Does include links to apps by Dan Russell-Pinson in the Google Play Appstore.I'm a relatively new programmer attempting to create a simple 2d fighter for fun using the SFML 2 library.
As a game with interaction dependent on what the character is doing, using a state system seems to be the way to go. If (sf::Keyboard::isKeyPressed(controls.Up)) My question is, what is the best way to go about this? Currently I have something like this: switch (playerstate)Įlse if (sf::Keyboard::isKeyPressed(controls.Up))Įlse if (sf::Keyboard::isKeyPressed(controls.Down))Įlse if (sf::Keyboard::isKeyPressed(controls.Right))Įlse if (sf::Keyboard::isKeyPressed(controls.Left)) I've been trying to incorporate a finite state machine. Which as you can see, there is a lot of repetition and a lot of code. Am I approaching this the wrong way? Should I instead have each control be a case instead and branch from there? Any help is appreciated! I haven't even incorporated using different attacks yet (I'm going to have a variety of these). You should not have if-statements nor case-statements at least not nearly so many. The immediate problem is that you're hard-coding a bunch of logic where a data-driven approach would work better. What you have here on first glance is a state graph (or a finite state machine). Rebuilding this as a state graph with inputs triggering transitions would be a first pass "cleanup". State moving_left = machine.createState() State moving_right = machine.createState() e.g., once you have a state graph runtime, even your hardcoded logic becomes much simpler: state idle = machine.createState() The second pass then is to move all the specifics into separate logic or data. You can also support hierarchical graphs so e.g. your attacks can be their own state graphs independent of moving. With scripting or some other binding system, this can also easily become a data file. Data files are nice because you don't have to recompile to test changes. If you have hot reload support you can even tweak your data while playing the game, which really speeds up the development process. I hope, with your support, I can test more apps and share back with everyone.The data then can map to your animation system, giving you controls on animation loops for states or for animations to play on transitions. The cost is the same to you, but iGameMom receives a small percentage.

Stack the states for pc free#
Earn FREE bonus games: Pile Up, Puzzler, and Capital Drop.Collect all 50 states and track your progress on a personalized map.As more states are added, three bonus games, Pile Up!, Puzzler and Capital Drop, are unlocked. If the player reaches the finish line with 60 percent or more correct answers, he earns one of the 50 states to add to his map. The goal is to stack enough states to reach the checkered finish line, but with all the irregular shaped state puzzles, the stacking can easily go wrong and the stacked states go tumbling. In the game, the player is asked a question (identification, capital, national landmarks, etc.) and if they choose the correct answer from four multiple-choice options they can use that state for their stack. With this app, kids will learn about capitals, state shapes, and map locations with animated states that stack, drop, tumble, and slide around like puzzle pieces. I did some search on apps teach geography. Pretty soon, kids will start spring break.
