  • DUTOIT thanks for the advice, I just buy it

  • OMG! I can't belive! It's it's ... the template is functional out of the box?

  • Works fine!

  • Wow It's very cool!

  • Hi,

    I'm using VMWare with my Mac and work perfect!

  • Hi DUTOIT,

    Yes, the button is only for testing the calls to functions on this prototype. Thanks for your advice.

    Edit: To use the "IndexOf" for the X only in 2D array or 3D array? is posible or search for the entire array?

  • Hi DUTOIT,

    Thank you for your example. It's other approach that work fine but need that the zones was like a chess board to move to, in my case my boardmap it's about irregular shapes. With your examples and explanations I continue working, and I guees I solved my problem.

    [attachment=1:7w1od07p][/attachment:7w1od07p]

    I created to functions that when the user touch one zones, check the array and highlight the desired zones from the array. I'm only I need to created the map, extract each zone with their frames and create the array where I put where the player can move. The same solution can be applied to the units or whatever.

    Attach an screen capture with the solution.

    This one example of mapboard but can be extensible to any other model.

    The use of an array to control destinations, attributes, values is more easy and automatically. Now I will continue with the tokens movement.

    News questions are:

    How avoid the "undefined value" error when try to read one array position?

    How find into an array for a value and replace it? I found "TheindexOf" and "TheValueOf"

    I guess that if the search value work fine is better than the use of repeat.

    Thoughts?

  • Hi DUTOIT,

    Initialy Desktop and tablet.

    Yes, I see the repetitive code, then the idea of manage it from arrays and perform the basic operations with repeats.

    I the last .capx I create a new function that change de frame with two params, the zone and the frame.

    These function must be called inside the repeat for the destinations.

  • Hi DUTOIT,

    Attach the .capx

  • Hi DUTOIT,

    That I try is to loop through the destination zones and change the frame assigned.

    Array sample

    0: Z1, 2,3,5

    1: Z2, 1,5,6

    2: Z3, 2,2,4

    With the first loop I found the "Zxx" store into a local variable to fix the Y and loop through the X axis.

  • Hi DUTOIT,

    Attach new screen capture with the repeat inside repeat...

    The problem is that I don't see how repeat only for the local stored X.

    Any idea? I'm close to solve it...

  • Hi DUTOIT,

    Now I have the first loop working. Attach screen capture.

    But the second one I have no idea how insert it.

    Array example

    (0,0) Z1
(0,1) Z2
(0,2) Z3

Destinations for Z1
(1,0) 2
(2,0) 3
(3,0) 5

Destinations for Z2
(1,1) 1
(2,1) 6
(3,1) 7

Destinations for Z3
(1,2) 1
(2,2) 3
(3,2) 7
[/code:329ijiwh]

From the touch of each zone I call the function.

[code:329ijiwh]
function SelectZone (pZoneID)

repeat for each Zone // Where the ZoneID is the X (0,currentY)
    if Zone of the array=pZoneID // We found the Zone
           repeat for each Zone // where is the X (currentX, the Zone ID)
               change frame of the sprite
[/code:329ijiwh]

Thoughts?

  • Hi DUTOIT,

    I guess I have the trick.

    {"c2array":true,"size":[3,5,1],"data":[[["Z1"],[2],[7],[6]],[["Z2"],[1],[3],[6],[7]],[["Z3"],[2],[4],[6],[7]]]}[/code:z3wo719s]

With this array I can get the values myArray.At(0,3) & " " & myArray(1,4) myArray.At(2,3) with the values 6 7 6. This is OK, but I'm on two dimension array, isn't? So If I put "size":[3,5,0] the values don't work.
Is mandatory define one dimension for the Z?

Salut,

  • Hi DUTOIT,

    Yes, I found it and I was playing with it about populating the card. It's very interesting. I will try now with this and report my steps.

    By now I tryed this but I can't put into the X dimesion.

    {

    "c2array": true,

    "size": [ 7, 5, 1 ],

    "data": {

    "Z1": [ [ 3, 2 ]

    ]

    }

    }

  • DUTOIT, I have different points inside the region sprite to show status, clan owner, resources, then from the loop I can update all.

    How show you to the player for example the owner of each country? or the momevent?

    Create the array using C2, where? I don't see any option, how can I export or extract the file one time is into the files folder?
