I am implementing Lua in my engine, so now I am doing so items can be loaded from lua into the game. What im having problem is that it seems like i cant overload my class specific functions in lua. thi is my item struct: struct item { string name; //name of the item bool hasOwner; player* Owner; //o...

I made a program that can make lua wrap code to wrap classes for luabind, it asks you for what the lua state is named and the class and its functions and variables. I figured someone might want to use it to port their own classes to lua, it saves the code to a text file that you just copy. The sourc...

that seems nice i should probably check this AABB out, thx :D

So you are saying i should use normal collision detection for squares? Yeah I probably should, but i want to see if its possible with this, and if so then i could probably use it with rotating squares too. Im just interested in if something like this is possible, not for what i should use but tnx a...

Well, this might be more of a math problem but still... I recently found out that i could easily check the distance between two objects using pythagoras theorem :P, so i used it for colission detection, it works great for circles and that but, when for example i want to check the colission between w...

you are passing references which meybe is the same object that you are just changing...
try using new like this:
CreateTile(new tile);
i hope it helps

Yes, you might want to look into spritesheets and SDL_Rect s. Yes, ofc i know what that is and how to use it, its just i ask how to keep it somewhat structured as tiles and still have it animated.. hmm You would just create another class eg. animatedTile and have code very similar to your sprite an...

Did you get this idea from quake? Like others have said, I would only use it for stuff that is active (moving etc). a sample class would be /* UNTESTED CODE, PROBABLY REALLY CRAPPY STUFF D: */ class Entity { public: Entity(SDL_Surface* image); Entity(); ~Entity(); void move(float nvx, float nvy); p...

is it good if i make every object and things inherit from the class entity( wich i made) and then make a vector of entity pointers and have all my game objects in that vector, so it would be easier to check collision and things? what is good and what i bad about this and can it be done in a better w...

Sue them.

Sounds like Counter-Strike, in 2D~! lol, Yea... if this is your goal, it's great! If you are planning on doing it in the summer, or any date other then the next few years,it's not for you... (assuming you are a beginner) Anyway... good luck with that. There is only one problem here, and it is, no o...

Why mac? Why not Linux, i know the linux guys has been wanting it very much, including me. I hope they eventually port it to linux after the mac ports.. or else :twisted: I assume that most companies don't bother making a port to linux because it's linux . Linux is about free and open software (aft...
