Title: [Inform Rock Paper Scissor game]
Post by: TempodiBasic on October 08, 2018, 06:20:08 pm
Hy Guys
Here I post a my little program
The Inform version of Rock Paper Scissor. Building it in Inform has been interesting to re-think some ideas under the light of evnt driven coding.
So in compressed file attached you get the Assets folder for image files, the .FRM and 2 file .BAS because I hae used 2 different ways to get the pause between two different moments of the output

in the first the flow in modulated by this
Code: QB64: [Select]
  1.  
  2.     IF PlayerChoose = 20 THEN ' wait 2 sec
  3.         in! = TIMER
  4.         DO WHILE TIMER - in! < 2
  5.         LOOP
  6.         restoreGame
  7.     END IF
  8.     IF PlayerChoose THEN PlayerChoose = PlayerChoose + 1 ' here we pass one time(20 frames) into sub_Display before to reset the game
  9.  

in the second way I have used a more suitable QB64 code
Code: QB64: [Select]
  1.  
  2.  
  3.     IF PlayerChoose THEN _DELAY 1
  4.     IF PlayerChoose = 5 THEN restoreGame
  5.     IF PlayerChoose THEN PlayerChoose = PlayerChoose + 1 ' here we pass one time(20 frames) into sub_Display before to reset the game
  6.  

Thanks to try
Welcome feedback

I'll wait for BPlus to make it into...

Rock-Paper-Scissors-Lizard-Spock.

I'll check back in 10-minutes.

Pete :D

Hey Pete, you've seen that? :D

Hi TempodiBasic, worked without a hitch. You give points for ties? Good way to get quarters!

That was fun, Tempodi! Thanks for sharing.

BTW, if you just set the pictures .Hidden property to true it's already enough to keep users from clicking them - no need to also set .Disabled = True.

Disabled is usually to indicate a control can't be clicked (although it's still visible) since that'll make it look different. For a picture box that wouldn't make sense, so you're right to hide them (in which case hiding is enough).

Thanks Fellippe
this is one of the bad behaviours that I must kill, coming from previous experience with other RAD WYGISWYG programs.

it is equal to say that I cannot use an hidden item (button, radiobutton, checkbox, switch) that interacts with user...
I must find another way to code a joke that I have in mind.

Can you set the button to a transparent color? _RGBA32(0,0,0,0)

Buttons won't go transparent but, if you must, you can have a transparent picture box with no border, as that would likely fit what you seem to want to do.

@Steve 
thanks for the idea

@Fellippe
thanks for the feedback and the idea to get a invisible item that responds to clickevent

Yeah, I hope you didn't think I made it up. The first time I saw the game was on an American TV comedy series, The Big Bang Theory.

@Pete
really I have no information about that series on TV (now it seems that I find it everywhere),  so I have imagined that it was born from a joke in chat among you, Bplus and someone others...
it is like an accumulation point....

I coded the game (reply #2 screen shot) from the Big Bang Theory Trivia Game back in 2015-08-09.

You can play it on Android device if you download SmallBASIC (free) from Google Play Store.
It is an "on-line" sample (see SmallBASIC Menu in Navigation screen) simply designed to play with touch screen or mouse.

Pete knows about my interest because he has tried SmallBASIC.
