Phredreeke Don't listen to this idiot Registered 03/08/2002 Points 4504	24th January, 2008 at 06:09:26 - Yes, I am giving up Clicking for Java http://www.silvernova.co.uk/brickdown/Main.html Cheers to Tim for hosting. (if the URL didn't give it away already) - Ok, you must admit that was the most creative cussing this site have ever seen - Make some more box arts damnit! http://create-games.com/forum_post.asp?id=285363
Tim I'm on here way too much Registered 25/08/2006 Points 132	24th January, 2008 at 06:11:21 - Any time http://www.SilverNova.co.uk

For side collisions, redo code as follows: x_ball += xVelocity; for(Brick brick : bricks[]) { if(ball.overlaps(brick)) { xVelocity = -1; brick.destroy(); } } y_ball += yVelocity; for(Brick brick : bricks[]) { if(ball.overlaps(brick)) { yVelocity = -1; brick.destroy(); } } n/a

Java has the advantage of being runnable in a web browser. (you could compile the game as a plug-in BUT using a virtual machine like Java does is much safer for the end user) Speed is not really an issue. C++ is faster than Java, but either one is much faster than MMF. - Ok, you must admit that was the most creative cussing this site have ever seen - Make some more box arts damnit! http://create-games.com/forum_post.asp?id=285363

Yes, it is fast in simple computations, but when you get to graphical programming it's really slow. I've had first hand experience with this in one of my labs. We had to make a GUI with a background image and a simple bus moving across the screen(made of a bunch of ellipses and rectangles). It could go no faster than 1 fps! I tried lowering the timer delay to 20/100 seconds but there was no change. n/a

Cazra Crazy? Registered 24/07/2002 Points 4472	30th January, 2008 at 10:17:16 - a month ago. Unless they gave it steroids when update 4 was released, I don't think much change has happened to the speed. n/a

Billybobjoe198 Registered 12/01/2007 Points 221	31st January, 2008 at 07:58:58 - 404 error, and my post has to be four words long. n/a
