Anyone see the syntax error? I think it is in line 7

It's in line 7. SPREAD does not exist, therefore you can't use it. To fix it, remove SPREAD and put something else.

I think want you want is SPOFS OUT. In SmileBASIC, it's possible to add OUT to a lot of commands to allow you to fill variables. The command you want is probably: SPOFS OUT 0, X, Y This will fill X with the sprite's current X location, and Y with its Y location. Hope this helps!

if BTRIG is being used as a button, inside the 'loop', (as I call it, ex:@A)you need to put BTRIG=BUTTON()

here's a tip: instead of using PRINT, you can use ?(?"HERE'S A TIP"
