Yea, no restrictions

I have made some progress. Better stop for lunch. I have a spaceship zooming around the screen with a inertia style movement (like asteroids) and bouncing off the screen edges.

I initially got caught out by ACLS which I was calling after xscreen. Note to self - don't do that! (resets the screen size to a default)

Weee, floaty

Yeah, ACLS does more or less what NEW does, except it leaves your code intact.
It also cleans out your spritesheet, too, so watch for that.
Call it once at the top, then avoid at all costs!

GCLS for the Graphics layer, SPCLS for the sprites, and just CLS for the text layer.

Have you used SPCOL and SPHITSP? Seems to have problems, possibly.

If I use SPHOME to set the centre of the sprites, the SPHITSP does not take this into account.

I was hoping collisions would be pixel perfect but it is rectangular overlapping. There is a parameter taking in a 32 bit number for a mask but no idea what these 32 bits are supposed to represent?

What have you done for collisions? Created your own tests?

Hmmm ok, The mask is simply another filter to include or exclude a collision check. $H10000000 and $HF0000000 masks on different objects will cause a collision. $H10000000 and $H00F00000 will not. The two numbers bits are AND'd together and if the result is 0 then no collision test is done. So not helpful for improving the collision precision of anything like that. Guess I will have to do a distance check or something to get a nicer hit box and something that will work.

BTW this is my set up code ...

spset 0, 0
sphome 0, 8,8
spcol 0, 1 ' tried 1 and 0 for this

spset 1,1
sphome 1, 8,8
spcol 1, 1


then

if sphitsp(0, 1,100) then print "HIT" ' assume I am checking collisions for sprites 1 to 100 with sprite 0 - but same if just a one-on-one check etc

Found the culprit.

I'm using SPANIM to animate the sprite frames. SPANIM 1, "I", 3,2, 3,3, 3,4, 0 ' delay 3 for each frame, displaying frames 2,3,4 and looping infinitely.

I know SPANIM can be used to animate positions, scale, rotation and other things too, so I guess even though I only ask for the sprite frames to be changed, it is reseting the others to their defaults - maybe.

Take SPANIM out and the collision boxes are correct at least.

Haven't used Anims at all, and have only used inbuilt collisions when I wrote my tutorials in the past few weeks!

SPDef, Set, Color, Rot, Scale..
I draw it all, per frame.
I have a rather unoptimised "DrawImg" command that splats "sprites" onto the screen, then at the end of the frame, it cleans out anything beyond that.
Messy as hell.

But it copes admirably!

For collisions, I'm sticking with bounding boxes and the like.

SmileBASIC has been temporarily removed from the eShop.. omg!!!

Apparently something to do with the rating. Should be back soon.

Maybe the ratings board realised you could draw a cock in the image editor, or something??!

Space Clusters

Shoot away the baddies, but watch out for the debris!

Screenshots
 

4V3S8NDXF


A good old fashioned shoot-em-up, with a couple of powerups to boot.
This is a redux of previous Space Clusters games, but with the added benefit of powerups.
There's also a two player mode in there, too!

Poke 5,n

Poke the tiles to win the level!

4N3X833SY


Poke five of the tiles, so that the play grid ends up being identical to the target grid.
A simple enough puzzle with baffling complexity as the game progresses.

Those that missed it, before the whole "review/removal" issue, will be happy to know it should be back on Thursday (18th)

Eh? What happened? SB4 removed temporarily?

Something happened at the ratings board. Apparently it was something like...
One of the included games should've boosted the age rating up a teensy bit.
If the game were "you have to download it" it wouldn't have changed the rating, but because it was included, the rating should've been higher, but the rating board hadn't originally included it, and then got a bit shirty once they realised.

Quite frankly, it's a dumb reason.. but SB4s been unavailable to buy new, for the past few weeks.

(Or, as I keep telling people.. somebody realised you could type Print "My giant nob", so they took it down!!)

Doing too many things at once, this week, in that "Nothing's actually getting done" sort of way.
Still, at least I managed to get an update for the above HERO clone done. (Same SBKey)

Since the game gives you infinite TNT (I wasn't sure the rock-generation was stable enough to limit the TNT!) I've instead made the laser-eye-shooty thing a limited "overheat" thing.
It's balanced the game up quite a lot!
I'm now trying to rewrite the game for Browsercade, so look out for that in a few days, if I ever get to do it in amongst having to write something else in SmileBASIC, and I've also not done an ALChoon for this week, either.
Arrgh, giving myself too much to do, again!!

In a recent tweet, Notohoho suggests that

a stand-alone sales environment for Smile BASIC works has also been set up. Expand program slots and graphic pages by blocking subs and UI. Operation check is OK on Windows. Nintendo Switch developer registration is required to use. I wonder if I can tell you the details in the near future ...[/url]
