    Of course.. just give me some time to figure out the easiest way...probably another array or two

    Wow cool! SOunds great. Thought the same about a new array. One for DriverStandings and one for TeamtStandigns maybe?

    Edit: I've seen you integrated possible crashes. That is an awesome little feature. I really like this. Just tested it and seen that the crashed drivers have no name on the classement (I think because you delete the whole line). Is it possible to set the crashed drivers to the end of the standigns and instead of points give out a text like "DNF"? That would be awesome Because then I could extend this myself to technical car failures also.

    Sorry for the bunch of questions. I just try to understand the way you are doing this nice capx

  • RaceArray.capx

    edit: ...fixed capx...I hope...

    Wow! Thank you very much! Exactly what I was trying to do. I'll try to integrate it into my project.

    Looks like I have to read some array stuff to get more comfortable with!

    Just one question. I wanted to add a drivers and team standings into the app. Can I easily add the won points to the Drivers and Teams Array?

    Thank you!

  • I've got something to work but now I still have some

    problems.

    I sorted the array but sometimes some names are shown duplicated and sometimes it works great.

    Dont know why this happens. Anyone has some experience with it?

  • No one with some array knowledge out there?

    Can't figure it out...

  • Hey folks,

    I'm developing a racing manager game right now.

    But now I just have some trouble in simulating a race (without visual just result)

    This is what I got:

    ArrayTeam

               Team1     Team2
Name       team1     team2
Car          80        74
[/code:ygb3edri]

[b]ArrayDrivers[/b]

[code:ygb3edri]
           Driver1     Driver2     Driver3    Driver4
Name        alex       daniel      kevin      niko
Skill       65         70          84         61
onteam      team2      team1      team2       team1
[/code:ygb3edri]

Now I wanted to simulate a race mixing the car performance and the driver skill (Plus a random given tolerance by +/- 10% for every car and driver. That way I would get some random rankings). After that I wanted to show a a result text screen with every driver gets points for the position they ended up with (1st gets 25 Points, 2nd gets 18 and so on).

My english is not the best. Hope anyone can help me out with it!

Regards,
Kraudi

  • Hi!

    It's looking nice!

    My whishlist:

    - also support the cursor keys

    - the movement of the ship is VERY slow here! (did you handle the timescale? or is it like it has to be?)

    - maybe zoom more out to (smaller sprites) to get a better overview

    To be honest i stopt playing because of the slow movement....

    I like:

    - the gui

    - the background

    - the idea

    Thanks you for testing! You're right. Ship movement etc. is not balanced yet. Have you used LEFT SHIFT (Thruster)? Ship will be a lot faster.

    The plan was to make ship ugpgrades so your ship gets better over time (More speed, better shield etc). I will increase the speed for the next version so maybe you like it more

    Zoom is a good point and I think I will add it when the sector map will increase.

  • Thanks. It worked

    The size came from a template I bought. Don't know how to resize it to about 20% of the size.

    But thanks for the quick help!

  • Hey guys,

    how do I use a spritefont in different areas of the game instead of creating a spritefont for every text. I have a spritefont which is 2048x2048px. That means every spritefont object has about 30mb memory cunsumption.

    How can I use one spritefont for different variables I want to show. Right now I have 10 seperate objects for every text (which ends up in 300mb memory cunsumption)

    Is there any way? Can you also use different behaviours on one spritefont?

    Thanks and regards
