How is the world divided in cells? Problems with getObjectsInRange()

By JimmyFake, with 7 replies.
Last reply by JimmyFake, almost 13 years ago:

I had some time, to try out what you posted danpost. My assumption was right, even though I may have expressed myself, incorrectly. For now the ObjectsInRange method works better for me, because an circular radius is fine for now, and the code is simpler. And thanks to GevaterTod, I do now know, how to use that command :) But if I want to adapt the area of the radius, because of some reasons that might appear in future, your advice would come in handy, danpost. Thank you both, again :D

You could set up an array to map the world. It could be of 'int', 'String' or 'char' type (guess it could even be of 'Class' type -- not that I would recomend it). This map could be used not only to create the initial background, but also to determine what is where during game play. Another possibility is to use color detection to determine what is where. This would involve breaking the color up into its primary color components and checking the values for certain ranges to distinguish between the different types of terrain (brown=mountain, blue=water, tan=dirt, green=grass

Hit twice

By TheStop, with 4 replies.
Last reply by danpost, almost 13 years ago:

Actually, what I was saying was that the boolean tracks whether it has been hit once or not. <Code Omitted>Just call 'checkHit();' from the 'act' method.

Variable construction of Objects

By JimmyFake, with 7 replies.
Last reply by danpost, almost 13 years ago:

If you want any insight into it, it involved working with the 'Class' API using the 'newInstance' method which will require some knowledge of working with exceptions. It would be something like the following: <Code Omitted>However, this would require passing classes instead of strings.
