Ok, good move -- that wasn't too painful
I'm working a bunch on my game during my free time, when it gets to some alpha/beta playable state, I'll get up a forum and SVN here for it. |

-------------- New Features ---------------------------------------------------------
1. I added another feature to sprite so you can now move the sprite based on a velocity vector which can be calulated from the angle the sprite is facing.
2. With font the function to draw it now looks like....
font.draw(x,y,r,g,b,a,...);
the ... means that you can use any mix of arguments you font for the text, such as...
font.draw(x,y,r,g,b,a,"Player Score is ", score, '.");
--------------- Asteroids ---------------------------------------
I commited my asteroids code, this means I just need to finish writing my asteroids tutorial for Arc and make my asteroids code and small and precise as possible, you can follow it's my tutorials progress here http://dmedia.dprogramming.com/Tutorials/ArcAsteroids . The tutorial will help Arc newcomer's how to program their games, and as a way for me to weed out hacks and get things somewhat nice and tested before I do a release. |

Ahhh! Now I must begin the lengthy process of changing all my font.draws -- But it sounds like it is for the better
[ edit ] what is so wrong with doing this, which I'm currently doing:
draw( "Score: " ~ std.string.toString(score) , ... )
[ edit2 ] Can you keep the draw() you had before, becuase I don't need to call all that formatstring() and toUTF8 stuff currently, and I don't want to change all my functions over so I have to call that stuff. You should have the original draw(char[] ... ) be the main function, but have the draw(x,y, ..., ... ) function format a string, and then call draw(char[]...) with the formatting string (at the programmers option)
[ edit3 ] I did that and updated the SVN |

yay asteroids
are you ever going to get to your WarBots game? I know ArcGames needs to be solid before moving on -- but just curious |

I was actually going to help someone with another ArcGames project before I start WarBots, so I won't be working on WarBots anytime soon now. |
