  • Existent js libs for tileset / map loading and rendering?

    - by ylluminate
    I'm building an rts style overhead tileset game with JavaScript (particularly using Ember.js framework as a base). The map is so large that I'd very much like to be able to load and render the board and layered items in a Google Maps'esque. I'm curious as to whether there are existing libs that would be helpful and already well thought out in these regards vs trying to reinvent the wheel. Are there any such libraries or code examples that would be useful in this area of board / map management?

  • Basic/research RTS engine/model

    - by XTF
    Does a basic/research RTS engine/model exist that can be used as a basis for further experimentation/research? I'd like to avoid reinventing the wheel if possible. I'm aware of Spring Engine and Stratagus, but those are real game engines and may not be the best to experiment with and learn from. Ideally the docs for the model would answer questions like: How exactly do units move? (constant velocity? constant acceleration? constant force?) How is pathfinding handled? Does every grid cell become an A* graph node (may be expensive)? Does it consider threats? How are groups handled? (w.r.t pathfinding and movement) How is combat handled? I'm mostly interested in the low-level model details (for now), not the graphics etc. I've read a lot of the other quesions (and answers/references) tagged RTS but I haven't found my answer yet.

  • Middle mouse button stopped working after most recent update [10.04 LS]

    - by Vero
    After the last time my Ubuntu 10.04 installed updates, my mouse middle button stopped working. The mouse is Toshiba and has three buttons (the middle one below the wheel). I activated the emulation in the meanwhile, but I prefer to keep using the button. I really don't know what update ruined it. Now I have kernel 2.6.32-43-generic. The only configuration file I found is: /usr/lib/X11/xorg.conf.d/05-evdev.conf

  • OS X 10.6 Apply ipfw rules at startup

    - by Michael Irey
    I have a couple of firewall rules I would to like to apply at startup. I have followed the instructions from http://images.apple.com/support/security/guides/docs/SnowLeopard_Security_Config_v10.6.pdf On page 192. However, the rules do not get applied at startup. I am running 10.6.8 NON Server Edition. I can however run: (Which applies the rules correctly) sudo ipfw /etc/ipfw.conf Which results in: 00100 fwd 127.0.0.1,8080 tcp from any to any dst-port 80 in 00200 fwd 127.0.0.1,8443 tcp from any to any dst-port 443 in 65535 allow ip from any to any Here is my /etc/ipfw.conf # To get real 80 and 443 while loading vagrant vbox add fwd localhost,8080 tcp from any to any 80 in add fwd localhost,8443 tcp from any to any 443 in Here is my /Library/LaunchDaemons/ipfw.plist <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple Computer//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"> <plist version="1.0"> <dict> <key>Label</key> <string>ipfw</string> <key>Program</key> <string>/sbin/ipfw</string> <key>ProgramArguments</key> <array> <string>/sbin/ipfw</string> <string>/etc/ipfw.conf</string> </array> <key>RunAtLoad</key> <true /> </dict> </plist> The permissions of all the files seem to be appropriate: -rw-rw-r-- 1 root wheel 151 Oct 11 14:11 /etc/ipfw.conf -rw-rw-r-- 1 root wheel 438 Oct 11 14:09 /Library/LaunchDaemons/ipfw.plist Any thoughts or ideas on what could be wrong would be very helpful!

  • su not giving proper message for restricted LDAP groups

    - by user1743881
    I have configured PAM authentication on Linux box to restrict particular group only to login. I have enabled pam and ldap through authconfig and modified access.conf like below, [root@test root]# tail -1 /etc/security/access.conf - : ALL EXCEPT root test-auth : ALL Also modified sudoers file, to get su for this group <code> [root@test ~]# tail -1 /etc/sudoers %test-auth ALL=/bin/su</code> Now, only this ldap group members can login to system. However when from any of this authorized user, I tried for su, it asks for password and then though I enter correct password it gives message like Incorrect password and login failed. /var/log/secure shows that user is not having permission to get the access, but then it should print message like Access denied.The way it prints for console login. My functionality is working but its no giving proper messages. Could anyone please help on this. My /etc/pam.d/su file, [root@test root]# cat /etc/pam.d/su #%PAM-1.0 auth sufficient pam_rootok.so # Uncomment the following line to implicitly trust users in the "wheel" group. #auth sufficient pam_wheel.so trust use_uid # Uncomment the following line to require a user to be in the "wheel" group. #auth required pam_wheel.so use_uid auth include system-auth account sufficient pam_succeed_if.so uid = 0 use_uid quiet account include system-auth password include system-auth session include system-auth session optional pam_xauth.so

  • WPF DataGrid style Silverlight DataGrid?

    - by Shimmy
    That's not a secret: Silverlight's DataGrid default style is beautiful while WPF's is poor. Instead of reinventing the wheel let me ask the community if anyone has copied the SL styles to use in WPF. Silverlight default-style DataGrid: WPF default-style DataGrid (updated after Saied K's answer):

  • Implementing SSL tunnel in C#

    - by RaYell
    As a part of a larger application I need to implement an SSL tunnel in C#. I was wondering if there's a better way of doing that instead of writing each step of SSL negotiation myself which sounds like reinventing the wheel. Do you know if there are any libraries that I could use to minimize the code I need to write or any tutorials which show how this or similar thing can be implemented most efficiently in .NET?

  • Java: remove-common-words-method in the API?

    - by HH
    Related: Forum post Before reinventing the wheel, I need to know whether such method exists. Stripping words according to a list such as list does not sound challenging but there are linguistic aspects, such as which words to stress the most in stripping, how about context?

  • Why not use PHP's built-in session handling?

    - by Dougal
    Is there currently - or has there ever been - any serious or significant problem with PHP's built-in session handling? I mean, it's always worked for me and my projects. But I see some codebases and frameworks out there seem to use a custom handler. Is this reinventing the wheel? Or improving on some flaws? What flaws?

  • Looking for Java libraries to create a report editor

    - by Julian
    I have to develop a specialised report editor in Java. The user will get a number of fields that can be layed out on a page plus some graphical elements. The resulting report design needs to be serialized into already defined database tables. Is there any software library that will help to achieve this without reinventing the wheel? I have come across Eclipse GEF and Zest, but I am not sure if this really meets my problem.

  • Class for move, scale and rotate, of a uiimageview

    - by David
    Hi Everyone, I'm creating a subclass of UIImageView that detects touches, and will move, rotate and scale the image based on the touches. However, I really feel like I'm reinventing the wheel here, and it's driving me nuts. Shouldn't this already exist somewhere? Does anyone have any examples, or links to a class that is already doing this? Or if you have a class you've written, that'd be helpful too. Thanks a lot in advance.

  • Incorrect new Uri(base, relative) behaviour in .NET

    - by dr. evil
    When you create a new Uri like this: New Uri(New Uri("http://example.com/test.php"),"?x=y") it returns: http://example.com/?x=y It was supposed to return: http://example.com/test.php?x=y according to the every major browser out there (I'm not quite sure what RFC says though). Is this is a bug or is there any other function out there which behaves correctly, also what's the best way to fix it without reinventing the wheel?

  • Is there an open source UIView subclass for creating multiple, dynamic tabs in the iPhone (iPad) SDK

    - by smountcastle
    Is there an open source UIView component that supports multiple, dynamic tabbed views for the iPhone (iPad) SDK? I see several apps in the iPad App Store which utilize tabs, one such example is the Atomic Web Browser which provides a tabbed browsing experience (like Safari on the Mac or Firefox). Instead of reinventing this functionality, I'd like to reuse an existing component.

  • Are there any StatusNet toolkits for .NET?

    - by Broam
    There are plenty of projects out there that assist developers in posting things to Twitter; the one I can think of off the top of my head is Twitterizer. Are there any projects for posting to StatusNet? Given that StatusNet implements an API very similar to Twitter, I could probably modify/extend Twitterizer to do just that. However, I'd like to avoid reinventing the wheel if at all possible if something exists already.

  • Is there a website to lookup already common code functions?

    - by pinnacler
    I'm sitting here writing a function that I'm positive has been written before, somewhere on earth. It's just too common to have not been attempted, and I'm wondering why I can't just go to a website and search for a function that I can then copy and paste into my project in 2 seconds, instead of wasting my day reinventing the wheel. Sure there are certain libraries you can use, but where do you find these libraries and when they are absent, is there a site like I'm describing?

  • Are there IDEs in which the code-completion widget is not a linear list?

    - by Uri
    Most mainstream IDEs use code-completion in the form of a linear list of suggestions (typically methods). Are there any IDEs (mainstream or not) or IDE plugins that use a non-linear widget, such as a tree? (e.g., pick category first, then the actual recommendation)? I'm working on an IDE feature and want to make sure I'm not reinventing the wheel or infringing some patent.

  • java - unwanted object overwriting

    - by gosling
    Hello everyone! I'm trying to make a program that solves the logic wheels puzzle. I construct the root node and I try to produce the different child-nodes that are produced by making different moves of the wheels. The problem is that while I try to produce the children, the root node is overwrited,and everything is messed-up and I really don't know why. Here you can find the puzzle logic wheels. I represent the wheels as 3x3 arrays. Here is the code that implements the moves: public Node turn_right(Node aNode, int which_wheel) { Node newNode = new Node(aNode.getYellow_wheel(),aNode.getBlue_wheel(),aNode.getGreen_wheel()); int[][] yellow = new int[3][3]; int[][] blue = new int[3][3]; int[][] green = new int[3][3]; if(which_wheel==0) //turn yellow wheel of this node to right { yellow[1][0] = newNode.getYellow_wheel()[0][0]; yellow[2][0] = newNode.getYellow_wheel()[1][0]; yellow[2][1] = newNode.getYellow_wheel()[2][0]; yellow[2][2] = newNode.getYellow_wheel()[2][1]; yellow[1][2] = newNode.getYellow_wheel()[2][2]; yellow[0][2] = newNode.getYellow_wheel()[1][2]; yellow[0][1] = newNode.getYellow_wheel()[0][2]; yellow[0][0] = newNode.getYellow_wheel()[0][1]; blue = newNode.getBlue_wheel(); blue[1][0] = newNode.getYellow_wheel()[1][2]; blue[2][0] = newNode.getYellow_wheel()[2][2]; green = newNode.getGreen_wheel(); } else if(which_wheel == 1)// turn blue wheel of this node to right { blue[1][0] = newNode.getBlue_wheel()[0][0]; blue[2][0] = newNode.getBlue_wheel()[1][0]; blue[2][1] = newNode.getBlue_wheel()[2][0]; blue[2][2] = newNode.getBlue_wheel()[2][1]; blue[1][2] = newNode.getBlue_wheel()[2][2]; blue[0][2] = newNode.getBlue_wheel()[1][2]; blue[0][1] = newNode.getBlue_wheel()[0][2]; blue[0][0] = newNode.getBlue_wheel()[0][1]; yellow = newNode.getYellow_wheel(); yellow[0][2] = newNode.getBlue_wheel()[0][0]; yellow[1][2] = newNode.getBlue_wheel()[1][0]; green = newNode.getGreen_wheel(); green[1][0] = newNode.getBlue_wheel()[1][2]; green[2][0] = newNode.getBlue_wheel()[2][2]; } else if (which_wheel == 2)//turn green wheel of this node to right { green[0][0] = newNode.getGreen_wheel()[0][1]; green[0][1] = newNode.getGreen_wheel()[0][2]; green[0][2] = newNode.getGreen_wheel()[1][2]; green[1][2] = newNode.getGreen_wheel()[2][2]; green[2][2] = newNode.getGreen_wheel()[2][1]; green[2][1] = newNode.getGreen_wheel()[2][0]; green[2][0] = newNode.getGreen_wheel()[1][0]; green[1][0] = newNode.getGreen_wheel()[0][0]; yellow = newNode.getYellow_wheel(); blue = newNode.getBlue_wheel(); blue[0][2] = newNode.getGreen_wheel()[0][0]; blue[1][2] = newNode.getGreen_wheel()[1][0]; } newNode= new Node(yellow,blue,green); return newNode; } There is another function, like this one that does the oposite:it turns the wheels to left. My problem is that I do not want object's aNode tables to be overwritten. Thank you very much.
