  • It acts as an array. No need to store it in an array, because it is using a 'seed'. Any time you use the same seed the expression noisejs.perlin2(X, Y) returns the same random value for the same X/Y.

    Try to make/handle an array with a dimensions (100.000,100.000,1), and you will understand why not to bring it into an array.

    noisejs.perlin2(100.000, 100.000) has no problem to calculate that value without storing this value (and all other 10000000000 values) in a memory eating array.

    But if you insist to do so. This is the example in the first post in this topic + 1 line more code.

    Hey, could you please let me know what code is it. I don't have latest beta. Cheers.

    console.log(this.charWidthJSON);[/code:3d1xypx3] from the [i]instanceProto.onCreate[/i] function? It really slows down object creation. I have leaderboards with thousands of entries and this one log slows it down by several seconds.

I also just removed this line of code.
I guess you can upload it here so others can use it as well

    Hey, where to remove it?

  • Prominent Hey, nice plugin. How does relative pinning works? Also, a lot of the times I want to reposition pinned objects when pinned too object is on screen, like shadow of a jumping charakter. for example, to be re positioned only on y axis, and so on. Is this possible in your plugin, or could you maybe add code that would allow to reposition object by setting its position trough action, without need to unpin and then pinning it again? Cheers

    Hi, thx. Can't open it up because not using latest beta. I want to add noise to 300x300 array, to create some environments, like rivers and then to test it against other values. Cheers.

  • Hi, how do I put this noise in to array? thx

  • Yes and yes. That is the primary purpose of the Container.

    Thanks for the info!

  • Hi,

    A two small questions: if I have two object in container, and I spawn one of them, then the other is created too, right? Am I able then, to set access both of this objects trough actions inside the same even following "create"? Also, if I pick one of those two objects, is the other object in container automatically picked, and I can set it up without additional picking or not?

  • Heya,

    well... not sure how I'm gonna tackle that to be honest. I have no idea how to inject a developer or version ID into a blitzmax program. Maybe I can ask around...

    In the meantime though..:

    I got in-game screenmode switching working reliably now. Finally! So that means you'll be able to switch between resolutions and between window and fullscreen modes from within your game, just like in any native engine

    These are some wonderful news

  • Yes it's always 0 based index of sprites picked by the condition you set, this could be all of a family, all sprites that have a variable set to 0 etc. Not sure what your game does exactly but creating many objects can eventually affect performance.

    I'm creating trails. Sort of infinite runner type of generation. They move from top of the screen to bottom. Idea was, that once they leave the layout they are free to be picked by the pathway generator and be placed again on top of the screen. Alternatively I just create object on top of layout, and destroy once it leaves the layout.
