Core / kidwatch

After Zombie Spritey our code looked like this:

-- Use this function to perform your initial setup
function setup()
    spx = 100 -- Spritey x
    spy = 100 -- Spritey y
    print("Hello World!")
    print("Look at me go!")
end

-- This function gets called once every frame
function draw()
    -- This sets the background color to black
    background(0, 0, 0)
    -- Do your drawing here
    sprite("SpaceCute:Background",374,374)
    spx = spx + 1
    spy = spy + 1
    tint(0, 255, 0, 255)
    sprite("Planet Cute:Character Boy",spx,spy,101/2,171/2)
end

We now want to keep closer track of Spritey like a GPS.

Add these two lines:

print("Look at me go!")
    parameter.watch("spx")
    parameter.watch("spy")
end

When we play we can see what numbers Spritey is at.

While this isn't that amazing, but, it will help us understand other things we will be doing with Spritey later.
