it then dosnt let me click finish its weird

[knightstale0]

@knightstale0 dw about it bro i figued it out thank you so much man i owe u heeps

[jayquan15ify]

@jayquan15ify Oh ok , thanks for your help :)

Why am I watching this? This is for complete n00bs

[elbeavo11]

@gruntlover2 Small Basic is for n00bs thats why..

[coolman1437]

im gonna make a os in this and then import it to c# for cosmos

[kaikarden]

@coolman1437 haha good luck dude. Small basic only imports to Visual Basic and isn't powerful enough to create an operating system in. Even then, when you import your small basic code, it copies it word for word into VB which in most cases isn't compatible with the VB syntax.

[slayer19966]

can small basic make programs like any other c++ compiler, just in the small basic computer language?

[kaikarden]

@slayer19966 how do you mean? C++ Compilers make command prompt programs and Win32 programs. If thats what you're asking then yes, but i'm not quite sure i understand your question. This language is different from others because it's not only limited to what you know, it's also limited to whats been made for it. being an incomplete language presents issues in some cases.

[thedudeguymandud1]

@kaikarden you can graduate to visual basic if you would like using the graduate button.

[kaikarden]

@thedudeguymandud1 I have already spent a great deal of time in Visual Studio. I know how to program in every language in the suite and actually spend the majority of my programming time right now between C# and Java. I created this video series to help people who fresh out starting and are using the programming language specifically designed for them. Thank you for the advice though.

[mrspuffsitekick]

Could you please make a video on how to block someone from entering invalid values in small basic? I'm doing a lab where you get input from the user to rank rules from 1 to 10 and I have to block them from entering any other number, or letter. I'm not sure how to do that so help would be appreciated :) . I know it's something to do with TextWindow.ReadNumber() but I'm not sure where to put it. Thanks

[HeathenDan]

@mrspuffsitekick I don't know how to stop invalid inputs but you can make the program return to the question if they typed an invalid one: start: TextWindow.Write("Enter a number: ") number = TextWindow.ReadNumber() If number = 1 Then Goto continue EndIf If number = 2 Goto continue etc etc... up to 10 Goto start continue: etc. Here we define acceptable values with if/then and only by inputing it will allow the program to continue. Entering any other value will go back to the beginning.

How do u this? I'm a noob when it come to programing , but drawing is a different story!!

[ILUXONCHIKBOY]

Very Nice THX!

PS. Subbed ;D

After setting the background color you can use Textwindow.Clear() , so the whole window will be in blue.
