help with cross

First you have to split your function in two functions.
One for creation the board, the second for displaying.

import pprint
doska = [ ]

def create_sachovnica(n):
    global doska
    doska=[[' 'for i in range(n) ] for j in range(n)]
    npul=n//2
    for i in range(n):
        doska[npul-1][i]='*';doska[npul+1][i]='*'
        doska[i][npul-1]='*';doska[i][npul+1]='*'
    doska[npul][0]='*';doska[npul][n-1]='*'
    doska[0][npul]='*';doska[n-1][npul]='*'
    for i in range(1,npul):
        doska[npul][i]="D";doska[npul][n-i-1]="D"
        doska[i][npul]="D";doska[n-i-1][npul]="D"
    doska[npul][npul]="X"
    doska[n-1][npul-1]='A'

def print_sachovnica(n):
    for n in doska:
        print (' '.join(n))
    print()

# main
create_sachovnica(9)
print_sachovnica(9)

Either you work a lot with global variables for board, positions for 4 players, ...
or you do it with classes (this is the better and easier way).
