Moola Invites!

[Swamp7hing]

Sounds great! Want an invite for Moola gan?

P.S. There is a way to make the engine scrollable. Load 5 separate maps at one time and have the map coord. offset by the other maps. I'm going to see if I can create it in vb.net. You don't really have to change the engine, just have it run 5 times for all 5 maps.

I am trying to understand what you are asking. Are you trying to make it load bigger maps?

What's a Moola?

Yes, but not only that, this will make the maps scrollable and keep the character centered in the middle of the screen.

Read the first post lol.

[Gan]

I'm not sure. Maybe I will try it later, but am kind of busy. Does it need any personal info?

Yes, you'll see when you get the invite.

This site checks out too. PC World's top 15 places to spend time on the internet. If you want an invite, PM me with your email.

OK this is how it is done in GM

Code: [Select]

'  Gridlayout$ is the grid
Gridlayout$ = "long stuff that tell what are walls and what aren't
Gridlayout2$ = "additional stuff that was inserted incase original Gridlayout exceeded 255 characters"
Gridlayout3$ etc.
'now I am going on the basis that all the squares are 48 x 48 so this
'is how is is coded for them. We are going to have a grid size thats is 
'40 x 40 squares.

ON KEYDOWN
IF keydown$ = "UPARROW" THEN manV = manV - 1
IF keydown$ = "DOWNARROW" THEN manV = manV + 1
IF keydown$ = "LEFTARROW" THEN manH = manH - 1
IF keydown$ = "RIGHTARROW" THEN manH = manH + 1
checknumber = manV * 40
checknumber = checknumber - 40
checknumber = checknumber + manH
setcheck$ = Gridlayout$
IF checknumber > 255 THEN
  setcheck$ = Gridlayout2$
  checknumber = checknumber - 255
END IF
IF checknumber > 255 THEN
  setcheck$ = Gridlayout3$
  checknumber = checknumber - 255
END IF
'etc
check$ = MID$ setcheck$ checknumber 1
IF check$ = "1" THEN
  IF keydown$ = "UPARROW" THEN manV = manV + 1
  IF keydown$ = "DOWNARROW" THEN manV = manV - 1
  IF keydown$ = "LEFTARROW" THEN manH = manH + 1
  IF keydown$ = "RIGHTARROW" THEN manH = manH - 1
ELSE
  IF keydown$ = "UPARROW" THEN worldY = worldY + 48
  IF keydown$ = "DOWNARROW" THEN worldY = worldY - 48
  IF keydown$ = "LEFTARROW" THEN worldX = worldX + 48
  IF keydown$ = "RIGHTARROW" THEN worldX = worldX - 48
END IF

END KEYDOWN

This is a really simple way of doing it. Just change the 48 based on how big your squares are and the 40 based on how many squares there are across.

So, did anyone actually accept the invite?

[Tireas Dragon]

I wouldn't count on it.

[WarHampster]

I meant to, Moola is on my list of things to get into.

[Swamp7hing]

Alright.

$6.00 current balance atm btw, haven't had a ton of time on Moola. They brought out some new functionality, and it's still a great site. Plan on playing more today.

[Swamp7hing]

Is anyone actually going to sign up lol?  

[WarHampster]

I completely forgot  

I'll do it soon.

[Gan]

Too busy with Avisaria. Recoding it, and am getting really far. No bugs so far! Woohoo!

I take it everyone's ditched this, regardless, I cashed out for $10 and have been approved, so I'll get the cheque soon.
