I just used... well these thing . also, I believe either a using statement for system or system.Exception is required. Both errors were found in the Component class. Just thought I would let5 you know. I am running through your tutorial and I noticed that the quotes around SetupEngine() will cause an error.

So what does it mean? Also, is it spelt that way as a typo, or is there a genuine reason for it? thanks in advance Nick There is a bool variable named ‘inititalized’ (your spelling not mine) in the GameScreen class code, and its data access isnt set to public, private, or protected.

List updating = new List(); Why create a temporary list? I mean, you use all the components from it in the same function anyway o.o Sorry if I missed something.

I'm only halfway through it, and I can't stop reading. The only thing I miss is the "discover by yourself" part. Oh well. I guess I'll get it sooner or later. -Great- tutorial.
