Theres already such a tutorial written by Obsidian, it would take like 5-10minutes to find it and update it.

Mine was done much better. I'll do a tutorial.

Hmm, couldn't you technically use the formula Dragoon Master uses for his AI, and instead of doing it so it re-calculates every thing every single loop, you could have a base matrix for the map and the tile / tile attributes which would only update when the map changes. And then, just make it so that when the player clicks, it actually calculates the rest of the matrix. I think this would be much faster as it would only have to calculate the players, items and npcs, and it would only calculate when the player clicks. This could actually be used to update Dragoon's code server side too as it could make a base matrix for each map instead of recalculating the same things every single loop for every single map.

Just a few theoretical ideas.

lol, I actually got points 8) I thought that was a joke. Anyway, my mouse movement tutorial works but without pathfiniding Tongue Gimme some more points: viewtopic.php?f=75&t=419


Re: Want to write a tutorial? - JokeofWeek - 23-09-2008

Just some ideas for tutorials Smile :
  • -Proper spell animations, not elysium ripped Wink
    -Updated IOCP to work with MS4 ? (donno if any changes are required)
    -Perhaps day/night again?
    -MP3/WAV Music

I think you could also give people some points for converting an old tutorial, maybe more points depending on how hard it was to convert, etc.?

Would just like to share the following for the extension to word filter:

Extension was posted, I'm sure nearly nothing would need to be changed.

What is the point of the points (lol)? I mean, what do they do for us if we earn them?

Old topic, wasn't being used. It was a sticky in the Tutorials section.
