j\\'ordos	I'm writing a simple 2D overhead 360 degrees space shooter in blitz3d. The problem I'm having is that I don't know how to calculate the ship's 'roll' (I have a bunch of frames for each ship with an image for each direction and varying stages of roll). Can anyone help me out here? Here's how the sprites are laid down (conveniently ripped from subspace aka continuum ) edit: in case it's useful, here's the player's update loop: .update_player Turn=KeyDown(pl\key_right)-KeyDown(pl\key_left) ;determine turn direction pl\angle#=pl\angle#+5TurnFL\SpeedFactor ;apply rotation If pl\angle#>359 ;check angle overflow pl\angle#=0 ElseIf pl\angle#<0 pl\angle#=359 EndIf Thrust=KeyDown(pl\key_up)-KeyDown(pl\key_down) ;determine thrust direction speedx#=0.1Thrusttable_sin(Floor(pl\angle#)) ;calculate thrust speedy#=0.1Thrusttable_Cos(Floor(pl\angle#)) pl\s#=pl\s#+speedx#(Abs(pl\s+speedx)<3) ;apply thrust pl\t#=pl\t#-speedy#(Abs(pl\t-speedy)<3) pl\x#=pl\x#+pl\s#FL\Speedfactor# ;apply velocity to player position pl\y#=pl\y#+pl\t#FL\Speedfactor# If KeyHit(pl\key_fireA) pr.projectile_f=New projectile_f pr\x#=pl\x#+15.5+15table_sin(Floor(pl\angle#)) pr\y#=pl\y#+15.5-15table_Cos(Floor(pl\angle#)) pr\s#=12table_sin(Floor(pl\angle#))+pl\s# pr\t#=-12table_cos(Floor(pl\angle#))+pl\t# EndIf If Thrust<>0 And pl\exhaust_t=0 calc1s#=table_sin(180+Floor(pl\angle#)-359(pl\angle#>179));precalc sin&cos calc1c#=table_cos(180+Floor(pl\angle#)-359(pl\angle#>179)) ex.exhaust=New exhaust ;exhaust 1 ex\x=screenxmid+10+15Sin(170+Floor(pl\angle#)) ex\y=screenymid+10-15Cos(170+Floor(pl\angle#)) ex\s#=thrust4calc1s#FL\SpeedFactor ex\t#=thrust4calc1c#FL\SpeedFactor ex\frame=0 ex.exhaust=New exhaust ;exhaust 2 ex\x=screenxmid+10+15Sin(190+Floor(pl\angle#)) ex\y=screenymid+10-15Cos(190+Floor(pl\angle#)) ex\s#=thrust4calc1s#FL\SpeedFactor ex\t#=thrust4calc1c#FL\SpeedFactor ex\frame=0 pl\exhaust_t=5 Else pl\exhaust_t=pl\exhaust_t-1(pl\exhaust_t<>0) ;advance exhaust delay timer EndIf DrawImage gfx_wb,screenxmid,screenymid,200+Floor#(pl\angle#/9)+40Int(pl\roll#) Return --v It seems to be working fine (aside from bullets sometimes not quite travelling the same direction as the ship is pointing), just need a way to add that roll effect

j\\'ordos	I tried two solutions that someone provided me with but I can't get them to work correctly. I'm weak with math so could anyone check these formulas for any errors? First method I tried was using the inverse radius of a cricle: Function getcurvature(p1x#, p1y#, p2x#, p2y#, p3x#, p3y#) Local A#, B#, C#, D#, E#, F#, G#, cx#, cy#, rad# A = p2x - p1x B = p2y - p1y C = p3x - p1x D = p3y - p1y E = A * (p1x + p2x) + B * (p1y + p2y) F = C * (p1x + p3x) + D * (p1y + p3y) G = 2 * (A * (p3y - p2y) - B * (p3x - p2x)) If G = 0 Then Return 0 Else cx = (D * E - B * F) / G cy = (A * F - C * E) / G rad = Sqr((p1x - cx) ^ 2 + (p1y - cy) ^ 2) rad=1/rad Return rad EndIf End Function --v I found it in the blitz code database Results were odd though. Next I tried getting the sinus of the angle of a triangle Function get_curvature(p1x#, p1y#, p2x#, p2y#, p3x#, p3y#) Local dist1#,dist2#,dist3#,curve# dist1#=Sqr(Exp(p2x#-p1x#)+Exp(p2y#-p1y#)) dist2#=Sqr(Exp(p3x#-p2x#)+Exp(p3y#-p2y#)) dist3#=Sqr(Exp(p1x#-p3x#)+Exp(p1y#-p3y#)) curve#=Sin(ACos((Exp(dist1#)+Exp(dist2#)+Exp(dist3#)/(2dist1#dist2#)))) Return curve# End Function --v my own making so may be erroneous. here's the code to log the three coordinates I need for the formula: pl\clog=1-pl\clog pl\xlog#[pl\clog]=pl\x# pl\ylog#[pl\clog]=pl\y# pl\x#=pl\x#+pl\s#FL\Speedfactor# ;apply velocity to player position pl\y#=pl\y#+pl\t#FL\Speedfactor# pl\roll#=get_curvature(pl\x#,pl\y#,pl\xlog#[pl\clog],pl\ylog#[pl\clog],pl\xlog#[1-pl\clog],pl\ylog#[1-pl\clog]) --v Executed each cycle. Maybe that's too fast so the points are too close to each other? Might not be good for floating point inaccuracy? Also, I think I still need a way to detect a left or right roll with these formulas. On an unrelated note, is there any need to use a rectsoverlap() check before imagescollide() or does imagescollide do it's own bounding box check first? Thanks!

Mog	Funny thing, I have all of Jeff Petersen's notes on his engines (the guy who made Continuum) but sadly, i'm not on my main PC Give me a while and i'll update you. I'm thinking that if it's anything like his other games, it's simply stepped through by a simple algorithm that corresponds with the frames through simple multiplication. I remember having to do the same for my Infantry project (another one of his games) and it being like that. Like said, give me a bit and i'll dig up those notes... -=-=- I am Busy Mongoose - My Website Dev PC: AMD 8150-FX, 16gb Ram, GeForce GTX 680 2gb Current Project: Pyroxene

j\\'ordos	Hey that's be awesome! You had anything to do with infantry? Or did you try programming your own version? Subspace kept the upright frames and the rolling frames in seperate images (the rolling effect could be disabled), I just added them together since I thought it'd be easier that way. Anyway it'd be nice to have information on how the original did things!

Mog	I was an early tester that came from the whole SubSpace crowd, and contributed some media over the years to the Harmless Games team... now a few players and myself are working on a newer client / server suite with things such as bots and heavier scripting capabilities. Anyways, I haven't played too much with SS/Con, what was the exact original media so i can kind of match it up to what i know -- You said you merged all of them into one file? -=-=- I am Busy Mongoose - My Website Dev PC: AMD 8150-FX, 16gb Ram, GeForce GTX 680 2gb Current Project: Pyroxene

j\\'ordos	Yes, subspace has one image file with all ships lumped together, but only the 'upright' image frames (no roll), like this: Then it has one image file for each ship (so 8 files in total) containing the rolling frames, just like the one I attached to the first post, except I added the upright frames to the center of that image, the idea being that I'd have a roll variable which would become negative for a roll in one direction and positive for a roll on the other direction (0 for upright). But the original files do not have the upright position in there.

Mog	Here's a quick idea until i work it out. You have 40 frames per angle/roll, and 5 roll sectors to left and right with one neutral in the middle. Dead center facing up is frame 200, so naturally -1 (Roll to Left) and +1 (roll to right) will fall at 200-40 (160) and 200+40 (240). Like said, sadly i'm not on my normal workstation and can only kludge together this quick code for blitz3D to display this idea. Mind you that the end frame is Starting frame +39 (since frame 0 is still technically a frame!), and within your game, you may want to round frames by angle to get the true frame you should be rendering - which off the top of my head, 360 / 40 = 9 steps between each frame. Graphics 800,600,0,2 SetBuffer BackBuffer() img=LoadAnimImage("wbroll.png",36,36,0,440) MidHandle img Global frame=200 Global endframe=frame+40 Global Roll=0 While Not KeyDown(1) frame=frame+1 If frame>Endframe Frame=frame-39 If KeyHit(203) Roll=Roll-1 CalculateRoll() EndIf If KeyHit(205) Roll=Roll+1 CalculateRoll() EndIf DrawImage img,400,300,frame Flip Cls Delay 20 Wend Function CalculateRoll() If Roll<-5 Roll=-5 If Roll>5 Roll=5 Frame=200+(Roll*40) endframe=frame+39 End Function --v -=-=- I am Busy Mongoose - My Website Dev PC: AMD 8150-FX, 16gb Ram, GeForce GTX 680 2gb Current Project: Pyroxene

j\\'ordos	Thanks but I already got that far: I originally checked if the player was both thrusting and turning at the same time, if true I would add/substract from a roll var which I capped at 5/-5. Then I'd display the ship like this: DrawImage gfx_wb,screenxmid,screenymid,200+Floor#(pl\angle#/9)+40*Int(pl\roll#) --v This works fine but if the player is still moving due to inertia and then turns his ship and only after turning starts thrusting again the ship will change direction without rolling. It's a minor issue now I look at it again, but in subspace it's done differently (the ship rolls even in the above mentioned case) and I'd like to emulate it as close as possible
Fri, 16 Jul 2010, 08:28
Mog	I always thought in Subspace, when you turned it simply banked to whatever direction they were turning then slowly faded back to neutral. I'm trying to wrap my head around what you mean about it not banking after thrusting out of an inertial drift (right? is that what you meant?) that it doesn't bank.. So are you trying to only make it bank only when thrusting and turning? Bank only in inertial drift? Again, sorry for lack of further help and stumbling about, been on bare-minimal amount of sleep lately D: -=-=- I am Busy Mongoose - My Website Dev PC: AMD 8150-FX, 16gb Ram, GeForce GTX 680 2gb Current Project: Pyroxene

j\\'ordos	No, the ship only banks when the ship's vector changes, turning in place does not bank the ship. The code you provided would bank the ship when turning even when the ship's not moving. The effect I was trying to describe is when a player thrusts his ship forward, releases the thrust key - the ship continues to travel in the same direction and at the same speed due to frictionless physics - then the player would turn the ship without applying thrust. At this point the ship should not bank as it hasn't changed the actual direction it's traveling yet. Only when the player then applies thrust again, after turning the ship, should the ship bank. This is how it happens in the latest continuum client at least. The code I devised at first did not bank the ship unless the player was holding down both a turning key and a thrusting key. The two 'solutions' I attempted in my second post don't work properly. Sorry if it's a bit confusing, I don't know how to describe it any better.

j\\'ordos	I could use some help making the AI ships 'lead' their shots. I have the following setup: first we get the distance between the player and the AI Dist=Sqr((np\x#-pl\x#)^2+(np\y#-pl\y#)^2) --v then we calculate the time needed for the projectile to cover that distance t#=dist/wb\speed ;wb stands for weapon_bomb --v and then we calculate the target x&y pos based on the player's current x&y speed and angle: tx#=pl\x#+(t#pl\s#)table_sin(Floor(pl\angle#)) ty#=pl\y#-(t#pl\t#)table_cos(Floor(pl\angle#)) --v The accuracy is appalling though. Feels like there is something inherently wrong with this code... Another problem is that it does not take into account the velocity of the AI spaceship, which is added to that of the bullet. bm\s#=wb\speedtable_sin(Floor(np\angle#))+np\s# ;bm stands for bomb bm\t#=-wb\speedtable_cos(Floor(np\angle#))+np\t# --v

j\\'ordos	Wow that's awesome! I've been busy implementing the intercept thingy, I'm sure the rest of that math library will be very useful during this ordeal too (the input library too now that I think of it, but later, when I get to menu functions such as customize key bindings) Sadly it looks like the ship roll is still not what I meant it to be - I myself managed to get it as far as rolling only when the player was both thrusting and turning at the same time, which your first example seems to be doing. (I like the runtime generated ship, might have to steal that for the radar map or something ). What I'd like to do is to make it roll only when the ship actually changes it's course. here's an image of the event I've been trying to explain earlier where this code fails: A ship is cruising along at some speed. The ship is not thrusting but keeps it's momentum due to frictionless physics used. Then the player turns without thrusting. The ship does not and should not roll. Fine so far. The player stops turning and now the ship is pointing in another direction but still moving in it's original heading. The player applies thrust and the ship changes it's direction gradually: now it should roll but it doesn't in either of the two proposed setups (ship rolls when turning & ship rolls when turning and thrusting) since the player is only thrusting and not turning! Hopefully I managed to explain the problem clearly this time edit: The problem is minor ofcourse - I'm just wondering how this kind of effect can be done since it is implemented that way in subspace/continuum. Also it's current implementation may be harder to do for AI ships.

Teasy	Ahh, that's an interesting type of roll. It seems you're after the rotation deviation, so to speak, rather than the rotation velocity. E.g. the difference between the heading and the angle ('facing'), rather than the current rotational 'strength': RollPosition = RotationDeviation ThrustVelocity* I'll outline the steps I've taken to mimic this behavior. 1. Converting your diagram to a function using an AngleDifference function, most conveniently already located in the Math library Print AngleDifference( 90 , 0 ) ; + 90 left -1 Print AngleDifference( 90 , 180 ) ; - 90 right +1 Print AngleDifference( 90 , 270 ) ; -180 none 0 Print AngleDifference( 90 , 90 ) ; 0 none 0 Print AngleDifference( 90 , 0+45 ) ; 45 half left -.5 Print AngleDifference( 90 , 180+45 ) ; -135 half right +.5 WaitKey End --v 2. Deciding the type of interpolation/smoothing to use for the roll, adding a custom Tri (wave) function. ; 0 = 0 ; 45 = .5 ; 90 = 1 ; 135 = .5 ; 180 = 0 For i = 0 To 360 Step 45 lx1 = x1 x1 = i ly1 = y1 ly2 = y2 y1 = Sin( i ) * 50 + 100 y2 = Tri( i ) * 50 + 100 If i>0 Color 32,96,128 Line lx1,ly1 , x1,y1 Color 192,128,64 Line lx1,ly2 , x1,y2 End If Next WaitKey End Function Tri#( a# ) a = a + 90 a = RangeInt( a , 360 ) ;If a >= 360 ; a = a - 360 ;End If If a < 180 Return a/90-1 Else Return (270-a)/90 End If End Function --v 3. Final-testing the algorithm, wrapping the AngleDifference in either Sin() or Tri(). testalgo1 90,0 ; + 90 left -1 testalgo1 90,180 ; - 90 right +1 testalgo1 90,270 ; -180 none 0 testalgo1 90,90 ; 0 none 0 testalgo1 90,0+45 ; 45 half left -.5 testalgo1 90,180+45 ; -135 half right +.5 Function testalgo1( a1,a2 ) Print a1+" "+a2+" "+(-Tri( AngleDifference( a1,a2 ) )) End Function WaitKey End --v 4. And finally tweaking the existing game using the new code/formula.

I'm curious if this is the behavior you're looking for Well, I'm glad you like my ship And I hope you enjoy using it As well as any other code

j\\'ordos	Yes, that finally looks like the effect I'm trying to achieve! No success in implementing it in my game yet, it'll take some time to let all that math sink in. :s Well for a radar screen I won't be using a flame effect and thicker ship but glad to see you're enjoying yourself! edit: and after all this I'll have to start tackling AI math... Argh I'll never make it!
Fri, 13 Aug 2010, 08:39
Teasy	Hey, is there any chance/place to see your game in action? I'm curious what it feels like
Sun, 10 Oct 2010, 13:22
j\\'ordos	Hey Teasy, terribly sorry I didn't see this sooner! Truth be told, I lost interest pretty soon after this without ever getting to the implementation of the mathematics part Recently I've gotten back into programming slowly and I suddenly wondered if there'd be anything new here The game is indeed 'playable' and I'd be happy to upload it. As I said - the rolling part hasn't been implemented yet and looks completely wrong. edit: You can download it here: users.telenet.be/V776822/Project/spacewars4.zip (~6.4Mb) There's a scrolling background and a single AI ship that hunts you (most of the time, it sometimes can get lost ), firing bombs at you occasionally. You can shoot back with bullets(unlimited) and bombs (of which you have three). edit2: I forgot the controls: arrow keys to move, ctrl to shoot bullets and tab to fire bombs. By the way; there's a small bug where you can go over the top speed because of the recoil caused by firing a bomb. Currently the speed doesn't drop back to normal when that happens and thrusting won't work anymore so you're stuck. Easy to fix but yeah...

Teasy	awesome! the game looks and feels alot like (or identical to?) continuum i also love seeing ur AI stuff in action ^^ i really like the organization of your code. it was easy to find most things i can give some recommendations or optimizations (only related to code simplification) but first i'll "take a nice cup of stfu" because maybe ur not looking for this anyway so, here's what i've done to make it work ^^ i've made it a "quick and dirty" edit session, just for illustration. the "thrust" variable u were using was a simple boolean (0,1) to indicate whether the player is thrusting. i've expanded this to become a value ranging from 0 to 15 which is identical in my example program thanks to this there is a smooth transition from starting a thrust and stopping the thrust becoming visible in the eventual roll. there was a problem between the angle orientation between our programs. e.g. i was using a 0 degrees means 'up' while u were probably using another setup, like swapping sin/cos or inverting them (under the hood). (i use non-"traditional" orientation ^^) so i've messed a bit with the speedX and speedY vars (in your program called 'pl\s' and 'pl\t') as well as stuff like the ATan2 call and i've 'disabled' the 'reverse thrust' key/function for simplicity. i've modified some more things in your code like making the program work with any resolution, changing the radar blip blinkrate, making the enemy ship 'peaceful' (good for testing) and some other things ^^ i hope u will still understand or recognize ur old program lol oh, i've also added a grid so u can clearly see the ship motion ^^ and i also hope that the roll is now satisfactory feel free to ask if some (new) code is unclear AppTitle "SpaceWars 4" Const screenx=640;1280 Const screeny=480;1024 Const screenxmid=screenx/2;622;382 Const

j\\'ordos	Sweet! Thanks a lot Teasy, the code is quite clear, looks like it required less changes than I first imagined! Glad to see you managed to decipher my code without much problems, luckily the program isn't too big yet Any suggestions you may have are of course welcome! I'm trying to make the game look as much like subspace/continuum as possible for now, but it isn't my eventual goal to make a clone. I Just wanted to make a 360 shooter set in space and subspace seemed like a good starting point (not in the least because I could rip it's graphics ) There's still heaps of work left to do, and AI seems like the next step... I can use any advice anyone can give me on that Thanks for the other small edits by the way (except for disabling reverse thrust perhaps ), I love my game now <3

Teasy	Well, I am curious why you are converting from object to handle and back again, when you can simply use a direct reference to the object instead, as I see you're not using Object/Handle for abstraction (yet?). I mean, it looks really cool and daunting but my guess is that wasn't your intention ^^ In your code: Type player Field ship .. .. Type ship .. .. Local sh.ship=New ship .. Global pl.player=New player .. pl\ship=Handle(sh) .. .update_player sh.ship=Object.ship(pl\ship) wg.weap_gun=Object.weap_gun(sh\weap_gun) wb.weap_bmb=Object.weap_bmb(sh\weap_bmb) --v And when 'simplified': Type player Field ship.ship .. .. Type ship .. .. Local sh.ship=New ship .. Global pl.player=New player .. pl\ship=sh; .. .update_player sh=pl\ship; wg=sh\weap_gun; wb=sh\weap_bmb; --v Btw, I was wondering why you use the fieldnames 's' and 't' for horizontal/vertical velocities? Sometimes I use functions to wrap commonly used code. Or for example to make a process easier (like maths). Or to create an object in a unified way, or creating multiple types of objects using 1 function. Just for illustration, in your code: Local np.npc=New npc np\x#=50 np\y#=50 np\ship=Handle(sh) np\shield=1200 np\freq=1 np\target=Handle(pl) --v And with a function: Function NewNPC.NPC( x#,y# , ship.ship,shield,freq,target.ship ) Local npc.NPC=New NPC npc\x=x npc\y=y npc\ship=ship npc\shield=shield npc\freq=freq npc\target=target End function .. Local np.NPC=NewNPC( 50,50 , sh,1200,1,pl ) --v Hopefully you'll find something new here hehe ^^ Another example is for saving typing, and making the code easier to read and faster to modify For example using this function: Function SetColorXY( x,y ) Color colour(x,y,0),colour(x,y,1),colour(x,y,2) End Function --v Turning this: Color colour(pl\hlthbar_x,pl\hlthbar_y,0),colour(pl\hlthbar_x,pl\hlthbar_y,1),colour(pl\hlthbar_x,pl\hlthbar_y,2) --v Into this: SetColorXY pl\hlthbar_x , pl\hlthbar_y --v Also, I highly recommend using some constants for massively reoccuring values ^^ It also clarifies questions like "what does this '36' mean?" I love modifying my own old source code which use these constants where I otherwise would have no idea what some numbers meant Const ShipFrameSize = 36 .. gfx_wb=LoadAnimImage("GFX\Game\Ships\SideA\wbroll.bmp",ShipFrameSize,ShipFrameSize,0,440) .. If RectsOverlap( x,y , ShipFrameSize,ShipFrameSize , 0,0 , screenx,screeny ) --v For the AI, I've added a small addition that prevents it from turning a full 360 sometimes. Simply by calculating whether clockwise or counter-clockwise is the fastest turning direction to be facing the player. ; * turn to match predicted player-hit-angle ; use 'angle difference' to prevent npc from turning a near-full 360 sometimes turn_dir = Sgn( AngleDifference( target_angle , np\angle ) ) np\angle = np\angle + turn_dir * sh\turnspeed * FL\SpeedFactor --v Apparently there was a bug in the InterceptAngle function. Maybe I used an older version in a previous test program ^^ Anyway, I've replaced it with the most recent version, and it seems to be working excellently again Local target_angle# = InterceptAngle( np\x#,np\y# , np\s#,np\t# , pl\x#,pl\y# , pl\s#,pl\t# , wb\speed ) If target_angle = Unreachable ; use direct target_angle = VectorAngle( pl\x-np\x,pl\y-np\y ) EndIf --v Also, I've add a little radius check to see if the NPC is near the player, and if so, to stop thrusting, which gives it a bit more 'real' feel ; thrust only if not near player dist = VectorDistance( np\x-pl\x,np\y-pl\y ) Local aithrust# If dist >= maxdist aithrust = aithrust + 1 * FL\SpeedFactor Else aithrust = aithrust - 1 * FL\SpeedFactor EndIf aithrust = CapFloat( aithrust , 0,maxthrust ) --v To prevent local (or even global) variables from 'bleeding through' multiple parts of code, you could convert a Gosub section (or part of it) to a compartimentalized function ^^ Although, looking at your code, it is very inspiring to see how well it works and how easy it is to read/edit it without having used any functions First thing I see for example, for which also a Gosub section can be used, is making a centralized code-spot for respawning the NPC and player, because there are currently 2 places, for both the NPC and the player, to (re)spawn them, in the code. Btw, what were you planning on using the GetCurvature functions for? Personally I prefer code where there are less numbers and more concrete or abstract words/variables. For example, I would alter the following code: ex\x=pl\x+10+15Sin(170+Floor(pl\angle#)) ex\y=pl\y+10-15Cos(170+Floor(pl\angle#)) --v Into perhaps looking like this: exhaust\x = player\x + ExhaustOffsetX + VectorX( ExhaustDistance , 170+pl\angle ) exhaust\y = player\y + ExhaustOffsetY + VectorY( ExhaustDistance , 170+pl\angle ) --v This also allows using Sin/Cos tables ofcourse ^^ You could also use MidHandle on some images, so the orientation is centered, like for rotated ships, and, as such, requires no additional offsetting in the code I felt that the thrust display was a little 'unnatural' so I altered the entire exhaust velocity orientation from screen-based to 'game zone'-based. So now the NPC's exhaust trail looks identical to the player's I've also expanded the NPC's thrust code to have the same threshold as the player which is now also visible in the exhaust I've noticed you're sometimes using "#" as explicit variable type identifier. For example: np\x#=50 np\y#=50 --v But in Blitz, after declaration, you're free to omit the "#" Same goes for integers, and all other types of variables. Local integer% Local pointer.TYPE .. integer=Handle pointer --v I'm curious if you can implement reverse thrust the way you want it to function and look using the new thrust 'system' I've also hid all debugging values by default. Press (and hold) backquote (tilde key) to make all debugging values show up including some new marker/heading lines to clearly demonstrate the ship's motion. And some more small changes I hope you enjoy AppTitle "SpaceWars 4" Const screenx=640;1280 Const screeny=480;1024 Const screenxmid=screenx/2;622;382 Const screenymid=screeny/2;494;282 Graphics screenx,screeny , 0,3 SetFont LoadFont( "Small Fonts" , 11 ) gfx_wb=LoadAnimImage("GFX\Game\Ships\SideA\wbroll.bmp",36,36,0,440) gfx_jv=LoadAnimImage("GFX\Game\Ships\SideA\jvroll.bmp",36,36,0,440) junk_wb=LoadAnimImage("GFX\Game\Ships\SideA\junkwb.bmp",16,16,0,90) junk_jv=LoadAnimImage("GFX\Game\Ships\SideA\junkjv.bmp",16,16,0,90) exhaust=LoadAnimImage("GFX\Game\Fx\Exhaust.bmp",16,16,0,38) bullet1=LoadAnimImage("GFX\Game\Fx\Bullets.bmp",5,5,0,40) bombs=LoadAnimImage("GFX\Game\Fx\bombs.bmp",16,16,0,130) trail=LoadAnimImage("GFX\Game\Fx\trail.bmp",16,16,0,50) bombflsh=LoadAnimImage("GFX\Game\Fx\Bombflsh.bmp",8,8,0,6) explode0=LoadAnimImage("GFX\Game\Fx\X0.bmp",16,16,0,7) explode1=LoadAnimImage("GFX\Game\Fx\X1.bmp",128,64,0,8) icons=LoadAnimImage("GFX\Game\Ui\Icons.bmp",26,24,0,54) icondoor=LoadAnimImage("GFX\Game\Ui\Icondoor.bmp",11,13,0,24) hlthbar=LoadAnimImage("GFX\Game\Ui\hlthbar.bmp",116,28,0,2) disp=LoadImage("GFX\Game\Ui\disp.bmp") engyfont=LoadAnimImage("GFX\Game\Ui\engyfont.bmp",16,24,0,10) Const max_misc=14 Const max_star=7 Dim bg_misc(13) For bg=1 To max_misc bg_misc(bg-1)=LoadImage("GFX\Game\Bg\bg"+bg+".bmp") Next Dim bg_star(6) For bg=1 To max_star bg_star(bg-1)=LoadImage("GFX\Game\BG\star"+bg+".bmp") Next Const radarsize=screenx/8;150 Const radarrange=2000;screenx1.5;2000 Dim table_sin#(359) ;precalc sin&cos tables at 9 degrees intervals Dim table_cos#(359) For a=0 To 359 table_sin(a)=Sin(Floor(a/9)9) table_cos(a)=Cos(Floor(a/9)9) Next currentcol#=0 Dim colour(127,39,2) colors=LoadImage("GFX\Game\Ui\colors.bmp") SetBuffer ImageBuffer(colors) LockBuffer ImageBuffer(colors) For x=0 To 127 For y=0 To 39 pixel=ReadPixelFast(x,y) colour(x,y,0)=(pixel Shr 16) And $ff ;red colour(x,y,1)=(pixel Shr 8) And $ff ;green colour(x,y,2)=pixel And $ff ;blue Next Next UnlockBuffer() Function SetColorXY( x,y ) Color colour(x,y,0),colour(x,y,1),colour(x,y,2) End Function ;game types Type player Field x#,y#,xlog#[1],ylog#[1],clog,dlog,s#,t#,angle#,roll#,exhaust_t Field ship,shield,ammo#,reload#,bombs,freq Field hlthbar_x#,hlthbar_y Field key_left,key_right,key_up,key_down,key_fireA,key_fireB End Type Type npc Field x#,y#,s#,t#,angle#,roll#,exhaust_t Field ship,shield,freq Field target End Type Type exhaust Field x#,y#,s#,t#,frame# End Type Type bullet Field x#,y#,s#,t#,frame#,frame_end,particle_t,life,freq,dmg End Type Type particle Field x#,y#,col_x#,col_y End Type Type bomb Field x#,y#,s#,t#,frame#,frame_end,trail_t,life,freq,dmg End Type Type trail Field x#,y#,frame#,frame_end End Type Type explosion Field img,x#,y#,frame#,frame_end End Type Type debris_m Field img,x#,y#,frame#,frame_end,s#,t# End Type Type debris_s Field img,x#,y#,frame#,frame_end End Type Type FrameRate Field TargetFPS#,SpeedFactor# Field FPS# Field CurrentTicks Field FrameDelay End Type ;data types Type ship Field img,junk,accel#,topspeed#,turnspeed#,weap_gun,weap_bmb,shl_recharge,shield End Type Type weap_gun Field frame,dmg,speed,life,icon,multi,ammo,rof,reload End Type Type weap_bmb Field frame,dmg,speed,life,icon,proxy,recoil End Type Global FL.FrameRate=New FrameRate FL\TargetFPS#=35 FL\FrameDelay=MilliSecs() Local wg.weap_gun=New weap_gun wg\frame=20 wg\dmg=400 wg\speed=12 wg\life=9000 wg\icon=9 wg\multi=False wg\ammo=15 wg\rof=100 wg\reload=3000 Local wb.weap_bmb=New weap_bmb wb\frame=0 wb\dmg=2000 wb\speed=8 wb\life=14000 wb\icon=20 wb\proxy=False wb\recoil=1 Local sh.ship=New ship sh\img=gfx_wb sh\junk=junk_wb sh\accel#=0.05 sh\topspeed#=3 sh\turnspeed#=5 sh\weap_gun=Handle(wg) sh\weap_bmb=Handle(wb) sh\shield=1500 Const player_startx=350 Const player_starty=250 Global pl.player=New player pl\x#=player_startx pl\y#=player_starty pl\s=0 pl\t=0 pl\ship=Handle(sh) pl\shield=1500 pl\ammo=15 pl\hlthbar_y=4 pl\bombs=3 pl\freq=0 pl\key_left=203 pl\key_right=205 pl\key_up=200 pl\key_down=208 pl\key_fireA=29 pl\key_fireB=15 wg.weap_gun=New weap_gun wg\frame=0 wg\dmg=200 wg\speed=8 wg\life=9000 wg\icon=0 wg\multi=False wg\ammo=20 wg\rof=80 wg\reload=3500 wb.weap_bmb=New weap_bmb wb\frame=0 wb\dmg=2000 wb\speed=8 wb\life=14000 wb\icon=20 wb\proxy=False wb\recoil=1 sh.ship=New ship sh\img=gfx_jv sh\junk=junk_jv sh\accel#=0.06 sh\topspeed#=2 sh\turnspeed#=3 sh\weap_gun=0 sh\weap_bmb=Handle(wb) sh\shield=1200 Local np.npc=New npc np\x=Rand(0,100) ;

j\\'ordos	Excellent as always I didn't know there was an alternative to using object and handle to gain direct access to a custom type Thanks for your example! I'm curious though, what would be the use of object and handle then? (abstraction??) I think I just got the s and t names from whatever tutorial I was following at the time... It's possible I misinterpreted them though As for functions, in the case which you mention I haven't used any since the spawning and respawning code is temporary. It's true I will eventually use a function or sub to create all necessary npc's but that's something to think about later, when I have multiple AI ships flying around there are a few places which could use functions though, such as the bullet&bomb creation and npc/player damage&destruction. in general I tend to create as few functions as possible for some reason... I always think of the extra CPU cycles it would cost even though I realize the speed hit would be non-existent (this is also why I used subs instead of functions - I remember some old discussions which concluded gosub was slightly faster . I Also noticed in my previous games that I never needed to pass/return any arguments to those update_xx functions and I don't like creating globals ) Can't think of any argument against using a few more constants though Midhandle is also excellent, I remember thinking about it when I started the project but I wasn't sure what way would end up best... I edited the code which makes it a bit simpler now! Thanks for the AI additions I noticed there was a problem with the intercept function though I didn't find out what it was! And the AI exhaust flames were indeed bugged, I thought I'd be able to shave off a few calculations by offsetting the player's position when the flame was created but that didn't take into account the possibility the player might move :o (damn players always rebelling against my code!) The new thrust effect is looking good! Ah yes, the getcurvature functions were all previous (failed) experiments at achieving a nicely rolling ship I know you don't need to repeat the variable type symbols but I think it's useful to be able to see at a glance whether or not I'm dealing with a float or an integer I implemented the reverse thrust, but it may sometimes generate an occasional flame even when the player is not thrusting the way it is now: If KeyDown( pl\key_up ) ;thrust forward pl\thrust = pl\thrust + 1 * FL\SpeedFactor ElseIf KeyDown( pl\key_down) ;thrust backward pl\thrust = pl\thrust - 1 * FL\SpeedFactor Else ;no thrust pl\thrust = pl\thrust - Sgn(pl\thrust) * FL\SpeedFactor End If ... If Int(pl\thrust)<>0 And pl\exhaust_t=0 'create exhaust flames ... endif --v Anyway I merged your new code with my own progress (hope I didn't miss anything!), here's the new program. It's actually a game now You can dogfight the AI ship and there's a little score counter.

Teasy	Nice! Well, at first I thought you were planning on using the Target field (of the enemy) for storing any type of target, rather than just the player or a ship I've used some things like this in my Terra Colony game Both for abstraction and virtual polymorphism I guess abstraction is the most common form, used to create a virtual 'barrier' between the outer and inner workings of, say, a library or section of a program, supposedly to make it easier or clearer In the following program I've outlined abstraction as if it were a re-creation of some Blitz functions ; this program shows ; - library-style object/type abstraction ; - (virtual) function overloading (overriding) ; note: the % means Integer :) ; which is optional in Blitz ^^ ; but i've used it here ; to indicate a (custom) handle. Type IMAGE Field width,height Field pixels ; handle of bank with pixels End Type Function CreateImage%( width,height ) Local image.IMAGE image = New IMAGE image\width = width image\height = height image\pixels = CreateBank( widthheight ) Return Handle image End Function Function FreeImage( imagehandle% ) Local image.IMAGE image = Object.IMAGE imagehandle If image <> Null FreeBank image\pixels Delete image Return True End If End Function --v The next program shows both polymorphism and abstraction, in a way similar to what i thought you originally intended in your program ; unique 'target' types Type ASTEROID Field x#,y# End Type Global NumAsteroids Type PLANET Field x#,y# End Type Global NumPlanets Type SHIP Field x#,y# End Type Global NumShips ;--- Type PLAYER Field name$ Field craft.SHIP End Type ; an enemy would chase ; any kind of target Type ENEMY Field name$ Field craft.SHIP Field target ; handle to unknown type End Type ;--- Function SetEnemyTarget( enemy.ENEMY , target ) enemy\target = target End Function ; update an enemy's position ; by chasing its target ; obtained from a typecast ; - example of (virtual) type polymorphism Function UpdateEnemy( enemy.ENEMY ) Local x#,y# ; * 'typecast' the unknown target type (handle) ; until finding a valid object Local asteroid.ASTEROID = Object.ASTEROID( enemy\target ) Local planet.PLANET = Object.PLANET( enemy\target ) Local ship.SHIP = Object.SHIP( enemy\target ) ; target is an asteroid If asteroid <> Null x = asteroid\x y = asteroid\y ; target is a planet ElseIf planet <> Null x = planet\x y = planet\y ; target is a ship ElseIf ship <> Null x = ship\x y = ship\y End If ; simply chase target, J'Ordos style notation ^^ enemy\craft\x = enemy\craft\x + ( enemy\craft\x < x ) enemy\craft\y = enemy\craft\y + ( enemy\craft\y < y ) End Function ; * select a random target ; from any of 3 different types ; and return it as an integer handle ; - example of object abstraction Function GetRandomTarget() Local which Local num ; random object type ; - assumption: there's always 1 object of every type Select Rand( 1,3 ) Case 1 ; select random asteroid Local asteroid.ASTEROID which = Rand( 1,NumAsteroids ) For asteroid = Each ASTEROID num = num + 1 If num = which Return Handle asteroid End If Next Case 2 ; select random planet Local planet.PLANET which = Rand( 1,NumPlanets ) For planet = Each PLANET num = num + 1 If num = which Return Handle planet End If Next Case 3 ; select random ship Local ship.SHIP which = Rand( 1,NumShips ) For ship = Each SHIP num = num + 1 If num = which Return Handle ship End If Next End Select End Function Function SetRandomEnemyTarget( enemy.ENEMY ) enemy\target = GetRandomTarget() End Function --v Some more (background) information about Object and Handle in an old tutorial on a mirror of the BlitzCoder's Code Database. And at the bottom of this page. Note that you can omit the braces in Blitz typecasts completely, just like the type identifier (%$#.) after initial declaration. Rounded# = Int Pi Zebra$ = Str 101010 hWnd% = Handle pWnd MyPointer = Object.MYTYPE MyHandle --v I've been playing with your program/game a bit again; Great stuff Here's a list I've made of, again, a bunch of stuff I've changed - fixed 'phantomthrust' - simple range check to zero - added more debugging values and changed type - particularly relating to motion and aim (!) - added ability to disable enemy fire separately - for debug - added speedtime 'correction' in call to interceptangle which greatly improves accuracy - added an interval to check for intercept to decrease cpu usage - added a small delay for multicore systems time/os optimization - made enemy visible always - in debug mode - maybe some more small changes - increased (doubled) sin/cos table range to allow for additive use; - sin_table[ 170+angle ] - replaced some more direct sin/cos use by sintables ^^ which decreases the accuracy a lot, but makes all visuals faithful to the ship rotation/image - made angle 'flipping' accurate, using a RangeFloat function - added new enemy field for keeping track of 'active' target angle - for projectile intercept prediction now using average speed between bullet and bomb - replaced some 'Abs' with 'AngleDifference' - bugfix and increased precision of AngleDifference - restored original CapInt, and added new CapIntMin - which i used for limiting health for visual frames renamed modified version to CapIntMax - modified some millisecs() timing for illustration of bug-fixing a flipped Millisecs() value - temporarilly lowered NPC turning speed to 1 - default 3 to illustrate its accuracy (!) btw, all the Floor stuff can be removed inside for example the: - table_sin( Floor( obj\angle# ) ) because an arrays' index supports only integers anyway and Blitz automatically converts Floats into Integers (as well as many other automatic variable type conversions). some more significant improvements than stuff like Gosub etc are things like algorithms or the design of the program. for example many calls to MilliSecs() can slow the program down significantly, so i usually use a MilliSecs variable and refresh it once per frame, then use that variable for all of the time calculations. for example: Global Millisecs = Millisecs() Seedrnd Millisecs Repeat Millisecs = Millisecs() .. Forever --v Well, I hope you'll find some (new) things in here that's to your liking I may have forgotten to mention something, but I guess you'll find out soon enough ^^ AppTitle "SpaceWars 4" Const screenx=640 Const screeny=480 Const screenxmid=screenx/2-18 Const screenymid=screeny/2-18 Graphics screenx,screeny,0,3 ;SetFont LoadFont( "Small Fonts" , 11 ) SetFont LoadFont( "Tahoma" , 17 , True ) AutoMidHandle True ;'game' gfx ship_wb=LoadAnimImage("GFX\Game\Ships\SideA\wbroll.bmp",36,36,0,440) ship_jv=LoadAnimImage("GFX\Game\Ships\SideA\jvroll.bmp",36,36,0,440) junk_wb=LoadAnimImage("GFX\Game\Ships\SideA\junkwb.bmp",16,16,0,90) junk_jv=LoadAnimImage("GFX\Game\Ships\SideA\junkjv.bmp",16,16,0,90) exhaust=LoadAnimImage("GFX\Game\Fx\Exhaust.bmp",16,16,0,38) bullet1=LoadAnimImage("GFX\Game\Fx\Bullets.bmp",5,5,0,40) bombs=LoadAnimImage("GFX\Game\Fx\bombs.bmp",16,16,0,130) trail=LoadAnimImage("GFX\Game\Fx\trail.bmp",16,16,0,50) bombflsh=LoadAnimImage("GFX\Game\Fx\Bombflsh.bmp",8,8,0,6) explode0=LoadAnimImage("GFX\Game\Fx\X0.bmp",16,16,0,7) explode0_s=LoadAnimImage("GFX\Game\Fx\X0_S.bmp",16,16,0,7) explode1=LoadAnimImage("GFX\Game\Fx\X1.bmp",128,64,0,8) AutoMidHandle False ;UI gfx icons=LoadAnimImage("GFX\Game\Ui\Icons.bmp",26,24,0,54) icondoor=LoadAnimImage("GFX\Game\Ui\Icondoor.bmp",11,13,0,24) hlthbar=LoadAnimImage("GFX\Game\Ui\hlthbar.bmp",116,28,0,2) disp=LoadImage("GFX\Game\Ui\disp.bmp") engyfont=LoadAnimImage("GFX\Game\Ui\engyfont.bmp",16,24,0,10) ledfont=LoadAnimImage("GFX\Game\Ui\led.bmp",7,10,0,10) Const max_misc=14 Const max_star=7 Dim bg_misc(13) For bg=1 To max_misc bg_misc(bg-1)=LoadImage("GFX\Game\Bg\bg"+bg+".bmp") Next Dim bg_star(6) For bg=1 To max_star bg_star(bg-1)=LoadImage("GFX\Game\BG\star"+bg+".bmp") Next Const radarsize=screenx/8 Const radarrange=2000 ;Dim table_sin#(359) ;precalc sin&cos tables at 9 degrees intervals ;Dim table_cos#(359) ;For a=0 To 359 ;

j\\'ordos	Wow this is an enormous improvement for the AI! Excellent work Teasy, I love teamwork ^^ Ah I understand the handle/object use a bit better now. Thx for the quick overview. Looks like I'll need to use the target var as intended then, so I can use it to track both player as AI ships. Also I eventually want to have some capital ships flying around which may (or may not) become an entirely different class. I will need to find some images for large ships though, there are none in subspace/continuum. I'm still going over all the changes (an extra if then condition for the reverse thrust! The horror! ), thanks for the optimizations, those will be useful as I want to have lots of little ships duking it out . The doubled sin/cos table is a great idea! There does seem to be something wrong with the accurate tables though; you only used them for the debris scattering which didn't scatter anymore. Replacing the accurate table with the standard 9 degree interleaved one fixed it though. Can't see anything wrong with them at first glance... Dim table_sinA#(sincostablesize) Dim table_cosA#(sincostablesize) For a=0 To sincostablesize table_sin(a)=Sin(a) table_cos(a)=Cos(a) Next .. For a=0 To 8 dm.debris_m=New debris_m dm\img=junk_jv dm\x#=screenxmid+np\x# dm\y#=screenymid+np\y# dm\s#=table_sinA(Rand(44)a)+(np\s#) dm\t#=table_cosA(Rand(44)a)-(np\t#) dm\frame#=10*a dm\frame_end=dm\frame#+9 Next --v (by the way, there wouldn't be any way to preserve tabs when copying code from here would there? ) I'm aware of the automatic integer conversion but that uses int and not floor isn't it? I remember having a reason for wanting floor instead of int, though I can't remember it The interlace effect is fun by the way, works wonders on the background! (at least when in turbo mode) though it does make me dizzy when the grid is on :s Would be better if the UI wasn't affected I think... anyway, I'm off doing some more work!

Jayenkai	It "should" preserve it.. What browser/iDE combo are you using? -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''
