Pretentious not-yet-a-clone clone of Among Us in QB64
« on: October 18, 2020, 11:43:54 am »
Watch as I talk about Among Us while writing something that vaguely resembles a player moving around a map.



Code: QB64: [Select]
  1. SCREEN _NEWIMAGE(1000, 800, 32)
  2.  
  3. TYPE object
  4.     x AS SINGLE
  5.     y AS SINGLE
  6.  
  7. DIM SHARED player AS object
  8. DIM SHARED camera AS object
  9. DIM playerSpeed AS SINGLE
  10.  
  11. map = _NEWIMAGE(_WIDTH * 3, _HEIGHT * 2, 32)
  12. _DEST map
  13. FOR i = 1 TO 50
  14.     CircleFill _WIDTH * RND, _HEIGHT * RND, 1000 * RND, _RGB32(255 * RND, 255 * RND, 255 * RND, 255 * RND)
  15.  
  16. player.x = _WIDTH / 2
  17. player.y = _HEIGHT / 2
  18.  
  19. playerSpeed = 5
  20.  
  21. CONST keyUP = 18432
  22. CONST keyDOWN = 20480
  23. CONST keyLEFT = 19200
  24. CONST keyRIGHT = 19712
  25.  
  26.     IF _KEYDOWN(keyUP) THEN player.y = player.y - playerSpeed
  27.     IF _KEYDOWN(keyDOWN) THEN player.y = player.y + playerSpeed

  54.     IF camera.y > 0 THEN camera.y = 0
  55.     IF camera.y < -(_HEIGHT(map) - _HEIGHT) THEN camera.y = -(_HEIGHT(map) - _HEIGHT)

  71.         RadiusError = RadiusError + Y * 2 + 1

@Dav glad it was entertaining!

@bplus the illusion is the key, thanks for checking it out!

Run this and choose "Connect to server" - arbitrarily limited to 10 simultaneous "players" for now.

It's the map+player code of the first post, with networking added. Still not a game, but you can see other players in real time, which is cool.

If you have trouble connecting to 98.29.249.134 (kindly hosted by SpriggsySprigs in the US), replace that on line 97 with alephc.xyz (kindly hosted by Luke in Australia).

Impressive! do you have the code for the server as well? I'd like to try playing around with it :D

Really cool. With some messenger features and a few collision objects, a lot of kids could get so into this! -for getting into qb64- :D

True! I'm hoping to turn it into a real game soon.

If anyone decides to try the room and eventually finds no one currently logged in, just open two instances of the code above to see two instances of yourself running around.

This is great Felippe! I've been wondering how to do this for awhile. I'll try to learn it. I might also drop the CHR$(0) and inkey$ I use for the arrow keys, yours probably works better. Someone could make a really great dungeon type game this way. Thanks!

Thanks, Ken! Glad you enjoyed it.

Did you have luck joining either server? They've both been up since yesterday.

The advantage of using _KEYDOWN for character movement is that all directions can coexist simultaneously and there's no buffer. Once released, the keys immediately stop coming.

LOL I see you! I wonder if we can add chat to it? Like text over your nickname.

I'll be implementing chat soon, but for now there's no length limit for player name - it's a rudimentary messaging system as is!

Works for me.  Connected as is.  Code is so easy to understand. What a great learning example.
