  • PNG, they scale well. I will try with those for sure.

  • hmm. I can see this working for the player well enough. I'm concerned about the other objects. Like the creatures that start massive giant... maybe something a long those lines can work.

  • I had an idea to do a game similar to Spore's first stage cell game. Where the player consumes other simple organisms and get's larger. The thing is C2 doesn't support SVG or smooth scaling graphics. So i'm seeking some insight as to how to handle the growth of the player. Let alone the potential large number of objects. At some point the tiny creatures become nothing.

    function"movePlayer"

    Pick Nth "asteroid"    floor(random(0, asteroid.count))

    -> set player.x = asteroid.x + whatever, player.y = asteroid.y + whatever

    on start of layout[[or however when player starts in area]]

    call function "move player"

    if player is overlapping

    call function "movePlayer

    just a thought. procrastinator is right. Please give it a day. Different times zones, jobs, special events all contribute to different reasons for a response that isn't in a few minutes. Some times you will get lucky, other times it could take days. hmm, I should bump my scenegraph suggestion. it's been about 2 weeks :D

  • mwa ha ha ha. I actually do this all the time. I was told once it's a known programmers phenomenon. I've taken to talking to myself(one way) to do this. Though sometimes it still comes up posting on forums. It all has to do with hearing it or reading it and then your brain comprehends it more sometimes :D

  • Looking awesome :)

    Cannons would often fire down the front or back of the ship from there own broad side. Cannon balls would just go through the wood with a lot of force. This would result with a lot of cannons traveling through most of the ship rather than just broad to broad.

    Altertnativly you could have damage determine by the angle of the attack instead. The closer the cannon balls come in at 0 or 180 the greater the damage.

  • use a sprite that's is is always center on the player and the light source.

    width = distance(player, light)

    height = 20

    if the sprite "is overlapping; invert" shadow casting objects. Then kill player.

  • That was fun :D

    yeah. little more jump height. Once I found myself in the bottom row it was very difficult to get out of.

  • Looking forward to instance bank, but I can work with sprite bank right now. Really appreciate this plugin a lot.

  • I haven't mentioned this Rex, but I love you :D in a platonic respectful way. I had noticed the spritebank a few months ago, but it was only over the weekend that I decided to work on a User Generated Content game. Also I needed a way to do a level save and loader.

    By using families and using instant variables I can build levels. Your Spritebank works like a charm in regards to JSON to text, text to JSON and it stores the family behaviours. I love you.

  • very beautiful, mostly relaxing :D
