What am I doing wrong!

First, you are initializing PP as 0 in every iteration of the loop. Fix this by moving PP=0 to before the loop starts. (Before WHILE 1) Second, you are overriding the dynamic cursor positioning with a static cursor positioning when printing the paddle. Fix this by removing the LOCATE 20,25 right before you print the paddle.

still not working

Well, can you post any errors you are getting or the code?

Okay I figured it out 1. You had the buttons inverted 2. If you go to the edges of the screen it crashes. 3. I need the paddle at 20,25 on screen

Do you still need help, then? Or are you OK for now?

probably

Well... Do ask if you need anything.
