Re: [Audyssey] bgt help

[Aaron Baker]

Hello,
This is an issue I've had to hack around before. The best way I've
found to fix it is to convert all of your objects to object handles.
item@[] lookup(string keyword)
It might be a bit of work, but its so much better to use handles
anyway that you won't regret it.
In fact, I would probably write the line
item@[]@ lookup(string keyword)
such that we are not only using an array of handles, but we're
returning a handle to the array itself.
You also really can't take proper advantage of inheritance with out
using handles.
If this is beyond your current knowledge of BGT, I suggest researching
handles, if not also inheritance. Handles are amazing things that will
probably make your game run faster, too!
Best,
Aaron

[Audyssey] VGStorm Presents Manamon, a new fully featured RPG!

[Aaron Baker]

VGStorm Presents Manamon, a new fully featured RPG!
I would like to welcome you to the world of Manamon!
Manamon is a turnbased roleplaying game in which you capture various
feral monsters you find around the world and use them to help you
complete the storyline.
It features experimental online gameplay which will allow you to trade
and battle your friends to determine which of you is the stronger
Manamon Tamer.

Storyline

In the world of Tangeria, children around ages 10 to 14 become Manamon
Tamers. A Manamon Tamer is someone who captures and befriends
creatures in the wild. The tamer will then battle with other Tamers in
order to gain more experience. Its a Manamon Tamer's job to collect
and train Manamon in hopes of becoming the Manamon Master, but the
road to become the master is never easy.
While traveling across the world, you will occasionally discover
stadiums. Stadiums are battle arenas with powerful leaders who will
put your Manamon to the test.
You must defeat seven of these leaders in order to gain admittance
into the Master's Stadium where you will battle the Manamon Master.
The Manamon Master is widely regarded as the strongest Manamon Tamer
in the land of Tangeria, and its for that title that you endeavor.
In the game, you will play as a brand new Manamon Tamer who hopes to
take on this Stadium Challenge.
That's your plan, at least. But when you discover an evil organization
bent on the typical goal of world domination, your plans to become the
Master might be interrupted somewhat.
Its a long way from 1 stadium to the next, so your bound to meet lots
of people and have many adventures along the way.
Who knows what your Manamon adventure may bring!

Features

158 Manamon Creatures to discover, capture, and fight against.
Over 200 different attacks these Manamon can learn.
A large world in which to immerse yourself.
A complex turn based battle system.
A unique system of straight forward navigation which was first
introduced in the game Paladin of the Sky and was improved upon in
Manamon.
Lots of items for you to find and use in order to help yourself during
your journey.
Many types of equipment you can give your Manamon to make them stronger.
Several minigames for you to play throughout your adventure.
Creative sound design making all of the cities, caves, and battles come alive.
An experimental online system which will allow you to battle and trade
with your friends.
An online battle recorder which allows you to relive noteworthy battles.
A few postgame surprises.
Self voicing using SAPI 5 compatible voices.
Demo limitations

Manamon is a shareware product, meaning you'll have to pay in order to
experience the full feature set and storyline.
Manamon does offer a generous demo mode which will allow you to reach
the second stadium leader.
Apart from all online functionality being disabled, you can play the
entire game unrestricted up until this point.

Getting the Game

You can download Manamon here
http://www.vgstorm.com/manamon/manamon_installer.exe
You can buy the game for forty U.S. dollars here
http://www.vgstorm.com/order.php
We hope you enjoy the game!

Re: [Audyssey] bgt operator overloading question

[Aaron Baker]

Hi,
I don't really like to do code handouts. It isn't conducive to good
learning. Still, I'm vaguely interested in this since I myself have
not ever sorted strings alphabetically, so I will write something up
here.
This implementation may have errors. I tested it on six items with
various first letters and it worked great, but I may have not
accounted for some edge cases, who knows.
Here is the opCmp method you should use.
int opCmp(players_items@ other)
{
// Lowercase both strings so that uppercase lettered items do not
appear before lowercased ones.
string other_name=string_to_lower_case(other.name);
string original_name=string_to_lower_case(name);
// Now simply do comparisons as we would do on ints. Keep in mind this
deceptively simple action will take much longer than integer
comparison.
if(original_name>other_name)
return 1;
else if(original_name<other_name)
return -1;
else
return 0;
}
Best,
Aaron

Re: [Audyssey] bgt operator overloading question

[Aaron Baker]

opCmp wants you to return a positive number if the source object is
greater than the parameter passed, 0 if they are equal, and -1 if the
source object is less than the parameter.
You can use the less than and greater than operator on strings, so the
rest should be obvious. One not so obvious complication is that this
sort technique is case sensative, so make sure to unify the case by
either uppercasing or lowercasing all characters.
Best,
Aaron

Re: [Audyssey] bgt operator overloading question

[Aaron Baker]

Hello,
Did you actually try it? I know that that can make the difference
between runtime error and no runtime error. I thought it was kind of
odd too, but it is usually bad practice to pass an object by value
anyway. If you're worried about the object changing, you might be able
to write it as "const stat@ other".
I really think that is the problem.
This code gives me a runtime error:
"
class stat
{
int percent;
int opCmp(stat other)
{
return percent-other.percent;
}
}
stat[] stats;
void main()
{
stats.sort_descending();
}
"

And this code doesn't:
"
class stat
{
int percent;
int opCmp(stat@ other)
{
return percent-other.percent;
}
}
stat[] stats;
void main()
{
stats.sort_descending();
}
"
Best,
Aaron

Re: [Audyssey] bgt operator overloading question

[Aaron Baker]

Hey John,
Try switching your parameter from "stat other" to "stat@ other".
I think opCmp wants a handle (by reference), not a by value object.

Re: [Audyssey] the gate recording, trying to beat the grey lady.

[Aaron Baker]

Hello!
Right, so I had a listen.
Keep in mind that as long as you are in the air, you can't be hurt by
her, not unless you land on top of her so as soon as you land, unless
you are far enough away to fire your bow, keep jumping. You want to
usually jump as soon as you land, so maybe even pound your up arrow if
you like. You can jump almost as soon as you land.
Lucas has done a recording of the Gray Lady you can find at the following link:
http://forum.audiogames.net/viewtopic.php?id=17228
As for you jumping right into her at the beginning, just waiting
another split second would avoid that.
Never jump only once though, because by time you can fire she will hit
you. Always jump a minimum of two times away from her. You are doing
pretty well on the other two levels though, so hopefully when you get
past this boss you will be prepared for the next few levels.
Best,
Aaron

Re: [Audyssey] the gate recording, trying to beat the grey lady.

[Aaron Baker]

Hello!
I have done a recording of me defeating the Gray Lady and explaining
how I did it and the strategy behind the boss battle.
Here is the link to the MP3.
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/58851737/gray_lady.mp3
I've turned the gain up on the mic so I could be heard over the game,
and my voice can only be heard on the left.
I hope this helps people stuck on the Gray Lady!

Aaron

[Audyssey] New horror and adventure sidescroller, The gate!

[Aaron Baker]

Greetings gamers!
Just in time for the Halloween season, VGStorm is proud to present a
new adventure sidescroller, The Gate!
Introduction
In a time when people were being killed for parcels of land,
decorations, titles,
wealth, honor and power, a small village was suffering from something
much more mysterious.
Many people were dying, mostly through strange bouts or sequences of
illness, sometimes
even from unknown causes. In the end, with no possible alternative
explanation, it
was officially declared a plague. For Patrick, a simple trip to the
Physician's house
to try and save his dying mother goes horribly wrong when he is knocked from his
horse by an unknown entity, and awakes to find himself imprisoned in a
hellish dungeon.
You must guide him to safety so that he can return home safely and
report his findings.
Features
Ten levels with over 30 enemies and 5 bosses, providing hours of gameplay.
High quality sound effects and adaptive music.
Fully voiced by professional actors.
Plenty of in-game help.
Five difficulties and two modes of gameplay.
Demo limitations
The demo allows you to complete the three shortest levels in the game,
as well as battle the first boss. Save files from the demo are 100
percent compatible with the registered copy, so you can resume right
where you left off after purchasing.
Pricing
The game normally costs 34.95 US dollars to purchase.
However, from release to the end of November, you can pick up the game
for 29.95 US Dollars.
I hope you enjoy The Gate!

Re: [Audyssey] drugs in psycho strike

[Aaron Baker]

You can use drugs the same way as any other item in Psycho Strike,
like the Medkits.
Go to the Casino to collect Fortimine, Burlium, and Bridine.
Either focus the item with the tab and shift ab keys and press enter,
or if you want to do it from the base, select manage items use items.
Select the character with the drugs, arrow to the drugs and press
enter.
Hope that helps!

Re: [Audyssey] A Couple Questions Regarding Psycho Strike

[Aaron Baker]

Hello,
You can, in addition to better shields, get better weapons as your
level increases. For example, where pistols are harder to get early
on, they are easy to get at level ten. Just keep playing and you
should be able to get better and better weaponry. Having the ai help
you out by rescuing a prisoner helps a lot, too!
Regards,
Aaron

 Hi, Kelly.
 1.  The prisoners are freed when you break down the door and they run back
 to your base.  You don't get to use them until you return to base.
 For the vault, you hear breaking glass for a while while you're pounding on
 the door and then it completely shatters.  There's an announcement when you
 get the cash but it's impossible to hear over all the other noises.
 2.  The shieleds you can buy go up when your level does.  So, the higher
 your level, the higher the cost of the shield and the higher its defensive
 level.

 3.  I think you have to kill the gunshop owner in the weapons shop or kill
 cops in other places.  I'm not completely sure about this one.  I only got
 weapons when I let the computer control my main character.
 HTH,
 Christina

 Subject: [Audyssey] A Couple Questions Regarding Psycho Strike

 Hi,

 I started playing Psycho Strike today, and ended up purchasing it. It works

 great on my Windows 7 64-bit machine, but contrary to the manual, I
 couldn't

 get it to run on my XP system. (I get a message saying This program is not

 a Win32-compatible program, or something to that effect.) Other than that,

 it's a lot of fun, but I have a few questions about the gameplay.

 1. Presumably, you have to release prisoners before you can recruit any
 other characters. As far as I can tell, I've broken down some doors, but am

 not told if anyone has been set free. Is there a way to know if anyone has
 been released? Same thing with the bank vaults. I'll go up to one and take
 out my frustrations on it until glass begins breaking. Do I have to keep
 hitting it before I can get the cash, or do I automatically get it when the

 glass breaks?

 2. I've noticed that in the black market there's a defensive shield.
 However, the price keeps changing, and I can't seem to buy it even if I
 have

 the right amount of cash. As an example, I was first told it would cost 149

 cash. I managed to get up to 160 cash or something like that, but when I
 went to buy the shield, it said it was now available with an increased
 defensive level for 400 cash. Obviously, I now can't get it. Is this a bug
 with the game, or do you have to be very precise as far as cash goes?

 3. Where can I find guns to use the pistol cartridges? I've been in the
 Weapons shop, but usually keep getting either a long knife or pistol
 cartridge, but no actual pistol.

 Thanks.

 Yours Sincerely,

Re: [Audyssey] A Couple Questions Regarding Psycho Strike

Steel shield is the only armor available.
If there were more, they would appear in the black market over time.

 Subject: [Audyssey] A Couple Questions Regarding Psycho Strike

 Hi,

 I started playing Psycho Strike today, and ended up purchasing it. It
 works

 great on my Windows 7 64-bit machine, but contrary to the manual, I
 couldn't

 get it to run on my XP system. (I get a message saying This program is
 not

 a Win32-compatible program, or something to that effect.) Other than
 that,

 it's a lot of fun, but I have a few questions about the gameplay.

 1. Presumably, you have to release prisoners before you can recruit any
 other characters. As far as I can tell, I've broken down some doors, but
 am

 not told if anyone has been set free. Is there a way to know if anyone
 has
 been released? Same thing with the bank vaults. I'll go up to one and
 take
 out my frustrations on it until glass begins breaking. Do I have to keep
 hitting it before I can get the cash, or do I automatically get it when
 the

 glass breaks?

 2. I've noticed that in the black market there's a defensive shield.
 However, the price keeps changing, and I can't seem to buy it even if I
 have

 the right amount of cash. As an example, I was first told it would cost
 149

 cash. I managed to get up to 160 cash or something like that, but when I
 went to buy the shield, it said it was now available with an increased
 defensive level for 400 cash. Obviously, I now can't get it. Is this a
 bug
 with the game, or do you have to be very precise as far as cash goes?

 3. Where can I find guns to use the pistol cartridges? I've been in the
 Weapons shop, but usually keep getting either a long knife or pistol
 cartridge, but no actual pistol.

 Thanks.

Hello Ron,
You can technically get a pistol in the demo, but it isn't as easy as
when you are a higher level. Try raising your character to around
level 5 and visiting the weapon shop. If you are lucky, you may be
able to kill the guy with a pistol and he will drop it.

Re: [Audyssey] Problem With Psycho Strike

Hello,
Alt F4 should have worked unless you are using one of those new
computers that blocks it.
P is the key to pause the game. From there, you can hit return to main
menu. This will not save if you have not saved. The only other way out
of the mission is obviously to leave with shift enter on the exit
point.

 I tried q, the escape key, and alt+f4 all to no success. The game

Re: [Audyssey] psycho strike some observations

[Aaron Baker]

There is an age warning in both the release posts, as well as a
warning on the website.
Jeremy, A game is a game. If an individual is old enough to desern
fantasy and reality, than they should be able to play Psycho Strike
for the harmless game it is.
You musn't believe that it was a quick, lighthearted decision to
create this game. At least for me, the decision was made after much
thought and contemplation. If it is irresponsible to release this
game, than most modern video game developers for XBox and Playstation
are extremely irresponsible.

 Can I also point out that the irresponsible thing would be for a parent
 to actually purchase this game for a minor? Because, let's be realistic
 here. Lots of kids live this kind of life. They know what violence is.
 And most children don't have the funds to buy a $25 game without some
 outside help. The outside help would, in essence, be the negligent party
 here, not the developers.

 Furthermore, I like to imagine, although I'm sure it's inaccurate, that
 this game is kind of a screw you to polite society and political
 correctness.

 Subject: [Audyssey] psycho strike some observations


 So, I read the documentation, and I've played one game.  Admittedly,
 that's a small data sample, but I want to make the following
 observations:

 1.  The game sound design and the game play are very nice.  The hot
 keys are for the most part very intuitive, and the movement and menu
 systems all work as expected.  Breaking the game into distinct zones
 that you get to from a menu and then sidescroll through made a lot of
 sense and avoided some obvious navigational issues.  Some auditory
 cues could have been perhaps a little more pronounced for my taste,
 but overall, I got it.


 2.  I found the character motivation very flimsy.  First off, just
 deciding to homicidally kill everyone at a party as my first action in
 a criminal career in which I want to amass a gang and get money and
 better weapons didn't click for me.  Good crime bosses avoid
 entanglements with the police and such situations.  Further, mass
 murderers of the type depicted in the first sequence aren't your buddy
 film types imo.


 3.  On a moral ground, I have severe issues with the character
 motivation, the game scoring, and the presentation of violence.

 The character motivation as character motivation was discussed above,
 but giving a player a choice of either body count or cash as a means
 of keeping score struck me as sort of sick.  Further, I have a hard
 time justifying the developer's decision to release a game with this
 sort of content that can be downloaded directly and played at least as
 a demo, with no blocks in place to keep minors from playing it. All
 such blocks have issues, there's no good way to police such issues,
 but given that the first sequence is the murder of ten defenseless
 people for no better reason than you decided to strikes me a socially
 irresponsible.

 The game play is awesome, the game design has a lot of good points,
 but minus several million for good taste and well-thought out
 character motivations.  This game could have been improved immensely
 merely by introducing more motivation.  You're a poor caterer who's
 about to lose their job, be turned out on the streets and a mysterious
 man drives up to you, he offers to set you up in comfort if you kill a
 certain man at the party.  Unfortunatley, he does not have any way of
 identifying the man.  While still morally reprehensible, this at least
 gives the player some reason to be doing this.  Further, if more
 patrons have some means of fighting back other than police, then it
 might be less objectionable to me.  I play violent games: every rpg,
 mud, etc is essentially no different in terms of raw violence.
 However, basing a game on killing people who are screaming don't hurt
 me strikes me, as I said before, as completely irresponsible.

 Take care,

 Jeremy

matter. Although I disaggree, and was slightly offended, I understand
you at the same time.
I do hope you enjoy Paladin, because I think you will appreciate some
scenes and a particular character in the game after this discussion.

On 4/29/15, Jeremy Brown tyr...@gmail.com wrote:
 First, to all of you that have responded thus far, thanks for actually
 responding.

 I'm going to address the issues in one mail to try and save time and space.


 As to Charles' comments that criminals are by definition anti-social
 and the name of the game basically implies what to expect, agreed on
 both counts.  However, choosing to make a psychopathic killer the hero
 or main character of a game is a game developer decision.  My choice
 as a consumer is to vote for the game or not by either buying it or
 not.  Gangsters don't interest me as a gamer, so I doubt that this
 particular concept would have intrigued me even if the handling had
 been different.

 In response to some of Dark's points:

 RE: minors and their definition

 Besides, what is exactly a miner seems pretty debatable, hay I was
 watching the alien filmes and nightmare on elm street when i was 10 years
 old, not to mention playing games like mortal combat and moonstone, and I
 was quite fine with the idea that these were games and the difference
 between playing a game where I slice someone up with a big nasty blade and
 doing the same in reality, likewise violence in and of itself never did, or
 indeed never does bother me for just being bloody or graphic.

 Back to Jeremy:

 I was six when I saw the first Alien film.  I don't think it
 psychologically scarred me for life; that said, I don't think it was
 responsible of my older brother who had charge of me at the time to
 allow it.  One does not negate the other.  Just because minor is
 somewhat fluid, saying well people see this all the time does not
 relieve the social responsibility of the producer.

 RE: warning message
 In the game's description on the Vgstorm website there is the message:

 Back to Jeremy:
 Agreed, and I applaud the developers for including this warning.
 Further, I agree that there's no good system for keeping minors from
 buying such a game, however, there are a couple of systems that would
 be more effective than the current one.  Making the game only
 purchasable with a credit card for instance will exclude many many
 minors.  Itm ight exclude legitimate customers with bad credit as
 well, but this is the sort of decision one must make.

 Many games in the past have used a dual system of printed material
 that is mailed to a consumer in addition to the game disk or download.
 Such a mailing might get  the attention of parents.

 Neither of these options is a perfect solution, and I don't expect
 VGStorm to use either.  I'm merely pointing out that ignoring the
 problem completely and going with a warning label and good intentions
 is not the only way to handle such problems.

 RE: Violence and motivation (This one responds to Dark and Desree)
 Jeremy's comments here:
 I frankly have to just disagree with you on this one Dark.  I just
 can't see a psychopathic criminal who kills people at a party to start
 their career as a person who would form a gang.  First off, for that
 person to be at that party they have to have been invited.  This
 implies a certain amount of familiarity or intimacy with at least one
 party goer.  Further, as we both agreed, avoiding criminal
 entanglement with authorities is the best way to be a successful
 criminal.

 As to the way the violence is presented, I did not get any bafoon
 comedy violence vibe.  Further, it doesn't strike me as a screw you to
 society politically correct or not.  It strikes me as an excuse to
 glorify anti-social behavior in the name of providing the blind
 community with this style of game.

 Now, first off, I am not opposed to graphic violence as such.
 However, I think that the underlying story and motivations for this
 game needed a severe rethink.  It doesn't work for me on a hey, this
 gives me an excuse level, nor on the I have to do this to accomplish
 this goal level.

 That said, I'm glad to see developers trying games that are not mere
 board games nor polite society games.  However, this game could have
 involved the criminal element without being anywhere as graphic nor
 conflicted in a story sense.

 Finally, these observations are, my own opinion.  I am fairly
 obviously in the minority here.  But, as a reasonably sensitive human
 being, and a parent, I find the approach to releasing the game in
 terms of just releasing it without any brakes and the chosen content
 objectionable.  However, I wish VGStorm the greatest of luck with its
 other titles, and I hope to see other examples of their games using
 these mechanics but with a more well-thought out character motivator
 and a less offensive way of tracking

other thing it could be is a 32 bit issue. I don't think it's a 32 bit
application though. Come to think of it, I think one of the testers
had a 32 bit windows 7 machine.
Still, it looks likely that we will be able to release a patch for the XP users.
Best,
Aaron

 Hi Dark,

 Well, as it so happens I have an older XP laptop I just recently
 refurbished which I can try the game out on. I'll let you and everyone
 else know my experience when I get a chance to try the game on it. I
 suspect it has nothing to do with XP but some weird error where the
 operating system isn't recognizing the program as a 32-bit program for
 some strange reason.

 Cheers!

 I really hope this gets fixed sinse I don't want to miss out on the game.

Re: [Audyssey] Paladin of the sky: after the main game

Hello Tobias,
The beyond ending is the only benefit to getting all treasures. There
is a separate benefit for getting all galactic dust, but I won't spoil

Regardless of your treasure status, however, there is indeed a new

 You're looking for a staircase leading up. Somewhere on the first floor
 you'll find a teleporter that, if you step in it, warps you back to the
 regular gaming facility. So instead walk right past it until you hear the
 staircase noise. Go up and take the south teleporter. The others will warp
 you back down to the first floor.

Re: [Audyssey] clear call stack in bgt

[Aaron Baker]

Keep in mind, it may be hard to add saving and reloading if you rely
too heavily on the callstack.
Consider this.
void first_level()
{
second_level();
}
void second_level()
{
third_level();
}
void third_level()
{
fourth_level();
}
void fourth_level()
{

}
That is of course possible to save, provided you never return from a
level in order to return the player to a previous level.
Consider this, superior, method.

int id=0;\
void main()
{
while(true)// This loop runs forever
{
switch(id)
{
case 0:
first_level();
break;
case 1:
second_level();
break;
case 2:
third_level();
break;

}
if(id==-1)
exit();// Or you could return to the main menu if you like.
}
}
void first_level()
{
id=1;
}
void second_level()
{
id=2;
}
void third_level()
{
id=-1;
}
// In this way, saving becomes pretty easy and the callstack is never very high.
I like using classes for stages to be honest, their very flexible. You
definitely don't have to, though.
Hope I was at least some help.

 Subject: Re: [Audyssey] clear call stack in bgt

 Hi John,

 I will answer your questions as best I can but I think you have some
 confusion over what the call stack is, how it works, and therefore may
 be worrying about nothing.

 First, as to your question there is no way to kill the stack with out
 killing the entire program. If your function that clears the stack
 returns there would essentially be nothing left in memory to return to
 resulting in a crash. Quite frankly put since the stack holds the
 memory address of every function and variable in your program if you
 kill the stack you might as well kill the entire program since there
 are essentially no functions and variables in memory to access.

 Second, as for creating the size of the call stack don't worry about
 it too much. If you are paranoid about this all you have to do is some
 very memory efficient coding such as instead of using a lot of global
 variables pass information by reference to functions and use local
 variables as often as possible. Every time a function returns the
 function itself is released from the stack, and any variables etc
 contained there in are also removed freeing up more memory on the
 stack for more functions and variables.

 I don't honestly see you having a serious stack overflow here, because
 BGT seems to have a reasonably large enough call stack for any game
 you can conceive of. Its not about how many functions you have in the
 program or how many times you call them. As I said every time a
 function returns the function is removed from the stack along with any
 pointers, objects, and variables it may contain in the local scope so
 its not like that stuff remains in memory forever. Sooner or later it
 will get removed from the stack making room for something else.

 That said, using loops like a while loop is more memory efficient than
 using recursion. In other words if you need to perform the same action
 multiple times instead of simply calling the same function over and
 over again, (recursion,) put it in a loop so that the function only
 gets called when a certain state is true, and if not the loop exits
 and the function can be removed from the stack.

 Cheers!

  pretty sure my major project is going to go over 1 eventually,

 what is done as every objective that is completed level, etc the

 something gets maxed, ie if you die some values may not be
 cleared  till program restarts and then you may loose some more stuff.
 Right now various little issues like that are happening.

very memory efficient coding such as instead of using a lot of global
variables pass information by reference to functions and use local
variables as often as possible. Every time a function returns the
function itself is released from the stack, and any variables etc
contained there in are also removed freeing up more memory on the
stack for more functions and variables.

I don't honestly see you having a serious stack overflow here, because
BGT seems to have a reasonably large enough call stack for any game
you can conceive of. Its not about how many functions you have in the
program or how many times you call them. As I said every time a
function returns the function is removed from the stack along with any
pointers, objects, and variables it may contain in the local scope so
its not like that stuff remains in memory forever. Sooner or later it
will get removed from the stack making room for something else.

That said, using loops like a while loop is more memory efficient than
using recursion. In other words if you need to perform the same action
multiple times instead of simply calling the same function over and
over again, (recursion,) put it in a loop so that the function only
gets called when a certain state is true, and if not the loop exits
and the function can be removed from the stack.

Cheers!

Re: [Audyssey] clear call stack in bgt

[Aaron Baker]

It sounds like you may be able to return values  from your functions
instead of calling them on top of each other. It is hard to understand
based on what info you gave me though.

On 8/30/14, john jpcarnemo...@gmail.com wrote:
 Essentially I have a bunch of menu functions which call each other
 repeatedly, every time the player selects an option. I have a function for
 checking keys that is generic to all menus, as well as a function which
 calls the correct menus select
 options based on variables. The basic idea is that whenever the player is in
 a menu, there's a global variable that keeps track of that menu's reference
 number. Whenever the player presses enter on an option, a function processes
 that variable and
 calls the select function for the correct menu, which then passes execution
 to the next menu. I believe that each menu change is calling about 5
 functions.
 Sorry if my explanation is confusing; I'm having a surprising amount of
 difficulty coming up with a way to explain it.

 Hi, can you explain more of what you are trying to do?
 It is possible you can avoid your repeititious function calls with
 loops, return values, global variables or parameters.
 There is no way to increase or clear the call stack. You couldn't
 clear the call stack, because then what happens if the function which
 does this returns?
 BGT wouldn't know what to return you to, because you've killed the call
 stack.
 The call stack basically records everything.

I doubt I'll do joystick support, primarily because I don't have one.

[Audyssey] Paladin of the Sky

[Aaron Baker]

VGStorm.com is proud to present,
Paladin of the Sky!
Paladin of the Sky is an audio game in the style of popular console
roleplaying games.
The game contains over fifteen dungeons and twenty bosses. It features
hours of fun
maps to explore, as well as an in depth storyline.
Paladin of the Sky was designed with console Japonese roleplaying games from the
1980s, 1990s and early 2000s in mind. The game also takes a new look
on casting spells
in a turn based roleplaying setting.

Storyline:

The storyline of Paladin of the Sky takes place in a magical and
futuristic world.
For many years, the strongest lifeforms on earth, the humans and the
dragons, were
at odds. In 2037, the humans waged out right war on the dragons. The
war lasted for
six months, the humans gaining the upper hand with their superior technology. By
the end of the war, dragons were an extinct species.
In this universe, dragons could shape shift into human form.
Sometimes, in this form,
a human and dragon would fall in love and have dragon halfling
children. After the
war ended, the humans sought to find and kill all of the human dragon halflings.
The story follows the journey of Ross Myres to safety, in a rather
unusual way. Ross
bords a ship known as the Paladin, destined for the distant planet
known as Xopolis.
On this planet, the environs are too intense for the humans to handle,
however the
conditions are far from difficult for dragon human halflings.

Setting:

The game largely takes place on bored the Paladin space ship. The
space ship is enormous,
perhaps more so than even its crew know.

Features:

Over fifteen dungeons to explore.
Over twenty bosses to challenge you in various ways.
An in depth storyline.
A rich soundtrack with over one hundred and twenty tracks.
A unique system for navigation which puts the control in your hands
like never before.
Two difficulty settings, normal and hard.
A post game chapter of sorts which offers five more dungeons and seven
more intense bosses.

Demo Limitations:

Paladin of the Sky is shareware. The demo offers you the first three
dungeons and the first two bosses in the game.
You can not access the hard difficulty setting, nor can you obtain
promotional gifts from the server.

Getting the game:

You can get the game here
http://www.vgstorm.com/cod/pots/paladin_installer.exe
You can buy the game for thirty U.S. dollars here
http://www.vgstorm.com/order.php
Enjoy the game!
