mike_g: if it hits the ground or ceiling it should be vy=-vy and for walls vx=-vx; otherwise it would try going through the wall but move towards it differently.

yeah, you're going about it a bit off. Reflection is based on a simple principal: the angle of incidence equals the angle of reflection. So, as you can see the angle that it hits the surface is the same as the one that it reflects at. if you*snip*

i can't think of any geometric postulate to help you here... are there any other known angles? I don't know what you're doing, but it would appear that you're going about it in the wrong way... what are you trying to accomplish?

Blitz types....

In the past, I've used it to reference one type from within another. Think of like, pikman for example: you've got one guy with a bunch of little pikman following him around; so you'd reference all the pikman as handles from the space man's type as a field*snip*

you shouldn't need separate type lists for all the sizes of asteroids anyway. You can just add a field like "field asteroid_Type" and then make a set of global constant variables "aT_small=0, aT_medium=1, aT_large=2..etc.." and just change its behavior bas*snip*

Best way to implement network movement system?

8th July 2008

what do you mean when you say 'reliable packets'? technically no packets over UDP are 'reliable' in terms of order, consistancy, etc. I don't see why you'd have to make them as such. I would just send it to the server and let the server do the bounds-check*snip*

Moving an entity in a wavy pattern

7th July 2008

aha! i didn't figure it out until i remembered calculus: in your scenario, you have the sine curve acting as the velocity graph, in mine its the position graph. What that means is, that your object's velocity is going from 1 to -1, whereas my position is g*snip*

Diablo III

i highly doubt it. Blizzard has been expanding so rapidly that they've got a lot going on right now. Starcraft II is coming out soon, expansions to WoW, and now Diablo III. They've constantly got job opportunities listed, which means they're always hiring.*snip*

ImagesCollide vs. RectsOverlap

22nd June 2008

Only if the image's size was constant -- it would make no difference using ImagesOverlap or RectsOverlap if you had to look up the height & width of it, but if you knew that it was always 32 pixels wide & high, then RectsOverlap would be faster.
