  • enemy behavior with boundary to change direction

    - by BadSniper
    I'm doing space shooter kind of game, the logic is to reflect the enemy if it hits the boundary. With my logic, sometimes enemy behaves like flickering instead of changing the velocity. It's like trapped in the boundary and checking for if loops. This is my code for velocity changing: if(this->enemyPos.x>14) { this->enemyVel.x = -this->enemyVel.x; } if(this->enemyPos.x<-14) { this->enemyVel.x = -this->enemyVel.x; } How can I get around this? Its going out of boundary and don't know where to go and after sometimes its coming into field. I know whats the problem is, I dont know how to get around this problem.

  • How to make a player stay within bounds of world with 2D Camera

    - by Craig
    Im creating a simple top down survival game. At the moment, i have the sprite which is a ship and moves by rotating left or right then going forward in that direction. I have implemented a 2D camera, its always centered on the player. However, when i move towards the bounds of the world that the sprite is in it just keeps on going :( How to i sort it that it stops at the edge of the world and cant go beyond it?

  • Should I use float, double, or decimal for stats, position, etc?

    - by Ryan Peschel
    The problem with float and double is that they are not exact. If you are to do something like store replays, the values would have to be exact. The problems with decimal is that they are approximately 16x slower (confirmed by searching and personal testing) than floats and doubles. Couldn't Vector2s be another problem because they use floats internally for all the components? How do other games solve this problem? I'm sure they must use floats and doubles but aren't they not deterministic across platforms and different architecture? The replay files for games like SC2 run in a linear fashion so you cannot skip ahead so how do they solve the determinism issue with floating point numbers?

  • Logarithmic spacing of FFT subbands

    - by Mykel Stone
    I'm trying to do the examples within the GameDev.net Beat Detection article ( http://archive.gamedev.net/archive/reference/programming/features/beatdetection/index.html ) I have no issue with performing a FFT and getting the frequency data and doing most of the article. I'm running into trouble though in the section 2.B, Enhancements and beat decision factors. in this section the author gives 3 equations numbered R10-R12 to be used to determine how many bins go into each subband: R10 - Linear increase of the width of the subband with its index R11 - We can choose for example the width of the first subband R12 - The sum of all the widths must not exceed 1024 He says the following in the article: "Once you have equations (R11) and (R12) it is fairly easy to extract 'a' and 'b', and thus to find the law of the 'wi'. This calculus of 'a' and 'b' must be made manually and 'a' and 'b' defined as constants in the source; indeed they do not vary during the song." However, I cannot seem to understand how these values are calculated...I'm probably missing something simple, but learning fourier analysis in a couple of weeks has left me Decimated-in-Mind and I cannot seem to see it.

  • segmentation fault using scanf

    noob question here: I'm trying to write a simple menu interface, but I keep getting a segmentation fault error and I can't figure out why. #include <stdlib.h> #include <stdio.h> int flush(); int add(char *name, char *password, char *type); int delete(char *name); int edit(char *name, char *password, char *type, char *newName, char *newPassword, char *newType); int verify(char *name, char *password); int menu(){ int input; char *name, *password, *type, *newName, *newPassword, *newType; printf("MAIN MENU \n ============\n"); printf("1.

  • troubleshooting steps for site that requires refresh to load

    - by user1691389
    How does one troubleshoot a site that loads sometimes, but then requires a reload at other times... sometimes it loads, sometimes it hangs and a refresh is required, sometimes more than once. What would you do in this situation? I'm just looking for basic troubleshooting steps to start me going in the right direction. In the meantime I'll be poking around in Chrome's "Inspect Element" but if there's specific things I should look at first let me know.

  • best way to make this app/website combo?

    - by mharris7190
    I have an idea for an app that lets different bars upload drink specials via a webpage to that app. They would log in the website, and the website would prompt them with a box to input the drink specials. When they are done, the app pulls the information and creates a card for that bar. The app would launch into a week view where you select the day you want to see specials for. After the day is selected, it brings you to a scroll view with different bars' cards laid out vertically, each taking up the width of the screen, allowing the user to scroll through the deals for that day of the week. How should I go about doing this if I have very little programming experience? Is there any convention in doing an app like this? Can anyone suggest any reading material that would help? Thank you!

  • Drop down list in menu disappears before able to click

    - by user1834770
    I've had quite a search through forums looking for a solution for this, but since I don't know coding I'm not sure what applies to me and what doesn't. So, apologies if this is an often solved problem, but I'll greatly appreciate your help! After much trial and error, I've managed to get a drop down list of pages on my navigation bar; however, when I go to click on a sub-page, the entire menu disappears. I've read through other similar problems where there has been an issue with a margin that's too big, but I think my margins are set to '0'. The blog is at: http://swirlstwirlsblog.blogspot.com.au/ I haven't got content in the sub pages but there are there and linked in the html/javascript widget. I've also looked at it in Chrome, Mozilla, and Safari and it's the same issue. I'm also not sure if this is a javascript, css, or html problem, so please be kind in your responses--I'm only new! Thanks so much to anyone able to help me on this.

  • nicely display file rename history in git log

    - by Jian
    The git command git log --format='%H' --follow -- foo.txt will give you the series of commits that touch foo.txt, following it across renames. I'm wondering if there's a git log command that will also print the corresponding historical file name beside each commit. It would be something like this, where we can interpret '%F' to be the (actually non-existent) placeholder for filename. git log --format='%H %F' --follow -- foo.txt I know this could be accomplished with git log --format='%H' --follow --numstat -- foo.txt but the output is not ideal since it requires some non-trivial parsing; each commit is strewn across multiple lines, and you'll still need to parse the file rename syntax ("bar.txt => foo.txt") to find what you're looking for.

  • Python 2.7 creating a multidimensional list

    - by poop
    I don't know why I am having so much trouble creating a 3 dimensional list. I need the program to create an empty n by n list. So for n = 4: x = [[[],[],[],[]],[[],[],[],[]],[[],[],[],[]],[[],[],[],[]]] I've tried using: y = [n*[n*[]]] y = [[[]]* n for i in range(n)] Which both appear to be creating copies of a reference. I've also tried naieve application of the list builder with little success: y = [[[]* n for i in range(n)]* n for i in range(n)] y = [[[]* n for i in range(1)]* n for i in range(n)] I've also tried building up the array iteratively using loops, with no success. In my rapid flurry of attempts to not post something stupidly easy to SO, I came upon a solution: y = [] for i in range(0,n): y.append([[]*n for i in range(n)]) Is there an easier/ more intuitive way of doing this?

  • XStream noclassdeffound error

    I am attempting to run Xstream in a netbeans proof of concept project. I have the following code. XStream xstream = new XStream(); FileOutputStream fis = new FileOutputStream("Test.xml"); xstream.toXML(company, fis); The program is crashing on the first line of code with the following error.

Any other possible thing that would cause java not to recognize the Xstream class at runtime even though it is fine at compile time? Thanks Jimmy

Full code is available here https://gist.github.com/4108950/e984a581d5e9de889eaf0c8faf0e57752e825a97 I believe it has something to do with ant, target name="run" description="run the project"> java dir="${build.dir}" classname="BinarySearchTree" fork="yes"> <arg value="6 in.txt"/> /java> /target> the arg value will be changed via the -D flag, as in ant -Dargs="6 testData1.txt" run. Any help would be much appreciated, it is very frustrating.

  • Parallel MySQL queries for HTML table - WHILE(x or y)?

    - by Beti Chode
    I'm trying to create a table using PHP. What I need is a table with two columns. So I have an SQL table with 4 fields - primary key id, language, word and definition. The language for each is either Arabic or Russian. I want a table that does the following: | defintion | |____________________| | | | rus1 | arab1 | | rus2 | arab2 | | rus3 | arab3 | | rus4 | | So it divides the list by English word, creates a for each English word, then lists Russian equivalents in the left column and Arabic in the right. However there are often not the same number for both. What I am doing right now is running a WHILE loop in a WHILE loop. The outer loop is running fine but I think I am doing the inner loop wrong. Here is the bulk of the code: $definitions=mysql_query("SELECT DISTINCT definition FROM words") WHILE($row=mysql_fetch_array($definitions) { ECHO '<tr><th colspan="2">' . $row['definition'] . '</th></tr>'; $russian="SELECT * FROM words WHERE language='Russian' AND definition='".$row['definition']."'"; $arabic="SELECT * FROM words WHERE language='Arabic' AND definition='".$row['definition']."'"; WHILE($rus=mysql_fetch_array($russian) or $arb=mysql_fetch_array($arabic)) { ECHO '<tr><td>'.$rus['word'].'</td><td>'.$arb['word'].'</td></tr>'; } } Sadly I am getting soemthing like this: | defintion | |____________________| | | | rus1 | | | rus2 | | | rus3 | | | rus4 | | | | arab1 | | | arab2 | | | arab3 | Not sure what other way I can do this? I tried changing the or to || thinking the different precedence would cause another outcome, but then I get ONLY the Russian column. I'm out of ideas, you guys are my only hope!

  • File name containing more than 16 characters inside parentheses failing

    - by Tom anMoney
    I am generating file names that contain a timestamp in the following format: "base_name (yyyy-mm-dd hhmmss).ext" This seems to cause a problem on Android. Here's my log: /storage/sdcard0/anMoney/transfer/Net worth over time _ Forecast (2012-11-19 110550).pdf E/Gmail (11802): java.io.FileNotFoundException: /storage/sdcard0/myapp/transfer/Net worth over time _ Forecast (2012-11-19 110550).pdf: open failed: ENOENT (No such file or directory) E/Gmail (11802): at libcore.io.IoBridge.open(IoBridge.java:416) E/Gmail (11802): at java.io.FileInputStream.<init>(FileInputStream.java:78) E/Gmail (11802): at java.io.FileInputStream.<init>(FileInputStream.java:105) E/Gmail (11802): at android.content.ContentResolver.openInputStream(ContentResolver.java:445) E/Gmail (11802): at com.google.android.gm.provider.MailEngine.cacheAttachment(MailEngine.java:3054) E/Gmail (11802): at com.google.android.gm.provider.MailEngine.sendOrSaveDraft(MailEngine.java:2746) E/Gmail (11802): at com.google.android.gm.provider.MailProvider.sendOrSaveDraft(MailProvider.java:477) E/Gmail (11802): at com.google.android.gm.provider.MailProvider.insert(MailProvider.java:534) E/Gmail (11802): at android.content.ContentProvider$Transport.insert(ContentProvider.java:201) E/Gmail (11802): at android.content.ContentResolver.insert(ContentResolver.java:864) E/Gmail (11802): at com.google.android.gm.provider.Gmail$MessageModification.sendOrSaveNewMessage(Gmail.java:3576) E/Gmail (11802): at com.google.android.gm.ComposeActivity$SendOrSaveTask$1.onInitializationComplete(ComposeActivity.java:1765) E/Gmail (11802): at com.google.android.gm.provider.MailEngine$5.run(MailEngine.java:1006) E/Gmail (11802): at android.os.Handler.handleCallback(Handler.java:615) E/Gmail (11802): at android.os.Handler.dispatchMessage(Handler.java:92) E/Gmail (11802): at android.os.Looper.loop(Looper.java:137) E/Gmail (11802): at android.os.HandlerThread.run(HandlerThread.java:60) E/Gmail (11802): Caused by: libcore.io.ErrnoException: open failed: ENOENT (No such file or directory) Now, if I trim the file name to have only 16 characters within the parentheses, everything is working as expected. I am able to send the file as a GMail attachment. The following file name is working fine: /storage/sdcard0/myapp/transfer/Net worth over time _ Forecast (2012-11-19 11070).pdf I tried the following troubleshooting: It's not the overall length of the file name, as if I shorten the base name, the same behavior remains It's not GMail, uploading the file to Google Drive fails similarly 16 characters inside the parentheses work, but not 17 It's not the space character inside the parentheses that causes the issue, as I replaced it with a dash and it's the same problem. Anybody has any ideas on what's going on here?

  • jQuery can't get if statement to work

    - by jstacks
    I'm looking help with an If Statement. I'm trying to finalize this horizontal scrolling I have and the last bit is to not just disable scrolling when the end is reached, but to also disable (well, change color) the scroll buttons at that point as well. And change back when they are scrollable again. http://jsfiddle.net/stfzy/83/ EDIT* I've updated the JQuery and have everything working except just one if statement: $('div#arrowL').click(function(){ if(index < 0 ){ //can't scroll $('div#arrowL').addClass('active'); } }); I need to add this class back when you can't scroll left anymore. And I think the issue is with the "index < 0" portion but I don't see what I need to change it to to get it to work. Any help is appreciated.

  • Counting the number of occurrences of characters in an array

    - by Anthony Pittelli
    This is what I have but it is not working, this is confusing for me. If you scroll down I commented on someones post the exact problem I am having and what I am trying to do. I was thinking maybe the problem is my code to generate the random characters: public void add (char fromChar, char toChar){ Random r = new Random(); //creates a random object int randInt; for (int i=0; i<charArray.length; i++){ randInt = r.nextInt((toChar-fromChar) +1); charArray[i] = (char) randInt; //casts these integers as characters } }//end add public int[] countLetters() { int[] count = new int[26]; char current; for (int b = 0; b <= 26; b++) { for (int i = 97; i <= 123; i++) { char a = (char) i; for (int ch = 0; ch < charArray.length; ch++) { current = charArray[ch]; if (current == a) { count[b]++; } } } } return count; }

  • Get last clicked item id

    - by Peeter Kõbu
    I have function like this: $(document).ready(function () { $("*").click(function () { alert($(this).attr('id').toString()); }); }); And on Page i have something like this: <asp:Content ID="BodyContent" runat="server" ContentPlaceHolderID="MainContent"> <script language="javascript" src="Scripts/jquery-1.4.1.js" type="text/javascript"></script> <div id="div1">Some stuff <div id="div2">Some other stuff <asp:Button ID="Button1" runat="server" Text="Button" /> <div id="div3">More stuff <asp:Button ID="Button2" runat="server" Text="Button" /> </div> </div> </div> If i click something it works fine, but it alerts me three times(or more). For example: I click button2. Alertbox appears with button2.id, then with div3.id, div2.id etc. It shows me all id's under that button. If i try to store this id to variable like this: var storedId = $(this).attr('id').toString(); it stores the last one.That means i get the id of form1. How can i get the first id? The id of clicked button or clicked label or whatever i have on my page.

  • javax.servlet.ServletException: WriteText method cannot write null text

    - by Learner
    I have created a Web application using JSF+Icefaces+Richfaces+Primefaces.It is working great while I run it from eclipse as a project but When I created its WAR file and deployed in GlassFish Server then while rendering a page it is throwing this exception javax.servlet.ServletException: WriteText method cannot write null text I searched but didn't get any good solution.A quick help is highly appreciated Edit:1 I think this would be the relevant part for this <li class="page_item" id="liMasterSearch"> <!-- this is for hide (<li class="page_item hide" id="liMasterSearch"> applied to every class) --> <h:commandLink value="Search" action="#{masterRenderBean.showSimpleSearch}"></h:commandLink> </li> <li class="page_item" id="liAdvanceSearch"> <h:commandLink value="Advance Search" action="#{masterRenderBean.showADVS}"></h:commandLink> </li> Here you can see two links (1) Search and (2) Advance Search when I click on Search , It shows search page (By rendering-Actually I have included all pages in masterpage and render them on commandlink functions) <h:panelGroup rendered="#{not masterRenderBean.simpleSearch}"> <ui:include src="../../WebPages/SearchPages/MasterSearch.xhtml"></ui:include> </h:panelGroup> But When I click on Advance Search link (on which this part should render) <h:panelGroup rendered="#{not masterRenderBean.advs}"> <ui:include src="../../WebPages/SearchPages/PersonalAdvanceSearch.xhtml"/> </h:panelGroup> The browser show the above exception. NOTE: Keep in mind that this problem is occurring in deploying.It is not coming in actual application when I run it from eclipse from code EDIT:2 I found in server logs that this exception is coming due to acefaces and this portion of code <ace:autoCompleteEntry id="txtplaceofbirth" rows="10" autocomplete="false" minChars="2" width="150" value="#{inputPersonal.selectedplcofBirth}" filterMatchMode="none" valueChangeListener="#{inputPersonal.valueChangeEventCity}"> <f:selectItems value="#{inputPersonal.cities}"/> </ace:autoCompleteEntry></h:outputFormat> is messing up.Any idea Why this is hapening?

  • Easiest way to submit data via PHP?

    - by Abijah
    I'm new to PHP, and have spent 10 hours trying to figure this problem out. The goal is to take all data entered into this order form, and send it to my email via PHP. I have 2 questions: 1. I can get PHP to send data from a single menu item (example: Mexican Tortas), but how do I get PHP to send data from multiple items (example: Mexican Tortas, Fish Sandwich and Hamburger)? 2. How do I tell PHP to not send data from menu items that don't have the "How Many?" or "Customize It?" text fields filled out? If you could provide a super simple example (or a link to a learning resource) I would really appreciate it. Thank you, Abijah PHP <?php if(isset($_POST['submit'])) { $to = "[email protected]"; $subject = "New Order"; $name_field = $_POST['name']; $phone_field = $_POST['phone']; $item = $_POST['item']; $quantity = $_POST['quantity']; $customize = $_POST['customize']; } $body = "Name: $name_field\nPhone: $phone_field\n\nItem: $item\nQuantity: $quantity\nCustomize: $customize"; echo "Data has been submitted to $to!"; mail($to, $subject, $body); ?> HTML <form action="neworder.php" method="POST"> <div class ="item"> <img style="float:left; margin-right:15px; border:1px Solid #000; width:200px; height:155px;" src="images/mexicantortas.jpg"> <h1>Mexican Torta - $8.50</h1> <input name="item" type="hidden" value="Mexican Torta"/> <h2>How Many? <font color="#999999">Ex: 1, 2, 3...?</font></h2> <input name="quantity" type="text"/> <h3>Customize It? <font color="#999999">Ex: No Lettuce, Extra Cheese...</font></h3> <textarea name="customize"/></textarea> </div><!-- ITEM_LEFT --> <div class ="item"> <img style="float:left; margin-right:15px; border:1px Solid #000; width:200px; height:155px;" src="images/fishsandwich.jpg"> <h1>Fish Sandwich - $8.50</h1> <input name="item" type="hidden" value="Fish Sandwich"/> <h2>How Many? <font color="#999999">Ex: 1, 2, 3...?</font></h2> <input name="quantity" type="text"/> <h3>Customize It? <font color="#999999">Ex: No Lettuce, Extra Cheese...</font></h3> <textarea name="customize"/></textarea> </div><!-- ITEM_LEFT --> <div class ="item"> <img style="float:left; margin-right:15px; border:1px Solid #000; width:200px; height:155px;" src="images/hamburgers.jpg"> <h1>Hamburger w/ Fries - $7.00</h1> <input name="item" type="hidden" value="Fish Sandwich"/> <h2>How Many? <font color="#999999">Ex: 1, 2, 3...?</font></h2> <input name="quantity" type="text"/> <h3>Customize It? <font color="#999999">Ex: No Lettuce, Extra Cheese...</font></h3> <textarea name="customize"/></textarea> </div><!-- ITEM_LEFT --> <div class="horizontal_form"> <div class="form"> <h2>Place Your Order Now: <font size="3"><font color="#037B41">Fill in the form below, and we'll call you when your food is ready to be picked up...</font></font></h2> <p class="name"> <input type="text" name="name" id="name" style="text-align:center;" onClick="this.value='';" value="Enter your name"/> </p> <p class="phone"> <input type="text" name="phone" id="phone" style="text-align:center;" onClick="this.value='';" value="Enter your phone #"/> </p> <p class="submit"> <input type="submit" value="Place Order" name="submit"/> </p> </div><!-- FORM --> </div><!-- HORIZONTAL_FORM --> </form>

  • How to define custom exception class in Java, the easiest way?

    I'm trying to define my own exception class the easiest way, and this is what I'm getting: public class MyException extends Exception {} public class Foo { public bar() throws MyException { throw new MyException("try again please"); } } This is what Java compiler says: cannot find symbol: constructor MyException(java.lang.String) I had a feeling that this constructor has to be inherited from java.lang.Exception, isn't it?
