Skip to 4 minutes for the code tutorial, code used in description below the vid and also here http://www.mediafire...fc0jqeec0gfk5ku

Thanks for watching!

When I think of menu I think of a controllable selector moving across the screen, personally. Your way is very inventive however if I were to write out commands for my functions I would be writing a different program for each function to save time.
Ie a program
lighthouse
takes 1 argument
<on/off>
then the code for that etc…

Same with the energy management. I would rather type
em on or em off
straight from my console.

Just expressing what I would do to make this functioning more efficient. I mean no offense by that by the way. I just think that there is a better way to accomplish what is being done with your menu system.

Your way is more efficient, but this way is easier to understand and do (imo). In my tutorials I try to explain why each line of code does what it does :ph34r:/>/>

I'm glad that you added "imo" because I was gonna be like "wait what? I DISAGREE!". Fair enough though.

Not trying to be a nitpick, but I just noticed a small thing. Your notes on the last "end" in the code say "while z" where z should be x. Just pointing out to save any confusion. Otherwise, it was a pretty good tutorial, very thorough.
