Re: feeling codey

Thats more like it! I like seeing users that are into code

What ya gonna use it for?

Re: feeling codey

Code is a foreign language to me. Care to put that into terms that a code n00b what understand?

Re: feeling codey

^_^ i made it as a example code for game maker along time ago. i made a simple game but it was really for people who were going to make a life simulator. perhaps u wanna see the game? not great thou. it was just made simply as an example. But ill upload the exe of it. =P

edit: lol... ok ill do that in a min. (explaining the code.) im gonna upload the exe first. Be warned, the game is really bad. but like i said its just an example. the code is the main part of it.

edit: oh yea... this is the one without graphics... the other one had graphics but wasnt as good as this one. lol but anyway, its still playable if u like to read. =P

Re: feeling codey

No worries man .. no need to go out of the way, just curious

Re: feeling codey

i dont care. lol i got nothing better to do today. =P

edit: here ya all go. enjoy this really bad example. lol

Download life simulator example program.zip

now ill sum up what the code says...

the global.start pretty much sets up variables for the game. bills/time/stats/etc... That is only done once since its set to 1 at the end. (cuz this code is ran continulessly.)

Next is of course the timing. s=sec, m=min, d=day, etc... it checks to see if time is running correctly. like a normal watch/clock.

its kinda seld explainitory from here if u read the comments. (// something here.) But pretty much it drains the players stats every 10 minutes.

Well, read the rest from here. you can understand it if u read the comment lines.

Re: feeling codey

I never knew how much Gamemaker code looks like Java :P

I mean...it looks like it basically IS Java.

**SpoOkyMagician** · 08-23-2007, 10:40 AM

Re: feeling codey

actually... all coding is extremely similar. =\ They just have small diffrences. =\ like vb is like

VISUAL BASIC
dim something as integer = 5

C++
int something = 5;

once you know one language, you pretty much know them all. =s

btw i am taking java next quarter at itt tech. ^_^ cant wait to take this class. =)

but as for game maker, all i know it was programmed in delphi. (which i never used)

which reminds me... I wonder how GM is doing... Ever since they used Yo-Yo Games, i just kinda left from it. I dont like yyg... They messed the GMS up... >.<

edit: oh lol... just realised that this topic was moved. forgot there was a programming section. =P

well anyway, lets see how this would look if i put it in C++. =P

whew... this took awhile. =P I got the main stuff translated. I just have to add/change/delete a few things still. (gonna take a break from this for awhile. Gonna play ffr. Then i gtg for awhile. Grab some early supper.)

Re: feeling codey

Looks like the foundation of what "The Sims" is built on.

This style of time elapsing stats coding will likely be what future development of the profile pets program uses.

Re: feeling codey

People must have too much time on their hands to make all of those codes. I can't stand coding. <_<

**SpoOkyMagician** · 08-23-2007, 08:18 PM

Re: feeling codey

^^ Yea, in the example program itself, i mentioned that this is based apon the sims. I gave credit to them in the game information. But yea, its pretty much what the sims looks like in code. =P and yea probably.

^LOL... yea i know. Programmers have way too much time on their hands. But eh, its worth the money. lol =P

edit: btw, ill try finishing the C++ convert thing later. Busy atm. =\

**Tps222** · 08-23-2007, 08:25 PM

Re: feeling codey

I remember the game maker coding days. It was unecessarily tedious and the algorithims they required were ridiculous imo. I'd much rather just code the game in something a bit more practical and universal, like C++, and integrate a pre-made graphics engine into if it need.

Still, you did a good job with what you had to work with. It looks good.

Also, while most coding languages are similar and you can trace their roots back to a common ancestor, knowing one does not mean you more or less know them all. I'm pretty sure if you had learned C# and tried to code in basic or pascal(god knows why you would) you'd be pretty lost, as you are trying to code uncompiled text into a foreign machine language based system.
