While not a web standard, it is fairly standardized at this point and unlikely to change.

I'd like to be able to insert a left to right- marquee into my game.

News ticker.

It's a semi-strategy incremental game.

Just floating an idea I have for my own website.

All arcades on the internet take a very large slice of the advertising pie. I propose to undercut them, I will take only 10%.

If php's LCG outputs less than 0.1, it will insert my adcode into the page. Else, it will insert your adsense adcode into the page.

PHP's lcg's properties are random enough for non-cryptographic use, such as for this. The LCG is seeded with the process ID and the microtime.

Any interest?

I reserve the right of review, and the only way you could send me your game is by a zip of the exported game.

Obviously your game will be displayed within an iframe, and the iframe must be of a reasonable size. This is obviously oriented towards desktop HTML5 games.

Noob question: what's the deal with PHP? Is it important to games?

Sorry for missing your question.

PHP helps with website design. I use it for my website to insert links at the bottom of a page, it's better than iframes. Some tutorials on scirra even mention php to store high scores.

I only suggested vlexofree because I had a good experience with the administration they have. It's very high quality for a free website. Pair it with a short domain and cloudflare (free CDN), and you'd have half decent bandwidth.

Agreed. They should mod phpbb to exclude that forum.

You can download source examples. I do it all the time.

It's still only in the design stages, it involves procedural generation. If I ever complete a demo of it, I'll post the capx.

Erm, sorry. Nevermind. I was thinking how to create hills, just figured out how. It involves arrays.

How do I create terrain that follows a sine wave?

Very good. Thank you.

Here's my suggested implementation: encrypt the stream position, and then convert it using crc32. After every function call, increment the stream position by 1.

This could be used for procedural generation. To my knowledge, the mersenne twister (at least a proper implementation) cannot easily seek to a stream position, while this could.

I can't code, so I tried and couldn't do it.

Even better, the xml sheet that stores your events should be able to remember if you left it open as of saving.

ryackov not many? Both Byet and 000Webhost offer PHP in addition to that large bandwidth, even x10 offers PHP with their free package.

I mean, granted, using Dropbox hosting is a great idea, but I'll still stick to my opinion that 5GB bandwidth is nothin'. I'd rather signup under one of these if I had the choice and simply not have to worry. :p

000Webhost literally only offers PHP.

And many free webhosts tend to be dishonest, throttling you once you approach a cap.
