I was away learning about Knowledge Management this week, which will occupy several blog entries as what I learned from this conference experience relates directly to the purpose of this site.
But, I also wanted to let you know how easy it is to use classes that other people author.
As you can see, I have collision detection working. And I barely wrote any code. In fact the class that runs this is directly from Grant Skinner, who released his ProxmityManager class on his site back in February. After reading Branden Hall’s blog using the same methodology as far as dividing the screen into a grid, and then, when the ship is in a particular block, it checks the neighboring blocks for asteroids.
Download the source files for yourself and check out Grant’s and Branden’s blogs for yourself.
