I wouldn't mind helping with 2 player.

keep in mind how you want your 2 player to work.


Note: i make up my own terms .

1. Touch to touch
    each calc. Sends and receives the previous getkey
Pro.  Small and easy.
Cons.  More likely to obtain the 4 error*

2. Update- Send/Receive
    You have an option in your game that lets the user send or receive data.
Pro.  Not much really.
Cons.  Well, you probably can see them...

3. Update- full
    Update as much as you want but only after a period of time (recommended about 10 sec.)
Pro.  Great for data transfer.  Not terrible to program in.
Cons.    Might not be how you want your game to look...  all depends on your game.
            Chances are that the programmer will screw up a couple of times before succeeding so back up the program.



*4 Error*
   An error which occurs when the linking cord has some interference which makes the receiving calculator get 4
Note:  The longer the cord the more this error occurs
       -7 foot cord.
              Almost unusable. (1 out of 5-10)
       -3 foot cord.
              Tons better than the 7 foot cord.  But still shouldn't be used with touch to touch multilayer. (1 out of 50-100)
       -6 inch cord.
               Works great and  only gets the four error (once in about 1000)

Note: My calculations are done by observation and have not been tested.

Note.   sry going to save and continue writing.

That would be helpful, but I'm not interested in doing it. Maybe when I finish the project you can do it?

I think it is extremely hard :S

Anyways, I'm making vegetables sprites now. No grayscale, though. I'll be doing them black/white only :S

Does this game have to be played in multiplayer? You could maybe focus on single player for now, maybe, then 2 players later (or someone else can do it).

Yes, that's what I said before... Unlike the original farmville it will be a single player, which goal is to make your farm bigger, just that. So, you can now suppose it won't be very fun :S

So no job for me? ;(

Oh ok, I didn't knew that'S what you meant. I think it could be fun in single player too. Just have some game modes or objectives in the game where you need to provide a big farm in X amount of time, make a certain amount of money in a certain amount of time, etc. Kinda like Starcraft missions, but with building a farm instead of attacking other armies.

Yes, missions, great idea! Thanks much!

Another thing, can the game be named 'Farmville'?

I'm worried with copyrights :S

If you're worried, name it Farmvill

or Farmvillage

Farmtown?

Great, I think that would be cool (go for it, steal!)

I'm going to post sprites today!
