Re: bgt, having trouble with classes, again
Re: bgt, having trouble with classes, again
The error it gave points to this line:if(shipx-3==barrier.x or shipx-2==barrier.x or shipx-1==barrier.x or shipx==barrier.x or shipx+1==barrier or shipx+2==barrier or shipx+3==barrier)It should be:if(shipx-3==barrier.x or shipx-2==barrier.x or shipx-1==barrier.x or shipx==barrier.x or shipx+1==barrier.x or shipx+2==barrier.x or shipx+3==barrier.x)However, there is a much simpler way to accomplish that condition:if(absolute(barrier.x-shipx)<=3)^ Since you want to know if the distance between shipx and the barrier is less than or equal to 3, just take the absolute value of the difference, and that is the total distance.A problem you will run up on rather quickly is writing collision detection for all the different walls. A way to speed this up would be to add a method to the wall class. It might be something like:bool contains(int px, int py) {return (absolute(x-px)<=3 and absolute(y-py)<=3);}Or
something like that.As for handles in general... if you need an object to be a property of a class, or if you just need an object to survive multiple scopes, or if you need an array of objects, you'll need to use handles. You can treat handles like the objects they point to for almost everything; you mostly only need to bother with the at sign for assignment and equality (E.G., if(@handle==null) ). The biggest difference between handles and regular variables is that variables get copied when they are assigned, but multiple handles can still point to the same object.

Re: bgt, having trouble with classes, again
Re: bgt, having trouble with classes, again is anyone willing to help me any further?I'm still confused at post 8, and have tried re reading the chapter on objects, classes and handles.I get the idea of classes, just handles themselves confuse me.

Re: bgt, having trouble with classes, again
Re: bgt, having trouble with classes, again It looks like you aren't storing the walls you're creating. If I understand the code correctly, the newgame function does this: URL: http://forum.audiogames.net/viewtopic.php?pid=235793#p235793 ___ Audiogames-reflector mailing list Audiogames-reflector@sabahattin-gucukoglu.com https://sabahattin-gucukoglu.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/audiogames-reflector
Re: bgt, having trouble with classes, again
Re: bgt, having trouble with classes, again It looks like you aren't storing the walls you're creating. If I understand the code correctly, the newgame function does this:assign shipx, shipy, and speed (global variables)play the engine sound, and assign its slot number to the global variable engineCreate a local variable i, initialize it to 0Since i is less than 6500, do the following:create a local variable called barrier, that is a wall with random parameters.delete barrier, since this iteration of hte loop is complete.increment i.repeat the last 4 lines until i is 6500 (Incidentally, that is a lot of objects and the sound pool will probably explode.)delete i, since the loop is complete.Create a local wall variable.Call gameloop.Delete barrierThe barrier variable created inside newgame (or inside the loop) cannot be accessed by any other functions. You probably want a global variable--in this case, probably an array or dictiona ry--to hold all the walls created in the loop.Try taking the linewall barrier(50, 350, 0);And either putting it outside the function, putting it at the start of gameloop, or splitting it into three lines:wall@ barrier; //outside of any functions or classes.// inside newgame:wall temp(50, 350, 0);@barrier=temp;I think BGT will complain about the last one, because something something constructors. It'd be easier just to move wall barrier(50, 350, 0); into a different scope.

Re: bgt, having trouble with classes, again er, crap.This is really my first time attempting to use classes. What would be the ideal way to set and store the walls then?Thanks for your reply.

Re: bgt, having trouble with classes, again
Re: bgt, having trouble with classes, again
That was what your current code does.What you want to do is more like this:for(uint i=0; i<wall_num; i++) {wall barrier(random(0, 100), random(0, 100), random(0, 100));walls.insert_last(barrier);}Assuming that you have an array of walls, which needs to take handles, like so:wall@[] walls;Also, if BGT complains about "no default constructor", just add the line "wall() {}" to the wall class.

Re: bgt, having trouble with classes, again
Re: bgt, having trouble with classes, again I mostly understand what your saying, but beyond this my head exploded:create a local variable called barrier, that is a wall with random parameters.delete barrier, since this iteration of hte loop is complete.increment i.repeat the last 4 lines until i is 6500 (Incidentally, that is a lot of objects and the sound pool will probably explode.)delete i, since the loop is complete.Create a local wall variable.I suspect all of this will be done in a forloop, but unfortunately my head explodes every time I attempt to put it into code.
