Hello,

I am pretty much a newb to coding. I have been trying for a longer time, but I have gotten more time lately to try out new stuff. I am also a very curious person, so you will probably find many questions by me in this forum.

Ok, my first question is:

How do I make a login screen for my game? Do I have to chop up a picture into different tiles of 32x32, or is there another way?

Here comes my second question:

Since I have lots of question could I keep asking questions in this topic or do I have to make a new topic for every question?

Thanks in advance,

For the title screen you could save it in a format in paint and transfer it to dream maker, set it up on a map level. And do something like this:

turf//you define this as a turf, one of the big 3, mob,obj,turf
    Titlescreen//the name you will have it be called like in map maker and sorts
        icon = 'title.bmp'//the file you will get the icon file
        Click()//the mouse event of clicking one time
            src.loc = locate(1,1,2)//moves the user to the map level of 1,1,2

Also. I have been able to do a lot of neat things in dream maker and I started 2 months ago with no previous knowledge at all. So sorry to be rude but I can't really take your word that you have been trying a long time, you might want to read the guide, skim the refrence, and do the ZBT tutorials as well as read many tutorials throughout byond. You can start here. I don't suggest asking all of these questions you may have because if you do all of this I bet at least 70% of those questions will be diminished. Then bring the rest here. If you post code on forums type dm, at the beginning and /dm at the end in <>.

In response to Darkjohn66
Thanks, I will try it out in just a second :D

Edit: Did I actually say a longer time? Sorry about that, I sometimes get confused with words when I type fast.
