  • Is there a simple way to stop enemies standing in the same spot?

    - by Iain
    So: top-down game, my enemies chase the player, when they get within a certain distance they stand still and fire. If they're all coming from the same direction they all end up standing in the same spot (i.e. standing "within" each other), as I'm not currently doing collision detection between enemies - they are free to pass over each other. What's a simple way around this? Either some form of collision detection or some ai?

  • Should a programmer be indispensable?

    - by Tim
    As a programmer or system administrator, you could either strive to have your fingers in every system or to isolate yourself as much as possible to become an easily-substituted cog. Advantages of the latter include being able to take vacations and not being on call, while the former means that you'd always have something to do and be very difficult to fire. Aiming for either extreme would require a conscious effort. Except for the obvious ethical considerations, what should one strive for?

    - by Larolaro

Thanks for reading!

    - by João Angelo
    A new year is upon us and it’s also time for me to end my blogging vacations and get back to the blogosphere. However, let’s start simple… and short. More specifically with a quick way to detect the installed .NET Framework versions on a machine. You just need to fire up Internet Explorer, write the following in the address bar and press enter: javascript:alert(navigator.userAgent) If for any reason you need to copy/paste the resulting information then use the next command instead: javascript:document.write(navigator.userAgent)

  • Techniques to prevent non-official clients in network gaming?

    - by UpTheCreek
    In multi-player network games, what techniques exist to try to ensure that users are connecting with the official client application, and not some hacked client app? I realise there is probably no sure-fire way to do this, but rather I'm interested in techniques that can be employed to mitigate the problem. I'm especially interested in any techniques that can be used for web based games, but I imagine most can be applied generally. Thank you!

  • Concept: Interpretive Spells [closed]

    - by Deathly
    The goal is to be able to create complex spells, that can manipulate the game's environment in non-preprogrammed ways, and to make the program understand spells. For example: $@ $=Big @=Fire You can probably understand what this one means. The player types, writes, or selects symbols. Of course, a spell can be only a few characters, or more sophisticated spells could potentially be hundreds or thousands of symbols long. How could something like this be accomplished?
