My question is how would i make a tonado out of 'arcs' that moves across the screen while still spining
or
Maybe a car thta moves across the screen.

Er...change the X and Y values?

For spinning, you would have to change the angles of the arcs (i.e add 1 to every angle every time it loops)

well if you can help me that 'd be great or maybemake a car that moves from x=500 to x = 200 or tornado thatd ot he same pls Very Happy

what do you have so far?

No one will do it for you, sorry.

Provide what you have and we can see what is wrong, and help you fix it.

Here is a shell on which to base your tornado.

Turing:


var angle1 : int := 0
var angle2 : int := 90
var height : int := 20
var width : int := 20
var x : int := 1
var y : int := 1
var movex : int := 1
var movey : int := 1
setscreen ("offscreenonly")
loop
    Draw.Arc (x, y, height, width, angle1, angle2, red)
    View.Update
    delay (10)
    cls

    x += movex
    y += movey
    angle1 += 1
    angle2 += 1
    if x >= maxx then
        movex := -1
    elsif x <= 0 then
        movex := 1
    end if
    if y >= maxy then
        movey := -1
    elsif y <= 0 then
        movey := 1
    end if
end loop


Just add some extra arcs and you're set.

Mod edit: Next time, don't post the answer. Instead, gives hints, code snippets, etc.

Post subject:  A friend form thsi forum called insectoid help me make this and I give him all credit now how would I addmore
he said thast the base of the tornado and I agree
he said to add archs to it to make it look like tornado but i dont knwo how Sad pls help

var angle1 : int := 0
var angle2 : int := 90
var height : int := 20
var width : int := 20
var x : int := 1
var y : int := 1
var movex : int := 1
var movey : int := 1
setscreen ("offscreenonly")
loop
Draw.Arc (x, y, height, width, angle1, angle2, red)
View.Update
delay (10)
cls

x += movex
y += movey
angle1 += 1
angle2 += 1
if x >= maxx then
movex := -1
elsif x <= 0 then
movex := 1
end if
if y >= maxy then
movey := -1
elsif y <= 0 then
movey := 1
end if
end loop

I wish i had mod abilities to merge this with the other topic you JUST started about this exact same problem.

As you wish apomb. Wink

broud, if you want more help and less ridicule (like the first topic of yours that got removed), read up on the rules and posting guidelines... Use [code] tags in the future when you post code... Don't post multiple topics for the same (basically) question...

Anyway, unless you're more specific I can only guess that you should use Draw.Arc once again.

I didn't give him the whole anwer ...Anyways, I PMed him afterwords telling him not to ask for answers. In case you guys didn't notice, broud is still unable to use this code as it is not complete.

To add more arcs, try changing the angle1 and angle2 as well as height and width.

If you haven't covered arcs yet, why not search them in the tutorial section?

no need to be sorry... but just obey the simple rules of the forum, and you will be rewarded with generous amounts of help.
