As in python, using a function is a better way to reuse code and keep code ‘DRY’. I moved the array routine into its own function which is called from setup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I saved this and explored the pac-man game, looking at the global variables and how these would map to my own maze dragon game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
globals [\n level ;; current level\n score ;; your score\n lives ;; remaining lives\n extra-lives ;; total number of extra lives you've won\n scared ;; time until ghosts aren't scared (0 means not scared)\n level-over? ;; true when a level is complete\n dead? ;; true when Pac-Man is loses a life\n next-bonus-in ;; time until next bonus is created\n tool which-ghost ;; variables needed to properly load levels 4 and above.\n]<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\nSo examining the list to start with, i would need levels, but i would have rooms, and score, lives would be useful. There are no levels as such, once you have completed the adventure the score and time it took to complete is significant. At the moment I’m not doing the AI for the opponents, so ‘scared’ and ‘level-over’ are also not applicable, as well as bonuses and ghost-speicic globals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
My initial list of globals started as<\/p>\n\n\n\n
