  • It's not bad to use millisecond events. It only gets inaccurate if you're using a very small number of milliseconds, because your timed event might fall between ticks and won't get passed until the next tick.

    90% of the time it's such a tiny discrepancy that it won't visibly affect your game at all. But as a general rule I usually don't use anything less than about 50 milliseconds, unless you know without a doubt that it's not going to be an issue.

    Edit:

    For things like smooth motion and fading sprites and such, as tulamide was saying, it's a good idea to use timeDelta, yes. For things like machine guns spawning bullets, using Every X millisecond is fine, and if you have a small number of milliseconds then it's not going to affect your game too much.

  • Wouldn't timedelta make things slower?

    Azu.... come one man!

    You've been a member since 2007, I think it's time to learn what timeDelta does and how to use it

  • I'm getting a 404. Just a heads up.

  • We don't really do that either. Pretty much we only delete spam or hateful remarks.

    Just an FYI.

  • I was insulted many times in chat! Did you do anything about it? NO! Did the fact that you were the one doing the insulting have anything to do with it? Maybe!

    That's because you're a terrible person. And you smell like old biscuits.

  • I merged your post into your old thread. There is no reason to make another. Just make a new post saying you have a new domain name and update your OP.

  • They think it's funny to insult people and calling them trolls etc.I have never experienced this on other indie forum's.Sorry for dropping you this way , But i don't want to do anything when im being insulted this way.

    If someone is insulting or trolling you then feel free to hit the report button. We can't do anything about it unless we see it happening.

  • And maybe because "no man" would be foolish enough to set foot out there between the trenches?

  • I've created a sticky thread for testing your competition ideas here:

    The Thunderdome

    To keep forum clutter and broken hearts to a minimum, I strongly urge everyone to use it.
