Slime Salad

When you load a collection, you get a handle to the outermost container that holds the whole collection. it is set to fill the screen, so you can't move it directly. Looking back at the discussion from that time I changed that behaviour for exactly this reason (r4860) I see the suggestion that the ...

Opps, I totally forgot to state that excuse.

Comments on the first article:

Could you include the author of each piece even if you wrote it yourself? Will Wordpress allow multiple people (coeditors) to post to the same blog, once you have some?

Perhaps spruce things up with a screenshot or two!

There's actually no limit on number of maps.

This has been requested so often, and I can't see much standing in the way of implementing it*! You'd think those engine devs would prioritise stuff like that rather than holidaying in Hawaii!

*Due to having a lot to do, my new policy is to not make promises

Awesome; good start. I hope people pitch in a banner and so on. So is this the official launch, or will it be announced later?

(Anyone who cares about micro-optimisating scripts might find the benchmark.rpg collection of micro-benchmarks in the engine SVN repository helpful.) Using NPC IDs for bins is pretty clever actually. I wouldn't have thought of that. But if you used fake arrays of globals, then you need to make sure ...

There's a bunch of discussion in the OHR blog thread which is getting too long, so I'm copy pasting this comment here. But maybe you should start a new thread because this one has lots of irrelevant stuff in it too (which I haven't bother rereading). I'd like to form a backup archive of all released...

If someone really wants to take on the duty of collecting all the old games not currently on castleparadox or slimesalad and uploading them there then they should do just that. I'd like to form a backup archive of all released OHR games that haven't yet disappeared into the bit bucket. Old games wh...

I humbly request that people stop responding to spam posts in existing threads at all; those replies are even more annoying than the spam because they aren't deleted.

Using Euclidean distance is fine, it's almost exactly the same speed is you use the following optimisation: if&#40;&#40;x1 -- x2&#41;^2 + &#40;y1 -- y2&#41;^2 <= sr2&#41; then&#40; #If the distance is below the Search Radius, do the following Where sr2 is sr pre-squared. ...

I like the idea of this blog, and TheCube doesn't seem like a bad choice to organise it. Hamster Speak is how I got acquainted with OHR, so yeah, agreed. Really? That's cool. Did you find the engine through the magazine, or the magazine through the engine? Like Venus Patrol does with indie games in ...

Don't the walk npc to x/y commands cause the sheep to walk diagonally? What distance are you using, Manhattan? And how many sheep are there? Non-optimsations: By far the slowest part of your script is the trace commands. Have you tried without them? You could process just 1/18th of the sheep every t...

See especially the "textbox line" command. A few people have scripted this before so perhaps someone will speak up? (Rereading this thread I went and added additional lookup codes for textbox slices; playing with textbox slices should be much safer now. For example, to slide the textbox on...

The ending was pretty nice. I'd really like to try making similar split screen co-op games eventually. Would like to add support to the OHR for multiple views on the map/multiple maps.

Personaly i did love to go on a OHR Con but, you know, Brazil, is too far from the US. Philippines, even father, hehe :v: We could arrange an alternative meetup for non-North Americans. We should meet in the middle! http://tmc.castleparadox.com/pics/midpoint_meetup.jpg According to geomidpoint.com ...
