Blitz Coding - 360 Degree Movement

[mewetea119]

thank you so much for making this video... i spent allot of time trying to rap my little brain around the math in this :p

[pufixas]

Thank you so much! :)

I'm happy that you are back

I see that you use CamStudio for your videos?

Can you make tutorial how to record HD videos with that so if you upload i will get same quality as your videos. And what codecs you use?

I tried CamStudio but never got HD out of it.

Do my eyes deceive me? Has amcadam started making videos again? For that I subscribe and take off my hat. On a more serious note, Thanks and welcome back. I always liked your videos man, hope you keep at it and good work.

You can clean up the code in two important ways: firstly, use atan2 instead of atan like this angle# = ATan2(MouseY()-tankY, MouseX()-tankX) with that you can remove the "corrections" section :) secondly, always use cos with x and sin with y ;set shells mx value sh\mx = Cos(angle) ;set shells my value sh\my = Sin(angle) and ;Draw line for tank turret Line tankX,tankY,tankX+20*Cos(angle­),tankY+20*Sin(angle) I first learned programming this kind of stuff in blitz, good memories

Yaaay!! Back :)

[KillerClunge]

Wow you are back - ACE!!

[MarkoLaizc]

what if you are using API where in drawing command you have only one place to put number of degree. example: al_draw_rotated_bitmap(*bitmap­, pos_x, pos_y, rotplace_x, rotplace_y, DEGREE, flag); ?

[amcadam26]

@MarkoLaizc which API do you mean? degree probab ly just wants a figure between 0 and 360. But not knowing which API this is I'm not sure

[anidude98]
