  • Refactoring a javascript array rotate function

    - by ideotop
    I wrote a rotate function, but I'm not satisfied with it: var pixels=['011','110','000']; var result=new Array(); result=['000','000','000']; for ( y=0; y<(pixels.length); y++ ){ for ( x=0; x<(pixels.length); x++ ){ var newx=0,newy=0; if ( clock ){ if ( x< r.x && y< r.y ) {newx=x+2;newy=y ;}//top left if ( x==r.x && y< r.y ) {newx=x+1;newy=y+1;}//top if ( x> r.x && y< r.y ) {newx=x ;newy=y+2;}//top right if ( x< r.x && y==r.y ) {newx=x+1;newy=y-1;}//left if ( x==r.x && y==r.y ) {newx=x ;newy=y ;}//center if ( x> r.x && y==r.y ) {newx=x-1;newy=y+1;}//right if ( x< r.x && y> r.y ) {newx=x ;newy=y-2;}//bottom left if ( x==r.x && y> r.y ) {newx=x-1;newy=y-1;}//bottom if ( x> r.x && y> r.y ) {newx=x-2;newy=y ;}//bottom right } else { if ( x< r.x && y< r.y ) {newx=x ;newy=y+2;}//top left if ( x==r.x && y< r.y ) {newx=x-1;newy=y+1;}//top if ( x> r.x && y< r.y ) {newx=x-2;newy=y ;}//top right if ( x< r.x && y==r.y ) {newx=x+1;newy=y+1;}//left if ( x==r.x && y==r.y ) {newx=x ;newy=y ;}//center if ( x> r.x && y==r.y ) {newx=x-1;newy=y-1;}//right if ( x< r.x && y> r.y ) {newx=x+2;newy=y ;}//bottom left if ( x==r.x && y> r.y ) {newx=x+1;newy=y-1;}//bottom if ( x> r.x && y> r.y ) {newx=x ;newy=y-2;}//bottom right } //inject(result,newx,newy,pixels[y][x]) } } does someone now how to write a cleaner code for this rotate (clock and counter-clock) function ?

  • How do I implement movement in a WPF Adventure game?

    - by ZeroPhase
    I'm working on making a short WPF adventure game. The only major hurdle I have right now is how to animate objects on the screen correctly. I've experimented with DoubleAnimation and ThicknessAnimation both enable movement of the character, but the speed is a bit erratic. The objects I'm trying to move around are labels in a grid, I'm checking the mouse's position in terms of the canvas I have the grid in. Does anyone have any suggestions for coding the movement, while still allowing mouse clicks to pick up items when needed? It would be nice if I could continue using the Visual Studio GUI Editor. By the way, I'm fine with scrapping labels in a grid for a more ideal object to manipulate. Here's my movement code: ThicknessAnimation ta = new ThicknessAnimation(); The event handling movement: private void Hansel_MouseLeftButtonDown(object sender, MouseButtonEventArgs e) { ta.FillBehavior = FillBehavior.HoldEnd; ta.From = Hansel.Margin; double newX = Mouse.GetPosition(PlayArea).X; double newY = Mouse.GetPosition(PlayArea).Y; if (newX < Convert.ToDouble(Hansel.Margin.Left)) { //newX = -1 * newX; ta.To = new Thickness(0, newY, newX, 0); } else if (newY < Convert.ToDouble(Hansel.Margin.Top)) { newY = -1 * newY; } else { ta.To = new Thickness(newX, newY, 0, 0); } ta.Duration = new Duration(TimeSpan.FromSeconds(2)); Hansel.BeginAnimation(Grid.MarginProperty, ta); } ScreenShot with annotations: http://i1118.photobucket.com/albums/k608/sealclubberr/clickToMove_zps9d4a33cc.png ScreenShot with example movement: http://i1118.photobucket.com/albums/k608/sealclubberr/clickToMove_zps51f2359f.jpg

  • reset, Tweener, AS3

    How do I reset my numbers after they count? I want something like an onComplete function. DESCRIPTION My animation advances 120 pixels from it's current position, then flys off the stage. It was looping, and would yoyo to the bottom before advancing. I don't want my numbers yoyoing or flying off the stage. My numbers must move 120 pixels forward each count, then return. NumbersView.as 'the code works, but in a messed up way as described' package { import flash.display.DisplayObject; import flash.display.MovieClip; import flash.utils.Dictionary; import flash.events.Event; import caurina.transitions.Tweener; public class NumbersView extends MovieClip { private var _listItems:Array; private var previousNums:Array; private const numHeight:int = 120; public function NumbersView() { _listItems = new Array(); previousNums = new Array(); //Tweener.init(); var item:NumberImage; for (var i:Number = 0; i < 9; i++) { item = new NumberImage(); addChild(item); item.x = i * item.width; _listItems.push(item); } } public function setTime($number:String):void { var nums:Array = $number.split(""); //trace("$number = " + $number); for (var i:Number = 0; i < nums.length; i++) { if (nums[i] == previousNums[i]) continue; Tweener.removeTweens(_listItems[i]); //newY:int = -numHeight; var newY:int = int(nums[i]) * -numHeight; trace("newY = " + newY); trace("currY = " + _listItems[i].y); /*----------------------PROBLEM AREA, RIGHT HERE------------------------*/ //if (_listItems[i].y < 0) _listItems[i].y = numHeight;// //Tweener.addTween(_listItems[i], { y:newY, time:3 } );// Tweener.addTween(_listItems[i], { y:_listItems[i].y+newY, time:3 } );// } previousNums = nums; } } } Tweener Example http://hosted.zeh.com.br/tweener/docs/en-us/parameters/onComplete.html

  • Inherited varibles are not reading correctly when using bitwise comparisons

    - by Shawn B
    Hey, I have a few classes set up for a game, with XMapObject as the base, and XEntity, XEnviron, and XItem inheriting it. MapObjects have a number of flags, one of them being MAPOBJECT_SOLID. My problem is, that XEntity is the only class that correctly detects MAPOBJECT_SOLID. Both Items are Environs are always considered solid by the game, regardless of the flag's state. What is important, is that Environs and Item should almost never be solid. Here are the relevent code samples: XMapObject: class XMapObject : public XObject { public: Uint8 MapObjectType,Location[2],MapObjectFlags; XMapObject *NextMapObject,*PrevMapObject; XMapObject(); void CreateMapObject(Uint8 MapObjectType); void SpawnMapObject(Uint8 MapObjectLocation[2]); void RemoveMapObject(); void DeleteMapObject(); void MapObjectSetLocation(Uint8 Y,Uint8 X); void MapObjectMapLink(); void MapObjectMapUnlink(); }; XEntity: class XEntity : public XMapObject { public: Uint8 Health,EntityFlags; float Speed,Time; XEntity *NextEntity,*PrevEntity; XItem *IventoryList; XEntity(); void CreateEntity(Uint8 EntityType,Uint8 EntityLocation[2]); void DeleteEntity(); void EntityLink(); void EntityUnlink(); Uint8 MoveEntity(Uint8 YOffset,Uint8 XOffset); }; XEnviron: class XEnviron : public XMapObject { public: Uint8 Effect,TimeOut; void CreateEnviron(Uint8 Type,Uint8 Y,Uint8 X,Uint8 TimeOut); }; XItem: class XItem : public XMapObject { public: void CreateItem(Uint8 Type,Uint8 Y,Uint8 X); }; And lastly, the entity move code. Only entities are capable of moving themselves. Uint8 XEntity::MoveEntity(Uint8 YOffset,Uint8 XOffset) { Uint8 NewY = Location[0] + YOffset, NewX = Location[1] + XOffset; if((NewY >= 0 && NewY < MAPY) && (NewX >= 0 && NewX < MAPX)) { XTile *Tile = GetTile(NewY,NewX); if(Tile->MapList != NULL) { XMapObject *MapObject = Tile->MapList; while(MapObject != NULL) { if(MapObject->MapObjectFlags & MAPOBJECT_SOLID) { printf("solid\n"); return 0; } MapObject = MapObject->NextMapObject; } } if(Tile->Flags & TILE_SOLID && EntityFlags & ENTITY_CLIPPING) { return 0; } this->MapObjectSetLocation(NewY,NewX); return 1; } return 0; } What is wierd, is that the bitwise operator always returns true when the MapObject is an Environ or an Item, but it works correctly for Entities. For debug I am using the printf "Solid", and also a printf containing the value of the flag for both Environs and Items. Any help is greatly appreciated, as this is a major bug for the small game I am working on.

  • ObjectListView: Custom Sorter

    - by Mike
    In the control ObjectListView(http://objectlistview.sourceforge.net/html/cookbook.htm), I'm trying to add a custom sorter where it ignores "The" and "A" prefixes. I managed to do it with a regular ListView, but now that I switched to ObjectListView(a lot more features, and ease), I can't seem to do the same. The following is the Main comparer in the ObjectListView code i think... public int Compare(object x, object y) { return this.Compare((OLVListItem)x, (OLVListItem)y); } Original Sorter for ascending, as an example (Ignoring "A" and "The") public class CustomSortAsc : IComparer { int IComparer.Compare(Object x, Object y) { string[] px = Convert.ToString(x).Split(' '); string[] py = Convert.ToString(y).Split(' '); string newX = ""; string newY = ""; for (int i = 0; i < px.Length; i++) { px[i] = px[i].Replace("{", ""); px[i] = px[i].Replace("}", ""); } for (int i = 0; i < py.Length; i++) { py[i] = py[i].Replace("{", ""); py[i] = py[i].Replace("}", ""); } if ((px[1].ToLower() == "a") || (px[1].ToLower() == "the")) { if (px.Length > 1) { for (int i = 2; i < px.Length; i++) newX += px[i]; } } else { for (int i = 1; i < px.Length; i++) newX += px[i]; } if ((py[1].ToLower() == "a") || (py[1].ToLower() == "the")) { if (py.Length > 1) { for (int i = 2; i < py.Length; i++) newY += py[i]; } } else { for (int i = 1; i < py.Length; i++) newY += py[i]; } return ((new CaseInsensitiveComparer()).Compare(newX, newY)); }

  • Base-camp Style Subdomains and IDs of Models

    - by Newy
    I have an app that has Basecamp-style subdomains, that is, I have Projects, Users, Apples and Oranges. The Users, Apples and Oranges are all keyed to a Project and only exist in the http://project.myapp.com. I added a project_id to Users, Apples and Oranges and everything works, except of course that the ids of those three objects increment globally, and throughout my app I lookup objects by that id. This doesn't seem like best practice. Should I instead do lookups by a secondary key? How does that affect efficiency? If there's a good blog post that covers this, would be wesome.

  • Sharing authentication between forum and main CMS in Rails

    - by Newy
    I have a Rails forum product that resides under the subdomains of my customers (i.e. http://forum.customer.com). Their main site has a CMS and an authentication system, and my forum product has a separate authentication system. Is there an elegant way to have "cross-signins" across these systems? I want someone already logged into the main CMS to seamlessly (as possible) transition into my product.

  • How do I let a user sign in from a different domain on Authlogic?

    - by Newy
    [This is slightly different than a previous question about having multiple domains share the same cookie. It seemed like there wasn't an easy way to do that.] I have a application at application.com. A customer has app.customer.com pointed at my site on Heroku, and I have everything set up so that it renders a specific version of app correctly. The issue is that I want a user at app.customer.com to be able to login. I believe authlogic is now setting the cookie on application.com, so while it verifies the credentials, no session on customer.com is ever created.

    - by Newy
    Say I have http://www.mysite.com/I-Like-Cheeseburgers and I want that to point to Item with id 3. Sometime later, I change the name of the item, and now its http://www.mysite.com/I-Like-Hamburgers (and perhaps many more times). I want all these URLs to remain pointing to Item 3. Is it efficient to simply keep a table of [strings,item_ids] and do a lookup on this? Is there a better way?

  • Polymorphic associations in Rails

    - by Newy
    Say I have two models, Apples and Oranges, and they are both associated with a description in a Text model. Text is a separate class as I'd like to keep track of the different revisions. Is the following correct? Is there a better way to do this? [Apple] has_one :text, :as => :targit, :order => 'id DESC' has_many :revisions, :class_name => 'Text', :as => :targit, :order => 'id', :dependent => :destroy [Text] belongs_to :targit, :polymorphic => true

  • map.resources, :as => root?

    - by Newy
    I'd like to map my Users to root - so '/:id'. I do the following now map.connect ':id', :controller = 'users', :action = 'show' ... but I'd also like the links that are generated by Rails to have this format. Can I do a map.resources ... :as = :root or something similar?

  • 45° Slopes in a Tile based 2D platformer

    - by xNidhogg
    I want to have simple 45° slopes in my tile based platformer, however I just cant seem to get the algorithm down. Please take a look at the code and video, maybe I'm missing the obvious? //collisionRectangle is the collision rectangle of the player with //origin at the top left and width and height //wantedPosition is the new position the player will be set to. //this is determined elsewhere by checking the bottom center point of the players rect if(_leftSlope || _rightSlope) { //Test bottom center point var calculationPoint = new Vector2(collisionRectangle.Center.X, collisionRectangle.Bottom); //Get the collision rectangle of the tile, origin is top-left Rectangle cellRect = _tileMap.CellWorldRectangle( _tileMap.GetCellByPixel(calculationPoint)); //Calculate the new Y coordinate depending on if its a left or right slope //CellSize = 8 float newY = _leftSlope ? (calculationPoint.X % CellSize) + cellRect.Y : (-1 * (calculationPoint.X % CellSize) - CellSize) + cellRect.Y; //reset variables so we dont jump in here next frame _leftSlope = false; _rightSlope = false; //now change the players Y according to the difference of our calculation wantedPosition.Y += newY - calculationPoint.Y; } Video of what it looks like: http://youtu.be/EKOWgD2muoc

  • Relative encapsulation design

    - by taher1992
    Let's say I am doing a 2D application with the following design: There is the Level object that manages the world, and there are world objects which are entities inside the Level object. A world object has a location and velocity, as well as size and a texture. However, a world object only exposes get properties. The set properties are private (or protected) and are only available to inherited classes. But of course, Level is responsible for these world objects, and must somehow be able to manipulate at least some of its private setters. But as of now, Level has no access, meaning world objects must change its private setters to public (violating encapsulation). How to tackle this problem? Should I just make everything public? Currently what I'm doing is having a inner class inside game object that does the set work. So when Level needs to update an objects location it goes something like this: void ChangeObject(GameObject targetObject, int newX, int newY){ // targetObject.SetX and targetObject.SetY cannot be set directly var setter = new GameObject.Setter(targetObject); setter.SetX(newX); setter.SetY(newY); } This code feels like overkill, but it doesn't feel right to have everything public so that anything can change an objects location for example.

  • Change UIImageView Center - iPhone

    - by CccTrash
    I am trying to make a little ball that rolls around based on the accelerometer values in the iPhone. This code will not build: -(void)accelerometer:(UIAccelerometer *)accelerometer didAccelerate:(UIAcceleration *)acceleration { if(difficulty == @"easy") { CGFloat newX = (CGFloat)(ball.center.x + (CGFloat)acceleration.x); CGFloat newY = (CGFloat)(ball.center.y + (CGFloat)acceleration.y); ball.center.x = newX; ball.center.y = newY; } } It gives me an lvalue required as left operand of assignment error. I've tried 100 different things and I fail every time...This is just the latest failure. Anyone have any insight?

  • Modifying reference member from const member function in C++

    - by Philipp
    I am working on const-correctness of my code and just wondered why this code compiles: class X { int x; int& y; public: X(int& _y):y(_y) { } void f(int& newY) const { //x = 3; would not work, that's fine y = newY; //does compile. Why? } }; int main(int argc, char **argv) { int i1=0, i2=0; X myX(i1); myX.f(i2); ... } As far as I understand, f() is changing the object myX, although it says to be const. How can I ensure my compiler complains when I do assign to y? (Visual C++ 2008) Thank a lot!

  • Raphael JS image animation performance.

    - by michael
    Hi, I'm trying to create an image animation using Raphael JS. I want the effect of a bee moving randomly across the page, I've got a working example but it's a bit "jittery", and I'm getting this warning in the console: "Resource interpreted as image but transferred with MIME type text/html" I'm not sure if the warning is causing the "jittery" movement or its just the way I approached it using maths. If anyone has a better way to create the effect, or improvements please let me know. I have a demo online here and heres my javascript code: function random(min, max) { return Math.floor(Math.random() * (max - min + 1)) + min; } function BEE(x, y, scale) { this.x = x; this.y = y; this.s = scale; this.paper = Raphael("head", 915, 250); this.draw = function() { this.paper.clear(); this.paper.image("bee.png", this.x, this.y, 159*this.s, 217*this.s); } this.update = function() { var deg = random(-25, 25); var newX = Math.cos(Raphael.rad(deg)) * 2; var newY = Math.sin(Raphael.rad(deg)) * 2; this.x += newX; this.y += newY; if( this.x > 915) { this.x = 0; } if( this.y > 250 || this.y < 0 ) { this.y = 125; } } } $(document).ready(function() { var bee = new BEE(100, 150, 0.4); var timer = setInterval(function(){ bee.draw(); bee.update(); }, 15); }
