Wow I love how those bullets are moving around. It still looks smooth too.

yeah it does look cool and they are only moving 1 direction down yay testing xD




uhhh you not masking the sprites right or something iambian? as i dont think you should have that box around you in this screenie

also when holding quite a few common keycombos in game down the whole game slows down until you release them not sure whats causeing that havent looked hard though

and this one i mention earlier.

for starters you documented or coded .newposxy (r.npxy in lib_script) and they are backwards x is y and y is x blah blah blah just pointing that out there

How do you get through these lines of bullets without getting hit???

you dont

this isnt a feasable script i was just bored and testing things. currently cadan is in debug mode aka you cant get hit

Whee! Doublepost!

I ran into a problem with how the the whole velocity/ttl thing works. Should be easily fixable but I wanted to show a screenshot of the problem. The problem is that the bullets are not expiring and instead, they are slowing down halfway down.

Just so you know, I did not "copy" geekboy's script but I re-implemented it to closeness. I will also post the script that performs this effect. Note that the call to the custom bullet creator is not included since that just does that one thing.
StageScript:
.load(r1,-30) ;x
.load(r2,-30)   ;y
.load(r3,30)  ;loop range
.load(r4,1)
StgScptLoop:
.load(r7,2)
.wait(r7)
.newposxy(r1,r2)
.call(CustomMakeBullet)
.cpl(r1)
.inc(r1)
.newposxy(r1,r2)
.call(CustomMakeBullet)
.setstats(r0,rs.debug1)
.cpl(r1)
.inc(r1)
.addrx(r1,r4)
.dec(r3)
.jumpnz(_)
.load(r3,30)
.cpl(r4)
.inc(r4)
_:
.jump(StgScptLoop)
And the resulting screenie is attached. I'm just sharing it because sometimes bugs can look better than the intended result

EDIT: Also, you can see the bullet engine maxing out at 128 bullets. When I get slowmode ready, I'll show a screenshot of the thing going up to 256 bullets. Yay.

That's actually pretty cool looking. It looks like the screen is being warped.

If you didn't catch it from my previous post, the slowdown behavior is bugged. It's not supposed to slowdown at all. It's supposed to disappear as it is a test condition.

But while this is a bug, it does demonstrate velocity change (which *is* supported) for them bullets. You only get 4 speeds, but it's enough variance to make something cool

who huh what olook they move right now >.> <.<


added a second stream to this one.

the last demo is from 2009 can we have a current demo? the screenshot is amazing!!!!!!!

once its in a releasable state sure. that is not going to be for a while still. Currently all the demos are hackedish together with some really good knowledge of the code base to the point where its not really even usable. (read we have a custom make bullet routine for everything as well we have not coded in a proper shoot command.)Not to mention we don't have anything else really coded in as far as enemies and such.
