Topic: Programming / Game Concept

If anyone has played Fable II or Fable II Pub Games. There is a game where there are cards stacked nd you must not get the same card touching. I have a variant of this (quite varianted actually) but im just wondering if anyone culd do this. If not, I can probably work out how to make it myself.

Please reply back, Brad.

Make a game in Flash or Director. Publish it as a SWF or a first DCR file, and then upload. Easy peasy.

Topic: Programming / Game Demensions Size

standard 550×400 is ok. But try something like 600×500 for a sniper game, bit bigger screen. But its up to you.

Topic: Programming / Help With A Game Engine

Could anyone suggest a way I could get a game engine similar to Bucketball

Ive tried a few methods but it always ends up with an annoying glitch.

I would probs be able to work out the code myself, im just not sure how to actually make it work.

Topic: Programming / Flash game that can get user stats from Kongregate?

Erm, you can get these if i remember right.

In AS2 you can get
-Username

In AS3 you can get
-Username
-Points
-Level

I dont think you can get much more than that.

Topic: Programming / 2 Quick Questions

1. I want just a simply trail sort of thing behind this movieclip. Any idea how to do it?

2. I want a box to get larger on the xscale when the boxes x is close to the cursor_x. And the yscale to get larger when the cursor_y is close. And get smaller as it gets further away.

Cheers guys.

Topic: Programming / Rotating Movieclips To Mouse Position

cool, lol, only one suggestion actually works properly (cheers matt, managed to translate this to what I needed very easily!

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
	angle = (180*Math.atan2(_root._ymouse-this._y, _root._xmouse-this._x))/Math.PI+90;
	this._rotation = angle;
}

works like a charm!

Topic: Programming / Minor setback in Kong RPG game

Basically, when the character moves over the flashing door, the player can press SPACE to enter the store. So the store links to another frame, where the store has several buttons to buy things. But the buttons occasionaly are off the stage and everything.

EDIT: Nvm, gave some properties to the camera im using to focus on the central button, works. Thanks anyway.

Topic: Programming / Minor setback in Kong RPG game

Im around 20% done through making the game, got the controls, map, enterable areas, shops and stuff done but the shop occasionally appears elsewhere. Its a really odd problem, and one im sure could be solved easily.

The camera im using is API cam from the newgrounds forum.

Topic: Programming / Which is the best way of coding this?

Basically, im making a game similar to Stick RPG, and ive got the elements of time, stats, sleep, health and education and money, but im trying to get my guy to walk while staying on the center of the stage.

So.

1. Shall I give the commands to the background, so it goes the opposing way, then swap the commands.

EG.

map.onEnterFrame = function (){
if (Key.isDown(Key.LEFT){
map._x+=4;
}......

That, but then my hitTest occasionaly spases out.

Ive tried using V-Cam but it seems fairly ackward to what ive done so far.

And ive tried using a method which was really odd, it worked, but for some reason it doesnt work with the hitTest.

SO, what is the best way of doing that?
