thank you it works great. Hey im not really sure if this is the place to ask but with this tutorial i found out i can only have 253 controllers so it wont let me add anymore shapes to my map. Is there a work around or even a different way to go about this? i need about 80 more shapes before i can finish my map :/ thanks guys. well i figured something out, i just made a new form called world map2 and added this to frm main Case vbKeyHome If Player(MyIndex).Map < 253 Then frmWorldMap.Visible = Not frmWorldMap.Visible Else frmworldmap2.Visible = Not frmworldmap2.Visible End If that way it checks to see what map im on and opens the right map from now you can have wayy more maps display on your world map.
