Trigonometry? Lol I feel so alienated with my "L337" Algebra 1 skills hehe. Actually thouhg I'm taking it a second year so I should be in Geometry.
|
It's made by giving the the illusion your in a 3D game maze, but it is just a bunch of icons bunched together really well to look like 3d... As far as I know. He might not have even used icons if BYOND allows that.
|
I have the blue book and it doesn't help that at all... He has a very unique and superior skill at coding, and he does know trigonometry.
I have been coding for close to a year more than him, yet his skills far surpass mine. That is unless he was someone that got a new key (Only person that I could think of that he might be an alternative key for that is a huge guru is Theodis.). |
Ohhh, so THAT'S how you did it! I thought you used a full sight algorithm to draw them, checking everything in a 4-sided-pyramid shape going straight out from right in front of the player. I knew there was some hacky way you did it that cut down on processor time. =P
|
I don't know OFD very well, but he doesn't seem like Theodis, because from what ive seen ontthe forums of his coding, he doesnt use C++ brackets like theodis.

Theodis isn't OneFishDown. I've known Theodis for a while now, and they act radically different. I don't know whats with all this paranoia lately...</denial>

Saying OFD is theodis is just plain stupid, why not say he is English, he knows a lot of advanceed maths, or even better OneFishDown is ... Lummox JR why just look at the ellipses thread to prove that there know-how of maths is byond the average.
of course, OFD could be Maz, I mean he is trying to dissuade you from thinkning hes any of his other keys. |

We are all really bots created by Tom, to inhabit his virtual world of game design. Hello, maz.dm. |
why hello mr alatho.azoot how be you today on this fine day like time? are your vital functions working correctly and how is that troublesome Garthor proc running, no loops i presume?
|
I learned what little c++ I know after I learned DM. If I used braces in my BYOND coding it would've been from what Java I know, not c++.
I am not Theodis, Lummox, English, or Maz (though I do like math). I don't have 'The Blue Book'. Click here to download the icons from the maze program. The "normal" icons in there are for use on the map editor only. |
I forget the specifics of it, but I think the view is 120 pixels wide. Your field of vision is 60 degrees wide, 1 pixel per degree. You use a for loop to sweep your field of vision, and move outwards from the player in each of those 60 directions until you hit a wall. You know the distance to the wall, and from that you can determine how tall the wall should appear.
