Kongregate offers a great payment system. Over the years I have made lots of money, so make games.. its worth the time. Just for all those younger devs out there, I started on Kong when I was 13, and i’m 16 now. Love this site.

Topic: Serious Discussion / Is forced sexual equality bad or good?

I don’t agree that the quotas are low though….
Take a look at Norway they introduced a huge quota and forced fines and shutdowns on those that did not fill the quota..

Topic: Serious Discussion / Is forced sexual equality bad or good?

Iv been reading up on it…
http://www.bis.gov.uk/assets/biscore/business-law/docs/w/11-745-women-on-boards.pdf
….
Seems to me there is allot of sexual equality being forced on the workplace. Now I know its good because it helps females into the workplace. But does this not also mean it forces company’s to not take on male workers due to the fact even though he may be qualified more than the women, the company due to the quota is required to take on the women for fear of fine or even being closed down.

Could in the end this result in work places consisting of a less experience work place due to the potential male workers of whom may be better suiting the job are turned down due to forced quotas.

Topic: Off-topic / Should I be worried ?

A man just rang the bell and asked me if my mum and dad were in, obviously they wearnt, no cars in lights out mostly and then said he will be back when i said no.
He had no car and only a bag whitch looked large enough to carry tools and stuff, he looked rough and dodgy, think he was trying to check our house to rob it.
I dought he knew us due to the fact my Dad does not live here and my parents split up, i dought he was charity because no one looks for people at this time and at a house with empty drive and no lights on ….. im sorta scared seeing as i saw him when i peeped out of window at bottom of street standing there and then he saw me …. :(.
Any advice, is this normal.
It’s just i think he might have been checking if house was empty, he was quite adament at getting a response he rang the bell like constantly till he got an answer.

Topic: Game Programming / Are my vars gettig out of controll ?

I think it’s better to do it with the words. And spelling shouldnt be too bad. If you mean capitalization issues, use camelCase. Look at how easy it would be:

 weapon = "cutlass";

weapon = "crossbow"; 

It’s so simple. I cant even find a word where I’d need to use camelCase.

Thanks for all the advice, im trying to simplyfy, the way i see it i should be fine, i just gotta be carfull and start using arrays and classes maybe.

Because as a side note iv never used arrays and classes in my games, i know how to use arrays only slightly but i dont know classes attal, never really needed them.

Hmmm… something good to do instead of what you have is:

 weapon = "dagger"; 

possible but with simple ids i can make a referance dictonary and not have to worry about spellings and stuff

Topic: Game Programming / Are my vars gettig out of controll ?

Well to me it seems like i’m using vars to much, am i ?

on(release) // on click
{
name =‘NameHere’ // chars name
sword = 1 // gives char sword 1 whitch is dagger
one.store = 1 // inventory storage code
gotoAndStop(‘map21’) // location when clicked
gold = 100 // starting gold
goldtxt= ‘Gold:’gold // text for amount of gold
chest1 = 10 // setup for chest 1
chest2 = 10 // setup for chest 2
totalhp = 10 // setup starting hp total
hpu = totalhp // setsup battle current hp
hpbar =‘Hp:’hpu+’/‘+totalhp // text for current hp to total hp
totalmp = 50 // starting total magic points
mpu = totalmp // current mp
mpbar =’Mp:‘mpu’/‘+totalmp // text for magic points
totallv = 1 // current total lv
lvu = totallv // current secondary lv holder
lvbar =’Level:’+lvu // level text
exptotal =0 // exp total
expneed = 25 // exp needed to level
root.exptotaltxt =“Experience:”_root.exptotal“/”+root.expneed // exp text

}

Its got no preloader and will take about 1 – 3 mins to load.
So much work into this so far.
Space bar to interact with things – Go left, then up into the house and then space when you touch the npc to fight a monster.
