----------------------------------- Newfder Wed Apr 14, 2004 5:02 pm :Crazy Pong: ----------------------------------- here is my "crazy pong" the conrtolls are as follows: player 1 arrows player 2 up: i down: k left: j right: l player 3 up: q down: z left: a right: s player 4 (num pad) up: 9 down: 3 left: 5 right: 6 ----------------------------------- Andy Sun Apr 18, 2004 6:40 pm ----------------------------------- u should use input.keydown instead of getch since u can cheat by pressing down two of ur buttons and then nobody else can move ----------------------------------- gamer Sun Apr 18, 2004 7:38 pm ----------------------------------- u need ta use view.update or else the players flash alot ----------------------------------- Paul Sun Apr 18, 2004 7:53 pm ----------------------------------- Good idea though, I was just thinking of making one the other day :P , stop the flashing and it would be better, my resolution also screws it up. ----------------------------------- Cervantes Sun Apr 18, 2004 8:00 pm ----------------------------------- y'kno dodge you can still jam the keyboard with input.keydown.. keyboards, excluding shift, ctrl, and alt, can only handle 3 sometimes 4 totally max of 5 keys at one time. mine can do 4 i think. ----------------------------------- valor Mon Apr 19, 2004 8:01 pm ----------------------------------- good idea but needs work, are you supposed to be able to move up down forward and backward with the same person? ----------------------------------- Newfder Tue Apr 20, 2004 2:30 pm ----------------------------------- yes, you are supposed to be able to move anywhere ----------------------------------- SuperGenius Wed Apr 21, 2004 3:29 pm ----------------------------------- good effort, and better than anything else ive seen in our class so far. I think it would be cool if you made it playable over the internet, with 1/2 people at each terminal, and this would also reduce crowding around the keyboard. Perhaps one player could use the mouse to the same end as well. ----------------------------------- WhatAmIDoing Fri Apr 23, 2004 8:49 pm ----------------------------------- ya it is a good idea I had 4 ppl playing on keyboard in class till we got kicked out so good job ----------------------------------- gamer Sat Apr 24, 2004 7:43 pm ----------------------------------- ok i heard from a friend of mine saying that turing doesnt allow two button being pressed at the sametime, somethine about no buffering.....example, if 2 people playin pong with the same keyboard (one on left one on right side), let say the right player hit the ball but then he holds down a key, then the left player wont be able to move the paddle with the keys.....is this true?? or is this only for older version of turing? how to fix it? ----------------------------------- Newfder Sun Apr 25, 2004 9:54 am ----------------------------------- no its not true. you can however do something like that IF you are using getch, to fix it use Input.KeyDown
