so I'm currently working on an attack and want to make it so that even when I'm moving I am slashing the sword in any key I'm holding in and should rotate in that key because I'm not making a sprite for each direction, here's my attack code:

--attack

--attack variables
atck_strength = 5
atck_dur = 4
is_atck = false
atck_swing_anim_timer = 0
atck_delay = 2

function attack_init()
atckposx = 63
atckposy = 63
end

function attack_update()

 if btnp(🅾️) then
  is_atck = true
  atck_swing_anim_timer = atck_dur
 end

 if atck_swing_anim_timer > 0 then
  atck_swing_anim_timer -= 1
 else
  is_atck = false
 end

end

function attack_draw()

if is_atck then
spr(001, atckposx, atckposy)
end

end

I'm struggling on making a dash, I've tried everything but they just broke the game, here's my code:

--puppy killer

--by roastedbird

function _init()

--player variables

`posx = 0`

`posy = 0`

`speed = 1.5`

`dash_speed = 3`

`dash_dur = 8`

end

function _update()

--input

`if btn(➡️) then`

 `posx = posx + speed`

`end`



`if btn(⬅️) then`

 `posx = posx - speed`

`end`



`if btn(⬆️) then`

 `posy = posy - speed`

`end`



`if btn(⬇️) then`

 `posy = posy + speed`

`end`

end

function _draw()

`cls()`

`spr(0, posx, posy)`

end

So I just finished building a small game and want to compile it into an exe but I don't know how, also my friends don't have raylib installed. How do I do it?

also I'm contributing and made a new function called "make_popup_window" but I need to fix this first.

just felt like I had to let you know.

I'm making pong and saw the gmtk jam 2026 and so I wanted to join, but then I remembered how I didn't practice my coding skills for the last game jam I joined. So to practice them, I am thinking of making one small game everyday, is this a good idea?

So i just wanted to make a popup in rmmz but I want it to be native, for that I need a c++ dll, I'm learning c++ so coding the popup shouldn't be too hard but I don't know how to even add my dll into rmmz, how do I do it?

I fixed three of seven errors but I don't understand the last four since to me as a beginner this looks like it doesn't, here are the errors:

expected ';' before 'InitWindow'

'r' was not declared in this scope

unused variable 'SCREEN_WDITH' [-Wunused-variable]

unused variable 'SCREEN_HEIGHT' [-Wunused-variable]

And this is the code itself its c++ since that's the language I'm learning:

#include "raylib.h"


int main(){
    // Initialize
    int x = 400;
    int y = 225;
    const int SCREEN_WIDTH = 1920;
    const int SCREEN_HEIGHT = 1080;


    SetConfigFlags(FLAG_FULLSCREEN_MODE);


    InitWindow(SCREEN_WIDTH, SCREEN_HEIGHT, "Puzzle Switch");


    // Gameloop
    while (!WindowShouldClose()){
        // Render
        BeginDrawing();
        ClearBackground(RAYWHITE);
        DrawRectangle(100, 100, x, y, BLUE);
        EndDrawing();
        DrawText("Move the rectangle using the arrow keys.", 190, 200, 20, LIGHTGRAY);
        if (IsKeyDown(KEY_RIGHT)) x++;
        if (IsKeyDown(KEY_LEFT)) x--;
    }


    // Deinitialization
    CloseWindow();
    return 0;
}

I am making a game in c++ and wanted to make a popup the second you start the game and I mean a real computer pop up not one on the screen, how do I do that?
