actually… idk if I will be able to do that… I'm not too good with algorithmic programming. My forte is physics and collision-based environments

OK. I created the list. Each item on the list corresponds to a black square. The bracketed character to the right of the square # is either a b, an r, or a dash. The “b” indicates that the square is occupied by a black piece, the “r” indicates red, and the “-” indicates that the square is vacant.

please try to put notes to explain what some complicated scripts are.

That was an unexpected coughing fit. Anyway, so it looks like I was correct about Duelmaster360 getting his computer&stuff back after a week.
Also, Duelmaster360, I see a little flaw with your plan. How are you going to keep track of queens? You'll need to add in a designation for that, though other then that, your plans sound good.

the queens or in a different version of checkers standard checkers use kings.
check out the first link in my signiture ernieparke you might like it and you might learn something from it Duelmaster360.

Oh, so it's Kings instead of Queens. My mistake. the queens or in a different version of checkers standard checkers use kings.

As for the project in your signature, I can see you put some effort into it and some passion into it!

I'm an athiest… anyway, let's not get off topic. The last thing we need is a religious debate.
About the list coding thingy, I thought about how the game would determine which places a particular piece can go. I figured that we would have to use numbers instead of letters for the list, because then the sprites can compare numerical values.
So, I will quickly replace all the letters with their corresponding numbers and upload it right quick. just a sec.

how does the numbers cordinate with the list then its complicated now.

First, you'll need to know that a=1, b=2, c=3, d=4, e=5, and so on… how does the numbers cordinate with the list then its complicated now.
Now, the coordinates are simple to read. The first number is the row, and the second number is the column.
So, for example, what once was A2 is now 12. What once was D8 is now 48.

Right now, we ( So who is doing the coding?me and mytie) are planning on doing 3D checkers (which means I have to advance my 3D engine a lot…), though for now, it's both you and mytie.

are you planning of having it 3D when your playing the checker game or should we just make it 3D for the beginning of the game. you could make it so you change views of the checker board and it shows the pieces moving for the intro animation.

I getting off track I need to start programming the checker game I just got a little off track programming Cloud lists using scratch!
even though we could use this in the checker game we need to focus on getting the basics first.sorry.
