Specific sprite movement
-
I made some changes to make it easer to understand but this is what I’m at so far
It sucks to get stuck in making a game from so early on lol
Planespeed = 10 Pr=0 Planeimg = loadimage(“plane”) Plane=createsprite() Setspriteimage(plane,planeimg) Setspritelocation(plane,gwidth()/2,gheight()/2) Setspritesvale(plane,{2,2}) Loop Clear(skyblue) C=controls(0) If (atan2(c.lx,c.ly)) < pr then Pr-=5 Endif If (atan2(c.lx,c.ly)) > pr then Pr+=5 Endif Setspriterotation(plane,Pr) Drawsprites() Update() Repeat -
I’m trying to make a game like Man vs. Missiles if that helps.

You’ll probably want a ’desiredAngle’, ’currentAngle’, and ’turnspeed’ variables for your plane. It shouldn’t be too crazy hard to get it turning the right way. I bet there’s a smart-ass one-line trick that programmers know, but don’t worry if you figure out a dumb long clumsy way - as long as it works :)

I don’t care if it’s 100 lines I just want it to work Lol. I’ll check that link out later today Almost all websites are blocked on my phone (thankfully not fuze arena) and my dad uses the computer for work all day so I just have to wait until he’s done. :)

Ok perfect all give it a go thanks so much
-
@DomDom Could you please just explain the code a little bit, and especially the use of the dot product?
I know it’s something I was taught in school, but it’s all a bit hazy...

Thanks a lot! I have been wrestling with vectors these last few nights, and the dot product seems to actually be able to solve a few a my problems.
Great explanation!

Starting to have a game come along!!! Thanks for the help :)

That has a very "Time Pilot" feel
-
@pianofire That game hurts my hand. My high score is 137k. :P
-
@Jongjungbu Yeah me too. I can't remember my Hi-score but I was pretty good at it
-
@pianofire I normally wouldn't remember any score. But recently I played it on an arcade cabinet one of my bros built, and I had the "local" high score for a 2 days. Haha.
