1. RE: RPGame
Hey Lewy,
I checked out your game and thats looking real good! On a allegro
related note, have you played with rotate_sprite() at all? I am having
an insane time trying to get it to work correctly and was wondering if
you ever used it before?

Hi Steve,
Thanks, I'm glad you think it looks good.
I have not used rotate_sprite() yet but I plan on using it if possible
at a later stage of my game's development. I hope to be able to use it to
allow the player to rotate objects in their inventory for more efficient
space usage. I'll check it out and see if I can figure anything out.
later,

For Steve,
I just started playing with rotate_sprite() in Euallegro.
It appears that like several other routines in Euallegro, the
documentation is incorrect. The source and dest images are switched.
It could be that this error is in the source code also. (I didn't check)
Ray's euAllegro.txt:
------------------------<rotate_sprite>------------------------------
Syntax:}}}
<eucode>
rotate_sprite(aSourceBmp, aDestBmp, iX, iY, aAngle) </eucode>
{{{
My correction:
------------------------<rotate_sprite>------------------------------
Syntax:}}}
<eucode>
rotate_sprite(aDestBmp, aSourceBmp, iX, iY, aAngle) </eucode>
{{{
Let me know if this wasn't your problem.
I'll post an example program if you would like.
later,

Hi
Nice, quite nippy.
I can walk through trees and boulders.
The program doesn't exit cleanly - is pressing exit produces no response,
and have to ctrl-alt-del and shut down exw from there (win xp)

5. RE: RPGame
Thanks for looking into it. I did catch the change of the destination
and source bitmaps. What appears to be odd is this:
code
r_angle = itofix(0)
killit = 0
while killit = 0 do
if key(KEY_ESC) then
killit = 1
end if
if key(KEY_RIGHT) then
r_angle += itofix(8)
if r_angle > itofix(256) then
r_angle -= itofix(256)
end if
blit(rocketimage, rocketmod, 0, 0, 0, 0, 40, 40)
-- clean up
rotate_sprite(rocketmod, rocketimage, 0, 0, r_angle)
-- do new rotate only if angle has changed
rest(200) -- to show the individual keypresses
elsif key(KEY_LEFT) then
r_angle -= itofix(8)
if r_angle < itofix(0) then
r_angle += itofix(256)
end if
blit(rocketimage, rocketmod, 0, 0, 0, 0, 40, 40)
rotate_sprite(rocketmod, rocketimage, 0, 0, r_angle)
rest(200)
end if
textout(buffer, fontptr, sprintf("azi: %d", {fixtoi(r_angle)}), 40,
450, 250)
blit(rocketmod, buffer, 0, 0, 200, 200, 40, 40)
vsync()
blit(buffer, screen_ptr, 0, 0, 0, 0, 640, 480)
rest(1)
end while
I seem to get very erratic behavior from rotate_sprite(). That is, it
doesnt seem to follow a linear path and rotate_sprite seems to actually
rotate the image by an arbitrary amount regardless of the what I feed
r_angle. I checked with the allegro guys and they don't believe its a
bug in Allegro, looking at the euall source I can't seem to find a
reason for the wrapper to be broke either.
Anyways, thanks for taking a look. Any thoughts?
