void create_map(){
int x = 0;
int y = 0;
while (y >= 15) {
game_map[x][y].pos_x = x * tile_size;
game_map[x][y].pos_y = y * tile_size;
Objective of the code: to loop through all tiles in the game, setting their X and Y coordinates.
It just doesn't do anything at all. No error message.
Basically I have an tile class with the following variables: x, y, texture, and solid. I have created an array called tile MAP[map_tiles_x][map_tiles_y]. The object of the following snip-it of code is to loop through all of the tiles in the map placing their default values in each. For some reason this code does not work as planned, but in theory shouldn't it? I cannot see why it doesn't work. (BTW I do plan on open sourcing this map editor.
void init_map(){
for (int tile_y; tile_y < map_tiles_y; tile_y++){
for (int tile_x; tile_x < map_tiles_x; tile_x++){
MAP[tile_x][tile_y].x = tile_x * tile_size;
MAP[tile_x][tile_y].y = tile_y * tile_size;
MAP[tile_x][tile_y].solid = false;
std::cout << MAP[tile_x][tile_y].x << ", " << MAP[tile_x][tile_y].y;
} }
I should also add the effect of the code. Basically it only sets the default coordinates for the first object :/.
I'm wanting to create an image, all I need is to be able to set RGB values and X-Y coordinates, I'm not wanting to read or manipulate images. Any easy to use library or another simple method of doing this?

View 2 Replies View Relatedimagine you have a world class. Than you have a tile class. Now, in the world class is a array with a lot of tiles and I want to initialize them with my imagination(For example I want a grass floor). But how I can do this, the array can only be create with the standard constructor. But it would be stupid and not very fast, that the tiles are first initialized with the standard constructor and than overridden to build the world. Whats the best way to initialize such a array ?

My thoughts are:
1. Find out how to make a program that will determine x, y coordinates of mouseclicks, and then use software to use macros to change information.
2. Build a program that will complete a single process by repeating set mouse clicks and keystrokes.
We recieve HUGE transfers from a warehouse across the country, and have to change the first character of the name of bin locations - and after a few pages it gets VERY tedious.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI have been working on a program to read in a tab deliminated text file of xyz coordinates of atoms/particles and store the values in three seperate arrays. This is my code so far:

void fileinput(FILE *ifp) {
int N, column, atom;
int c;

I am writing a program which creates a set of coordinates that when plotted will reveal a syastro crescent moon character. If you imagine plotting a crescent moon as two circles with different radius, where the overlap will create the shape. The problem I am having is how to just plot where they overlap ( ie the crescent moon part) and no the rest of the circles. How can I impose a boundary to stop the program creating coordinates I dont want. My first attempt is an if else loop.
View 1 Replies View RelatedSo I'm doing this problem where the user will input a number that will be factored until the number is 1, 2 people will play this game and they will take turns entering a number that the initial number(named gameN) will be divided by until it is 1. Whoever get it to 1 wins. My problem is I'm not really sure how to do this, I'm pretty new to programming so besides some if statements and a loop, the problem shouldn't require too much to write. Some rules for the game are, the number entered to factor the gameN cant be less than 2, and has to divide evenly into gameN, which I have signifies with modulus. Here is where I'm at so far.
#include <stdio.h>
int main(){
int gameN;
int p1f;
int p2f;

So I am working on making a game. The first thing I did was make a window class. This correctly makes the window and displays it.
Now, I run my game loop and it just freezes the window and shows the Application has stopped working message box. I believe this is because the Window is not actually being updated.
My game loop however, looks like this.
bool run = true;
while(run) {
Window::Render();
if (Window::IsCloseRequested())

I have a simple game loop.
while(true) {
//round initialization stuff
while(true) {
//capture input, make pieces move,
}
}
I am faced with the decision of what is the best way of restarting the game. The problem is, the condition for restarting a game is very, very deep inside the game's logic. So returning returning... is not an option, or at least, it ain't gonna be pretty.
So one of my considerations is to use a goto label, like so:
while(true) {
//round initialization stuff
while(true) {
//capture input, make pieces move,
} restart_round:
}
This seems to be the cleanest solution, since it allows me to fully reset the 'state' of the round, by first having all the destructors(pertaining to the round's objects) called, and then the constructors and other initialisation stuff.
Are there any subtleties that I am missing regarding this solution?
I have a problem with implementing Shadow Mapping into a project I am working on. I am very much new to shaders and I have been given a Shadow Mapping shader to implement and understand. I have mostly got my head round the concept and the code but I can't figure out why its not working.
As I understand it the main steps to follow are;
1) Render the scene from the POV of the light - this is done in ShadowMap::SetUpDepthRender where the view and projection matrices are passed to the shader.
2) Render all objects in the scene - this creates a shadowmap (depth map) via the shader.
3) Reset the view and projection matrices to that of the camera - done in ShadowMap::SetUpSceneRender.
4) Render the scene objects once more appling the depth map to them via the second pass of the shader.
The problem Im having is that I have a stripe of light running diagonally across the screen. It passes through the point of the spotlight that I am mapping for. I believe this is the shadowmap being applied to the scene however I could be wrong?
Below is the code in the ShadowMap class used for setting the fx file.
LPDIRECT3DSURFACE9 oldDepthSurface = NULL;
LPDIRECT3DSURFACE9 oldRenderTarget = NULL;
ShadowMap::ShadowMap(void) {
//Create our Light
Vector3D lightPosition(20.0f, 2.9f, 10.0f);

So I'm making my first program w/ C++ and its a game guessing game. I've learned how to use booleans, chars, strings, if/else, loops, and input. Anything past that I dont know. I've gotten my game to work properly except for the fact that when you guess incorrectly, the program closes. I want the program to go to the beginning of the program again so the user can restart. So far i've gotten the loop to beginning thing to work but not well. It'll only repeat twice before closing again and it'll say the user got the wrong answer even if it was correct. Here's my code
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <random>
#include<ctime>
using namespace std;
int game(){
string playerName;
int guess;
[Code] ....
OK, so the program is working minus the play again loop. I even tried a goto statement for it but no luck. Basically what its doing is after the game runs its course it asks if you would like to play again? If you hit Y it starts over but if you it N it starts over. I want it to out put thank you for playing and close after user hits a button.

I'm very very new to maps and am really just trying to hash them out by myself.
If you're mapping strings to integers:
map <string, int> myMap;
myMap[ "zero" ] = 0;
myMap[ "one" ] = 1;
How do I print the string "zero", for instance, from myMap?
cout << myMap.at(0) << endl;
doesn't work. Nor does:
cout << static_cast<string>( myMap.at(0) ) << endl;
I need access to the string using the int and the int using the string. Or just direct access to one or the other. . . It's just confusing that they're technically mapped to one another but I can't really access either of them.
So I'm rewriting an old project of mine, and I'm trying to determine if there's truly any better way to map the data taken from a text file "dictionary" into the correct class fields for further processing. For example:
FNAME=MY_FIRST_NAME
ADDR=123 SOMEWHERE LN, NOWHERESVILLE, TX 01234
LNAME=MY_LAST_NAME
TOTCALLS=47
In each of these, I'd need the "value" (MY_FIRST_NAME, MY_LAST_NAME, etc) from the "keys" (FNAME, LNAME, etc) to be mapped to the proper class fields. Say, for example, I had this:
Class DataProcessing {
public string Address;
public string FirstName;
public string LastName;
public int TotalCalls;
...
}
I would need DataProcessing.Address to be set to the value in the ADDR key/value pair. The same would be true for each other field. The problem is that based on the text file's source (which isn't under my control, and won't be changed anytime soon), the key/value pairs are not always in the same place...so a second file could have the data as such:
TOTCALLS=47
ADDR=123 SOMEWHERE LN, NOWHERESVILLE, TX 01234
LNAME=DARKPOETCC'S LAST NAME
FNAME=DARKPOETCC'S FIRST NAME
Any smarter way to do this than looping through each line that was read in from the file, and determining where it belongs, such as (pseudo code follows):
IF FieldName == "TOTCALLS" THEN
//Assign to TotalCalls field
ELSEIF FieldName == "ADDR" THEN
//Assign to Address field
ELSEIF FieldName == (You get the picture...)
//Do thing N_Field

My map data is in a .map file and I'm wondering how I can manipulate it to change the tiles.For example, If i kill an enemy, I would want his sprite to go away. I need to know how to do this. I also need to know how to have collisions work. At the moment I have a system where it checks if the tile in a certain direction (based on whatever arrow-key I press) is a certain tile by using its variable name TILE_TILENAME. I'm likely not doing this right, as collisions do not work, but the game still runs fine.
