ok i am back and working on a... rougelike in c++! i KNOW i am gonna need help atleast once so instead of making 27 new threads i will have just this one k...
i will be using conio for input and also for good old gotoxy (sorta reminds me of qbasic)) and colours, i am using BCC55 for my compiler and unfourently windows vista...

ok queeestioooonn nuuuumber 1:
not really a question but can you guys give me some ideas for random dungeon creation?

thought of another(well didnt i had a problem)
how would i do collision detection? i have thought about it but the only solution i can think of is to make the floors as arrays then then when moving do a caculation to see where you are located in the array and then when you move tests if where you are is a wall and if so backup and so on so yeah...those are the hardf questions
do evreything in large multi dem arrays
p.s. whats with your codename? it burns when i pee hehehethanks and i dont know a friend was watching xplay i think and i heard them say that then the DAY after i regestired here so yeah lolyou create a type that descripes your object
and then crate an array of those objects
such as
Code: [Select]typedef mytype {
int x,y;
UNSIGNED char color
};
mytype a[100];
a[0].x = 10;
a[0].y = 10;
a[0].color = 1;
just an ideaok i have been tring to deal with this for a while, basically this is what happens when i press up i go left and down i go right, then when i press left or right it makes me jump, other then that no real problems, and i cant figure it out with te debugger... here is the code so far, very very sloppy...
Code: [Select]#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <conio.h>

using namespace std;

string INPT; //used for getting input
string map[82][24]; //the map
int fx; //future x
int fy; //future y
int x; //x
int y; //y
int px; //previous x
int py; //previous y
int hp;
int str;
int dex;
int def;
int loop; //used in while loop
string it; //used for storing tile on preveiosly
string nit; //next it
string test; //used for collision testing

void mapinit() // gives a value to the map
{
for (int nx = 1; nx < 81; nx++) {
for (int ny = 1; ny < 23; ny++){
map[nx][ny] = ".";
};
};
}

void prnt() // used for printing map
{
gotoxy(1, 1);
for (int nx = 1; nx < 81; nx++) {
for (int ny = 1; ny < 23; ny++){
cout << map[nx][ny];
};
};
}

int main()
{
it = "."; // sets it
mapinit();
loop = 1;
map[22][22] = "#"; //# = wall
x = 21;
y = 22;
fx = x;
fy = y;
px = x--;
py = y;
while (loop == 1) {
map[x][y] = "@"; // displays dude
map[px][py] = it; // covers up where you walked before
system("CLS");
prnt();
it = nit;
inpt = getch(); //gets input
if (inpt == "H") { //up
fy--;
}
else if (inpt == "P") { //down
fy++;
}
else if (inpt == "K") { //left
fx--;
}
else if (inpt == "M") { //right
fx++;
}
test = map[fx][fy]; //tests where you are attempting to go
if (test == "#") {
fx = x;
fy = y;
}
if (test == ".") {
nit = ".";
}
px = x;
py = y;
x = fx;
y = fy;
};
return(0);
}the code is fairly sound
but why are you using the map of type (class) string
because that should make it a triple demitinoal array
and that is just wasting memory
try
char map[82][24];
also
for sprite colisions try just searching one tick ahead on the map
