C++ :: Pacman Game - Move Smiley In Code Automatically And Stop Screen Flickering?
Dec 26, 2013So far I have managed to write the code for a simple game (resembling to "Pacman") :P. Now what I want is to move the smiley in the upper left-hand corner of the map "automatically" when the program runs and also want it to change it's direction to up or down when it touches the wall.
Also the screen is flickering when the program runs (due to re-printing the whole array?). I want to stop this flicker. Somebody suggested to use 'gotoxy' function.
Here's my code :
#include <iostream>
#include <conio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
using namespace std;
void display (char array [10][25] , int row , int column) {

C++ :: Getting Multiple Objects To Move Randomly At A Designated Number Of Intervals
Jan 9, 2015I have a piece of code which gets multiple objects to move randomly at a designated number of intervals. I want to create a function which calculates the distance between each pair of points after that number of steps. so the distance between object 1 and object 2, object 1 and object 3, ..., object 1 and object N. then object 2 and object 3, object 2 and object 4, ..., object 2 and object N. then then object 3 and object 4, object 3 and object 5, ..., object 3 and object N and so on until the distance between all the pairs of points have been calculated.

C :: Force Move In Checkers Game
Dec 6, 2013I am doing a checkers program in C and were not allowed to use standard C99. Things are going relatively well so far. I have 2d array that acts as a matrix for my board and have ways to check if a space is empty and if it is occupied by a specific players chip.
Right now I have a giant messy method that I will split up sooner or later but Im just trying to understand and build the logic. It looks like this:
Code:
void isValidMove(int origin, int dest, int player) {
int rowDiff = abs(origin%8 - dest%8);
int possibleMoveLeftUp = origin - 9;
int possibleMoveLeftDown = origin + 9;
int possibleMoveRightUp = origin - 7;
[Code] ....
So although its not pretty i think the logic is sound. I can tell whether or not a player is attempting to make a move or a jump. I haven't implemented make_move() yet but thats no problems. My biggest deal is that I need to find a way to tell the user he has to jump if its available. I feel like this is a very difficult task for me to grasp and is more about algorithm logic and math then the C language which is what the course is for.
So, how I could loop through all of a specific players chips and see if that player has an available jump. Also if he does then the jump has to be taken and then checked again as if there is another legal jump then it needs to be taken as well until their are no jumps left. Of course there could be 2 routes available, but I think I could deal with that if I just could come up with a reasonable way of checking....
C++ :: How To Move A Ball Continuously In 2D Scrolling Game
Dec 29, 2013The situation is , I have a ball which should move on a flat horizontal surface which i have created in a display of 800 x 400 . Right now!I am able to make it move left or right in direction using key inputs at a fixed speed.
But I want to make it move horizontally at a constant velocity without using keys. Like in copter game.
It should be able to move automatically , towards the right side.
Increment x position by speed variable does the trick but When I used it with keys I used to limit the movement like.
ball.x += ball.speed;
if(ball.x > 750)
ball.x = 750; // because my screen width is 800.
[URL] .... < this video will show what I really want to do with the ball
If you saw the game video in the link i gave, the ball kept moving with constant velocity. But it never went out of bound. What is keeping it from not getting out of display screen. Instead! its moving continuously... but stays almost at the center of screen. How?
C/C++ :: Game Of Fifteen - Swap Move Not Showing On Screen

I have implemented the swap> I know the swap takes place[using GDB] but the swap does not show on the screen even if GDB says it has taken place. I am getting no errors from the move function so I know that something is taking place. I was thinking that the problem may be in the draw function but it looks okay to me. I have looked at this over and over but I don't know why the draw is not printing the move to the screen.

C++ :: Logic Error - Maze Not Displaying
Jan 24, 2014So I have a program where I solve a maze using stacks. So my display_maze function take two parameters and displays the maze according to where the x coordinate and y coordinate are.
I have an error during my move function, as my maze doesn't display for some reason
void Player::player_move() {
Stack stack;
Maze maze;
Lock taken;
// Monster monster;
stack.push_values();

It should be displaying, because after debugging I discovered the problem isn't with the display_maze function.

C++ :: Find Area Of Room In A Given Square Maze
Apr 1, 2013Area of the room. Your task is to write a program that will find the area of room in a given square maze.
Note. Use recursion for solving this problem.
Input:
First line contains only one number N (3 <= N <= 10).The number that describes the size of the square maze.
On the next N lines maze itself is inputed ('.' - empty cell,'*' - wall).
And the last line contains two numbers - the row and column of the cell in the room those area you need to find.It is guaranteed that given cell is empty and that the maze is surrounded by walls on all sides.
Output:
Output only one number - total amount of empty cells in the selected room.

C++ :: Shortest Path Maze Solver Algorithm
Mar 26, 2014I'm working on a maze solving program. So far I got the program to solve a maze using the recursive backtracking algorithm. I represent the maze as vector<vector<Square>> where Square is an enum that contains the kind of square (empty, wall, etc.). I use a class Point that contains 2 ints which are used for subscripting the vector of vectors. I have a Point begin and Point end. Now I want the program to solve the maze using the shortest path. I can either use the A* algorithm, Dijkstra's algorithm, or the breadth first search algorithm.

Due to the nature of recursive algoirthms, he jumps instead of moving the way back from the deadend one by one... The only solutions I could think of are way overloaded...
C/C++ :: Reading From File To Construct A Pointer Based Maze?
Nov 29, 2014I'm trying to read a "pointer-based" maze .txt. The first letter in each row corresponds to the room letter...then the letters that follow are North node, East node, South node, and West node respectively. The asterisk indicates an empty room or not a valid option.
Here is what I have come up with, what is happening is after the file is parsed by read_maze it is calling my is_empty function indicating that there is no maze because it doesn't go into the else statement here.
I've attached a sample input file:
maze.txt (130bytes)
Number of downloads: 19
We can't assume the rooms will be in order alphabetically A - Z, We are expecting a maximum of 12 rooms and there is a space between each letter or asterisk.

inStream.open(FileName.c_str());

C++ :: Game Design Practice For Accessing Container Of Game Objects
Dec 21, 2014I'm working on my first video game. So far I have a few classes in the game starting with the Game class which includes a list of GameObjects (another class). There are several classes that inherit from GameObjects used to implement things like bullets, explosions, various enemy types, etc.
The game essentially iterates through the list of GameObjects to update/render them. I would like to provide access to the Game's list of GameObjects inside another class (like the Bullet class) so I can put new objects on the list. For example, when a bullet hits, I want to add an explosion to the Game's GameObject list it can be updated/rendered.
How this should be setup? I was considering adding a pointer to the Game or GameObject list to the GameObject class (and methods to access it), but I was wondering if there is a better way to set this up?

C++ :: How To Iterate Through A For Loop Randomly
Apr 5, 2013So I have a vector that I want to iterate through randomly, and by random I mean that each element is only accessed once but I don't want to shuffle the vector because the vector elements are large. So I want this functionality:
std::vector<SomeLargeObjectWithoutACopyConstructor> myvec;
// ...fill myvec
std::random_shuffle(myvec.begin(),myvec.end());
for (auto& value : myvec)
{
// do stuff
}
Only I don't want to do this because the object type has no copy constructor and is large, so I don't want to shuffle the vector, just the iteration path. Is there a simple and efficient way of iterating randomly through a vector while ensuring that each object is only accessed once?
