Am I doing something wrong, or is this a bug?

[Nimono]

I'm not sure if this is a bug or not, so I'll just ask here...

I've been working on a script for Bombs that act like those from the classic Bomberman games, in that the explosions go off in a + pattern, and stop at solid blocks. I've got the skeleton of the bombs down:

The problem? The Bomb never dies when its DeadState is set to 0. The explosion fires seem to vanish at first sight, but then they start cycling through a few combos as THEIR DeadState starts going down to 0. Honestly, I'm hoping it's not a bug with DeadState... Also, on a side note, why are certain values on the way to 0 set aside for specific actions? Wouldn't that, y'know...BREAK THIS THING? Just a thought...

[beefster09]

Try just relocating the bombs just offscreen. Usually, that invalidates them.

BTW: Why don't you use arrays? It would certainly help with the readability of the code.

[Nimono]

I considered using Arrays, but then I remembered that there were some problems using Arrays in certain ways, so I didn't want to risk it.


...Besides, I don't have plans on fully releasing this to the public.

Now, besides this, I have one more problem- The Bomb itself needs to be positioned EXACTLY in the center of a combo. However, I don't know how to do this. Normally, the Bomb would be placed at Link's X and Y positions, and if the combo at that about position is completely solid, like if Link was standing on the top half of the tile below it, it would move the Bomb down 8 pixels. But this alone isn't enough. I need to find a way to check how far from the center of that combo it is, and move it to there depending on how far away it is. What'd help would be a reverse of the function of ComboAt: "(y & 240)+(x>>4)". However, I'm not sure how to reverse that to take a single number and split it into an X position and a Y position

Also, I just tried to have the Bomb moved. For some reason, it still left its graphic behind. I'm assuming this means it's doing something it really shouldn't be doing...like say, creating more than one copy of this Bomb at one time...

[pkmnfrk]

As a first thought, I would look closer at how you load the bomb lweapon. Arbitrarily picking the last lweapon on the screen might work okay, if it's the only lweapon on the screen. Link's sword, other bombs, etc might interfere, though.

Second, arrays would be fine in this case. Much better than that huge mess that takes up more than a page.

Third, the combo number is simply the position of the combo on the screen, starting with the top-left combo, and working its way left, then down. So, it would be 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, ... 13, 14, 15. Then, the next row would be 16, 17, 18 ... 30, 31. And so forth.

Given this information, it's easy to get the X/Y position from the Combo Position:

int cx;
int cy;
int theCombo = 123;

cx = Floor(theCombo % 16); //if we divide theCombo by 16, what's the remainder?
cy = Floor(theCombo / 16);  //in fact, we also want the result of this division!

//cx and cy are the position, measured in tiles.
//in fact, for 123, it's (11, 7)

cx *= 16;
cy *= 16; //now it's measured in pixels.

[Nimono]

Well, the location stuff works now, thanks. Only problem I have left is getting the dang Bomb to vanish, which it should be doing because its position in the lweapon table should remain in the same spot by the time it explodes! I don't do anything to it after it's created until after the explosions are created, and that's just moving it off-screen!

[pkmnfrk]

Well, the best thing to do would be to save a copy of the lweapon pointer, so you don't even have to load it up again! No muss, no fuss!

[Nimono]

Well, the best thing to do would be to save a copy of the lweapon pointer, so you don't even have to load it up again! No muss, no fuss!

What do you mean, save a copy of it? Could you please explain this?

EDIT: Nevermind on that, I figured out why it wasn't working: I redeclared "lweapon" before assigning it- even though I already declared it as an lweapon pointer before all the code and the while loop, to make it a script-wide variable... I removed that extra declaration, and it worked. Now my Bombs vanish when they explode...even when you explode them remotely.

[pkmnfrk]

Oh, good that you figured it out.

What I means was to do something like:

lweapon theBomb;

global script whatever {
  void run() {
    if(we trigger a bomb somehow) {
      theBomb = Screen->CreateLWeapon(LW_BOMB);
      //do whatever with theBomb
    }
  }
}

(PS: post 500)

(You can place six bombs in the full code, but I had to remove things to shrink the size.)

I have added code to allow you to place more than 1 Bomb at once...

When the first Bomb is placed, it explodes fine. Place another after blowing up the first, it works. Place more than one before the first explodes, and all explosions after the first wig out and don't vanish. I don't know why... And I even made arrays to simplify things!

Give me a little bit of time, and I'll look at the script. I will also add more arrays, since your code will benefit from liberal usage.
