Re: Bgt question

Re: Bgt question
Re: Bgt question
Do you want it to be recursive, and can you proof it against people copying a directory into itself and causing it to replicate until you run out of disc space?You can probably get away with directory_create, then use a for loop to copy the files. Unless file_copy takes wildcards, in which case file_copy(dir + "\\*", newdir + "\\*")... but I think you need the loop.To make it recursive, you'd need a function that calls itself for every subdirectory. Again, with something like that, it must be able to avoid copying to itself, otherwise it will not stop until you run out of space, and maybe not even then, if it just ignores errors and keeps trying. Ex:void deepcopy (string head, string dest) { string[] dirs = find_directories(head + "\\*"); for (uint j = 0; j < dirs.length(); j++) deepcopy(head + "\\" + dirs[j], dest + "\\" + dirs[j]); string[] files = find_files(head + "\\*"); for (uint j = 0; j}Disclaimer: not tested, not infinite-proof.

Re: Bgt question
Re: Bgt question BGT has functions for find files and find directories, but it doesn't have a way to directly copy a directory. You can copy files though.This is actually super easy to accomplish in Python with a couple lines of code, but I'm not sure the less complex way of handling this in BGT.

Bgt question
Bgt question Hi all,I was wondering if anyone knew of a way of copying a directory to another one in bgt, including all of it's subfolders / files?The only ways I've thought to do this so far haven't really worked well at all. The closest thing I've been able to do so far was write a function that takes an array containing all the folders to copy then another containing all of the files, but of corse that just puts all the files and folders in the location you spessify regardless of where they should be, which is quite messy.Thanks in advance.

Re: BGT question
Re: BGT question That question is way to broad. There are any number of ways to code in a weapon and a lot of it depends on how you plan to use it in any given game.Some people might choose to create an entire weapon object. Some programs may not need that approach.Are there other types of weapons? Do your weapons change during the course of the game? How do they change: upgrade, leveling, spontaneous transmutation?You need to be much more specific in your question and how your program will work. And remember not many people here are willing to write your code for you. If you have a question about particular syntax, we would be happy to point you in the right direction--maybe even outline some pseudo code for you. But I, for one, would like you to narrow your question quite a bit before I could truly help you.

Re: BGT question
Re: BGT question BGT does have issues with wav files of certain bitdepths. Specifically, I think it only plays wavs with bitdepths that are powers of 2 (8, 16, 32), but not 24 or 36, etc. Maybe try playing c:\\windows\\media\\ding.wav, since that one always works. That file got kinda quiet post-xp, so if you want something louder, chord.wav is also reliable.If you can't get it to play ding or chord, then there is a very strange problem to be solved.

Yes, BGT can play .ogg files. If you want to do a non-repeating random sequence, that's a bit more complicated.You could accomplish this in several different ways. For example, you could have a third array, this one of bools, and do something like this:bool[] shown(size);// Don't assume it will initialize to all false:for (uint i=0; i<size; i++) { shown[i]=false; } string text="−";while (text != "") // allow the user a way to quit early.{ int index=random(0, size-1); while (shown[index]) { // check to see if we're done: bool done=true; for (uint i=0; i<size; i++) { if(!shown[i]) done=false; } if (done) index=-1; else index=random(0, size-1); if (done) break; } if (index<0) break; text = input_box(question[index], "Your answer:"); if (text=="" or text=="quit") break; // Ignore case: text=string_too_lower_case(text); if (answers[index]==text) { shown[index] = true; alert("Correct!", "That is the correct response!"); } else { alert("Incorrect!", "That is not correct!"); } } alert ("That\'s all!", "Thanks for playing!");

Re: bgt question
Re: bgt question Where is the inheritance in your Purebasic example? And why is Purebasic coming up, anyway?The whole point of polymorphism is not variables, it is class methods. You cannot do polymorphism without very interesting pointer tricks in languages that do not provide built-in support for classes. You can do giant ugly switch statements and if trees based on a type field, but the whole point here is that inheritance and polymorphism get rid of said switch statements and if trees, splitting your code into something thats manageable and can be considered in isolated chunks. They also let you add new fields to your subclasses, i.e. Enemy versus NamedEnemy. And now were both off topic, I guess.

Re: bgt question
Re: bgt question Hi,PureBASIC allows you to do this too. You can do something similar, but not like int num_enemies[] enemies;. Instead, you define a structure like so:Structure enemyname.sx.ly.lz.ltype.sEndStructureThen, wherever you like, polymorph it like so:Dim enemies.enemy(0)This is how DMPA and several of Reality Softwares games work.

Re: bgt question
Re: bgt question Also, congratulations on discovering polymorphism without being told about it. From where Im standing, thats exactly what you just did. And most programmers dont get it for a very long while even when its explained (I fell into this category, many a year ago).

Re: bgt question
Re: bgt question Yeah, actually polymorphism is explained in the bgt language tutorial. It is a beautiful thing once you figure it out. I wish bgt subported abstract classes though. They seem pretty cool, because they force you to conform to a syntax. Basically so you dont miss something when you define your subclasses. Thats what I learned about in java.

bgt question
bgt question I have an interesting bgt question:If I have for example a class called enemyAnd I make a subclass like this: Class spaceship : enemy and another called class tank : enemy;Can I then make an array of enemies enemy[] enemies; and put both tanks and spaceships?Thanks!

Re: bgt question Hi,I knew about this feature of bgt, but in the sort of minigames I am creating right now in it, I dont really need it for much as of right now. I can see it coming in very useful later on, though.

Hi, I have a very stupid math / bgt question Hi everyone,I have a very stupid math question, possibly only related to bgt.I am looking at various game examples and I see something like:score += board[player_position].landed ? 5 : 10;What do ? and : mean?Im sure its something really simple... what does this line do exactly?Thanks all URL: http://forum.audiogames.net/viewtopic.php?pid=201701#p201701 ___ Audiogames-reflector mailing list Audiogames-reflector@sabahattin-gucukoglu.com https://sabahattin-gucukoglu.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/audiogames-reflector
Re: Hi, I have a very stupid math / bgt question
Re: Hi, I have a very stupid math / bgt question
thats actually not a stupid question, believe it or not. Many programmers dont know what that does.Its commonly called the ternary operator, or at least it is in common usage. There is probably a more official name for it, but as its the only operator that takes 3 operands ternary operator is pretty unambiguous.Anyhow, its a shorthand if statement:expr ? true : false;Evaluates to whatever true is if expr is true or whatever false is if expr is false. If you wrote it out the long way:if(expr) {
variable =true;
} else {
variable = false
}I dont use it often, but thats probably because most of my expressions are already pretty long (o the joys of mathematical coding) and its worth just breaking them up. Also it lets me put in comments.Perhaps the most common use is this line, which is usually abstracted behind a function:var = var 0 ? -var : var;Also known as absolute value.

Re: Hi, I have a very stupid math / bgt question The operator is also called the conditional operator.

Re: Hi, I have a very stupid math / bgt question
Re: Hi, I have a very stupid math / bgt question Yep. Its not immediately obvious, but it is wonderful.Pythons version makes more sense, although its not in quite the same order, so porting between Python and C-like languages is more work with these.The Python version goes:x = A if p else cIIRC, theres no punctuation before the else. Itd be more screen reader readable if there was, but it at last makes a little more sense. I like ?: more for compactness, but Pythons goal is readability, and this is certainly more readable.(The developers of Python resisted adding it for ages, as Ive heard. But its too bloody convenient so people kept demanding it.)
