Whatever happened to TheBOB's White Cake? - Pete - 04-24-2022

Whenever we had a graphics emergency at The QBasic Forum, we always put up the Bat Signal ^^0^^ to call on TheBOB (aka The Batman) for help. One of Bob's creations, a recipe for White cake, and his Page Flipping Screen 9 demo were combined in the following code, but something went amiss that day in Gotham City...

Code: (Select All)
DEFINT A-Y
TYPE RockTYPE 'establish data TYPE for meteors
    Mx AS INTEGER 'meteor x coordinate
    My AS INTEGER 'meteor y coordinate
    Mr AS INTEGER 'meteor radius (fixed)
    Ms AS INTEGER 'meteor speed (fixed)
END TYPE
