PostPosted: Wed May 26, 2004 9:08 pm   Post subject: Trigonometry Help, Hockey Game, Shooting

Can anyone spot what's wrong here because I can't see it. YOu press shift to shoot. Works alright from pretty close but if u shoot from far only the xchange increases. What I did was find the angle using Tan(opp/adj) and then multiplied my angle by the movement(2) and divided it by 90 to get x velocity. For Y i did the same but did (90-angle)...please help...

I just noticed too....it shoots faster from the right side of the screen and.. sometimes doesn't bounce off the walls..can anyone tell me what the fuck is going on????
Tony

no no no Laughing

lets go back to our grade 10 trig class.

you got the angle... good Smile

code:

velocityX := totalVelocity * cosd(angle)

velocityY := totalVelocity * sind(angle)


where totalVelocity is the absolute speed of the puck. It could be a static value or depend on player's stength or w/e variable for more depth

I want to argue with you Tony... I believe his method is right... but you're the expert so I'm gonna drop it Laughing .

no, plz argue with me, I'd like to see what a 15 year old has to teach me about trig functions Very Happy

EDIT EDIT EDIT: I am wrong!!! I was thinking of totalVelocity as the sum of the x and y velocities!!! Tony brought that to my attention in the other (identical :p) post. Tony wins again Laughing . You can read below for interest but dun think about implementing it because its not right lol...

Gladly! I like arguing math Very Happy (even if I (am) have a chance being wrong).

Ok. He has the slope. And he gets the angle. We gots that Very Happy. But your way does not work.

Lets say that the angle is 45, and totalVelocity 10. Hence, both the x and y velocities should be equal and have a sum of totalVelocity. Well, lets see if the methods work..

code:

Your method:

velocityX := totalVelocity * cosd(angle)
velocityX := 10 * cosd(45)
velocityX := 7.07

velocityY is the same obviously. But, 7.07 * 2 does not equal 10!!! Sure it gives the right ration, but they dont add up to 10!


My method:

velocityX := (90 - angle) * totalVelocity / 90
velocityX := 45 * 10 / 90
velcotiyX := 5

velocityY is the same. And 5 + 5 = 10 :D. Mine both makes the numbers equal, and scales them down.


Another example. Angle = 30. totalVelocity is 10.

Tony's:

velocityX := 8.66
velocityY := 5

They dont add up to 10... and they're not in the right ratio.

Mine:

velocityX := 6.66
velocityY := 3.33

They add to 10, and are in the right ratio.


Please counter-argue!!! This is getting fun fun fun Very HappyVery HappyVery Happy!!!

Note: I switched the x and y velcotiy formulas in @dri@ans (and mine indirectly), because they were messed up and I wasn't thinking fully right when I made them.
@DRI@N

So the "movement" varialbe I had shood be 10? and then all i need to change is the (90-x) part? sorry I'm kinda confused because I never used "Total Velocity" in my program

No no no... you must use Tony's version.

Quote:

velocityX := totalVelocity * cosd(angle)

velocityY := totalVelocity * sind(angle)


totalVelocity is movement in your program.

BTW Tony: We take trig in grade 9.

Something is still wrong I just tried it...its slower from some places and always shoots 45 degrees, NOT at the net Evil or Very Mad
@DRI@N




PostPosted: Thu May 27, 2004 4:37 pm   Post subject: (No subject)

Here's what I did...for the functions. It works from some places..but from the right side of the screen the shots are backwards. When it hits the boards it should slow down again to xchange=1 ychange=1 but instead it flies off at the same speed as the shot.
code:

function X_Velocity_Calculate(puckx:int,pucky:int):real
var xvelocity, yvelocity : real
var angle : real
var Opposite : int
var Adjacent : int


Adjacent := 400-puckx
Opposite := 620-pucky

if Opposite = 0 then       
angle := 0
else
    angle := arctand (Opposite/Adjacent)
end if

xvelocity := movement*cosd(angle)
result xvelocity
end X_Velocity_Calculate

function Y_Velocity_Calculate(puckx:int,pucky:int):real
var xvelocity, yvelocity : real
var angle : real
var Opposite : int
var Adjacent : int

Adjacent := 400-puckx
Opposite := 620-pucky

if Opposite = 0 then       
angle := 0
else
    angle := arctand (Opposite/Adjacent)
end if

yvelocity := movement*sind(angle)
result yvelocity
end Y_Velocity_Calculate



As well....I have my if statements for Collision to know when he gets the puck, and..he cant shoot because of that because the puck is within the collision zone when im trying to shoot. How do I overcome these 3 problems...
code:

function Collision(x:real,y:real,xwall1:int,xwall2:int,ywall1:int,ywall2:int):boolean
if x < xwall2 and x >xwall1 and y > ywall2 and y <ywall1 then
result true
else
result false
end if
end Collision

Functions look ok... you should have the variables declared globally, not in the functions. And you should have one function for both values. Simple make a test for the direction and then make negative/positive the x/y velcoityes based on that test.

It probally shoots at 45 degrees because you have local and global puck values. Make them just global.

What are the x and y values? The player? or puck? And what is the collission zone? I'm confused about what you are asking.
@DRI@N




PostPosted: Thu May 27, 2004 4:56 pm   Post subject: (No subject)

Forget the shooting I think I fixed it...Ok collisions...I have if statements so when the puck goes withing this "invisible" rectangle(basically right around the player) to move to his stick. Otherwise it will just go by him and I want him to be able to have the puck right? Well when I want to take a shot...the puck is on his stick....and it cannot exit the "invisible" box because it is always being told to return it to his stick

Mkae a boolean variable onStick. When onStick is false, the ball goes to the stick. And then onStick := true when it reaches the stick.

When it is true, then the 'go on stick' procedure is not called and just the shoot procedure is called. Then onStick := false after shot is made.
@DRI@N

K ill try that in a minute...the damn shooting from the right side just goes down and through the walls too Question Question Question Question

PostPosted: Thu May 27, 2004 5:36 pm   Post subject: (No subject)

Make sure the collision detection has no little faults. Make sure you < and > are not switched, and that you are testing the right coordinates. As well, like I said before, check the directin of the current velocity and adjust it so that it goes up/dow/left/right.
