This was originally a forum post so I hope you guys don't mind it being 2 questions
in one.
I am making a game and I got some basic physics implemented. I have 2 problems, 1 with particles being drawn
in the wrong place and one with going through walls while jumping
in corners.
Skip over to about 15 sec
video showing the 2 problems : http://youtube.com/watch?v=Tm9nfWsWfiM
So the problem with the particles seems to be coming from the removal, as soon as I remove that piece of code it instantly works, but there shouldn't be a problem since they shouldn't even draw when their energy gets to 0 (and then they get removed)
So my first question is, how are these particles getting warped all over the screen ?
Relevant code :
Particle class :
class Particle
{
//Physics
public Vector2 position = new Vector2(0,0);
public float direction = 180;
public float speed = 100;
public float energy = 1;
protected float startEnergy = 1;
//Visual
public Sprite sprite;
public float rotation = 0;
public float scale = 1;
public byte alpha = 255;
public BlendMode blendMode
{
get
{
return sprite.BlendMode;
}
set
{
sprite.BlendMode = value;
}
}
public Particle()
{
}
public virtual void Think(float frameTime)
{
if (energy - frameTime < 0)
energy = 0;
else
energy -= frameTime;
position += new Vector2((float)Math.Cos(MathHelper.DegToRad(direction)), (float)Math.Sin(MathHelper.DegToRad(direction))) * speed * frameTime;
alpha = (byte)(255 * energy / startEnergy);
sprite.Rotation = rotation;
sprite.Position = position;
sprite.Color = new Color(sprite.Color.R, sprite.Color.G, sprite.Color.B, alpha);
}
public virtual void Draw(float frameTime)
{
if (energy > 0)
{
World.camera.DrawSprite(sprite);
}
}
// Basic particle implementation
class BasicSprite : Particle
{
public BasicSprite(Sprite _sprite)
{
sprite = _sprite;
}
}
Emitter :
class Emitter
{
protected static Random rand = new Random();
protected List<Particle> particles = new List<Particle>();
public BaseEntity target = null;
public Vector2 position = new Vector2(0, 0);
public bool Active = true;
public float timeAlive = 0;
public int particleCount = 0;
public int ParticlesPerSeccond
{
get
{
return (int)(1 / particleSpawnTime);
}
set
{
particleSpawnTime = 1 / (float)value;
}
}
public float dieTime = float.MaxValue;
float particleSpawnTime = 0.05f;
float spawnTime = 0;
public Emitter()
{
}
public virtual void Think(float frametime)
{
spawnTime += frametime;
if (dieTime != float.MaxValue)
{
timeAlive += frametime;
if (timeAlive >= dieTime)
Active = false;
}
if (Active)
{
if (target != null)
position = target.Position;
while (spawnTime > particleSpawnTime)
{
spawnTime -= particleSpawnTime;
AddParticle();
particleCount++;
}
}
for (int i = 0; i < particles.Count; i++)
{
particles[i].Think(frametime);
if (particles[i].energy <= 0)
{
particles.Remove(particles[i]); // As soon as this is removed, it works
particleCount--;
}
}
}
public virtual void AddParticle()
{
}
public virtual void Draw(float frametime)
{
foreach (Particle particle
in particles)
{
particle.Draw(frametime);
}
}
}
class BloodEmitter : Emitter
{
Image image;
public BloodEmitter()
{
image = new Image(@"Content/Particles/TinyCircle.png");
image.CreateMaskFromColor(new Color(255, 0, 255, 255));
this.dieTime = 0.5f;
this.ParticlesPerSeccond = 100;
}
public override void AddParticle()
{
Sprite sprite = new Sprite(image);
sprite.Color = new Color((byte)(rand.NextDouble() * 255), (byte)(rand.NextDouble() * 255), (byte)(rand.NextDouble() * 255));
BasicSprite particle = new BasicSprite(sprite);
particle.direction = (float)rand.NextDouble() * 360;
particle.position = position;
particle.blendMode = BlendMode.Alpha;
particles.Add(particle);
}
}
The seccond problem is the physics problem, for some reason I can get through the right bottom corner while jumping. I think this is coming from me switching animations but I thought I made it compensate for that.

So why am I warping through walls ?
I have given this some thought but I just can't seem to find out why this is happening.
