A race meeting your players can bet on. They read a race card, back a racing snail to Win or Place, and watch the race run on a garden course this package draws: moss, slate, sand, puddles, leaf litter and gravel, each suiting some runners more than others. Close finishes go to the judge's photograph. Pure GML, with no sprites: the only image files are the glyph sheets of its 4 fonts.
Drop a meeting into a fairground, a tavern garden or a noble's lawn. It takes the player's gold in, runs up to five races, and hands the purse back when they leave.
Every runner's form carries on from one visit to the next. my_meeting = dby_meeting_create({ seed: 2026, races: 3, purse: my_gold, record: my_form }); if (dby_meeting_step(my_meeting) == "done") my_gold = my_meeting.purse; // Step dby_meeting_draw(my_meeting, 0, 0, display_get_gui_width(), display_get_gui_height()); // Draw GUI What your players see The race card: every runner's number cloth, its name, the going it likes, its silks, its last five placings with wins in red, and its Win and Place prices chalked on a slate.
