...had made a big _____ up and saved a file over my game...i had a much older version of it, but it will still take a long time before its re-made...sorry for it taking so long everyone. :[
When you're working on a large project, it's always a good idea (actuallty, it's probably extremely important!) to make multiple saves of your program as you increase the version number. For example, you save file GAME_VO.OO1, and then after a while save GAME_VO.OO2. If you happen to save over a version, you'll only have to go back one version and pick up from there. Also, I think SmileBASIC...
The backup got overwritten too...it was not a huge project, but still hours of my time wasted...i totally should have made a backup for it. it's really just a rookie mistake.
