----------------------------------- chrispminis Thu Dec 08, 2005 8:37 pm Craps game. ----------------------------------- Well, this is my very first program. Its a simulation of the dice game, craps. Tell me what you think, how I could improve it etc. Please be nice since I'm new to turing. Edit: I don't understand why, but I can't attach one of my pictures. Fatal error: Using $this when not in object context in /home/.angela/hackerdan/compsci.ca/v2/attach_mod/includes/functions_thumbs.php on line 226 Well anyways, it just changes the title screen, to get around it simply delete the error coding etc. Edit: Well, I compressed the program and pictures together in one file, so hopefully all the pictures will work now. But, I reviewed my coding and realized its very sloppy and confusing, so I'm giving up on it for now. May improve on it later. ----------------------------------- Tony Thu Dec 08, 2005 9:29 pm ----------------------------------- It helps to keep all of the files in a single zip folder :) ----------------------------------- chrispminis Thu Dec 08, 2005 9:42 pm ----------------------------------- Alright, i'll keep that in mind next time i make a submission. Also, what is the difference between the source code section and the application section of the turing forums? And any other comments? I know my coding could be shortened by about a billion but how? ----------------------------------- do_pete Thu Dec 08, 2005 9:58 pm ----------------------------------- haha craps, i never new that was an actual card game, i thought you were calling your game crap. i wonder what they were thinking when they made that name up... :D ----------------------------------- chrispminis Thu Dec 08, 2005 10:21 pm ----------------------------------- Hmmm... its actually a dice game... Has anyone actually "TRIED" the program yet? :( Is it working? ----------------------------------- do_pete Thu Dec 08, 2005 10:46 pm ----------------------------------- :oops: i meant to say dice game. and no i havn't tried your game yet because my PSP doesn't come with turing ----------------------------------- iker Thu Dec 08, 2005 10:56 pm ----------------------------------- not a bad game, I suggest you bring the player to the option of rolling again instead of bringing the program back the the startup screen. Another thing, I had to edit the game to actualy play it, by commenting out anything that had to do with the title and win pics... If you are having problems uploading them to this site, try uploading them to photobucket or some other site and having a link posted to download them:) anyways, its a good start :oops: i meant to say dice game. and no i havn't tried your game yet because my PSP doesn't come with turing then why be on the turing forums? ----------------------------------- chrispminis Thu Dec 08, 2005 11:45 pm ----------------------------------- Well I took Tony's advice and compressed it all, I think the pictures should all work now, I didn't change the the program so that there was a roll again feature and didn't return to the title screen, but I gave up when I saw how messy my coding was. lol. ----------------------------------- didsbub Fri Dec 09, 2005 10:44 am ----------------------------------- Fun game, good time waster ----------------------------------- nastynika Fri Dec 09, 2005 11:03 am ----------------------------------- :roll: it sucks so do a lot of games though ----------------------------------- do_pete Fri Dec 09, 2005 11:53 am ----------------------------------- try having the dice do a little animation like so: View.Set ("offscreenonly") procedure DrawDice (number : int) case number of label 1 : Draw.Box (50, 350, 150, 250, black) %the box Draw.FillOval (100, 300, 10, 10, black) % centre point label 2 : Draw.Box (50, 350, 150, 250, black) %the box Draw.FillOval (75, 275, 10, 10, black) % bottom left Draw.FillOval (125, 325, 10, 10, black) % top right label 3 : Draw.Box (50, 350, 150, 250, black) %the box Draw.FillOval (100, 300, 10, 10, black) % centre point Draw.FillOval (75, 275, 10, 10, black) % bottom left Draw.FillOval (125, 325, 10, 10, black) % top right label 4 : Draw.Box (50, 350, 150, 250, black) %the box Draw.FillOval (75, 325, 10, 10, black) % top left Draw.FillOval (75, 275, 10, 10, black) % bottom left Draw.FillOval (125, 325, 10, 10, black) % top right Draw.FillOval (125, 275, 10, 10, black) % bottom right label 5 : Draw.Box (50, 350, 150, 250, black) %the box Draw.FillOval (100, 300, 10, 10, black) % centre point Draw.FillOval (75, 325, 10, 10, black) % top left Draw.FillOval (75, 275, 10, 10, black) % bottom left Draw.FillOval (125, 325, 10, 10, black) % top right Draw.FillOval (125, 275, 10, 10, black) % bottom right label 6 : Draw.Box (50, 350, 150, 250, black) %the box Draw.FillOval (75, 300, 10, 10, black) % middle left Draw.FillOval (75, 325, 10, 10, black) % top left Draw.FillOval (75, 275, 10, 10, black) % bottom left Draw.FillOval (125, 300, 10, 10, black) % middle right Draw.FillOval (125, 325, 10, 10, black) % top right Draw.FillOval (125, 275, 10, 10, black) % bottom right end case end DrawDice for i : 1 .. 10 DrawDice (Rand.Int (1, 6)) View.Update delay (100) cls end for DrawDice (Rand.Int (1, 6)) ----------------------------------- codemage Fri Dec 09, 2005 1:05 pm ----------------------------------- The name "craps" is a vulgarization of the word "crabs" - the lowest roll that you can make in the game "Hazzard", upon which craps is based. :idea: ----------------------------------- Clayton Wed Jan 11, 2006 6:35 pm ----------------------------------- um not bad but you really should try to add other features such as telling the user what keys to press in case they dont want to bet all in. dice animation not bad but could be seriously shortened with procedures and labels, but good job, you have to start somewhere :lol:
