Making a start screen and then switching to a new screen
Author
How do I make a start screen, then press a button and have a different screen? I know this is probably simple, but I think I''m thinking to complex (not smart, I mean difficult)
If anyone replies thanks...

Work hard today so tomorrow will be easy.
create an enumerated type such as:
then in your main game loop switch between states:
The above code is just psuedo code. It won''t work if you just copy and paste, but hopefully you get the idea.
Useless Code
enum GAME_STATE { MAIN_MENU, LOAD_LEVEL, RUN_LEVEL, UNLOAD_LEVEL } then in your main game loop switch between states:
while( game_is_running ){ switch( game_state ) { case MAIN_MENU: DrawStartScreen(); if( enter_key_pressed ) game_state = LOAD_LEVEL; break; case LOAD_LEVEL: LoadLevelData(); game_state = RUN_LEVEL; break;...} The above code is just psuedo code. It won''t work if you just copy and paste, but hopefully you get the idea.

Just use a code like this:
int introKey(char k, int x, int y)
{
if(k == ''q'')
{
glutKey(gameKey);
glutDisplay(gameDisplay);
glutDisplay(gameIdle);
...
}
}
void main()
{
glutKey(introKey);
glutDisplay(introDisplay);
glutIdle(introIdle);
...
glutMainLoop();
}
int introKey(char k, int x, int y)
{
if(k == ''q'')
{
glutKey(gameKey);
glutDisplay(gameDisplay);
glutDisplay(gameIdle);
...
}
}
void main()
{
glutKey(introKey);
glutDisplay(introDisplay);
glutIdle(introIdle);
...
glutMainLoop();
}
