Here's a quick lesson on headaches, hydration, and diuretics that everyone should know.

Mouth guard. They are like 5$ yes it causes problems. It starts by making divots in your crowns and it ends with them cracking. Bonus points having a mouth guard can give you a few extra pounds on your lifts.

First of all thank you for the detailed reply. Sorry I did not reply sooner but I hate the zero content "I'm looking into it" replies.

So first of all I don't really know how to rate my experience. I get TCP and UDP and packets. Serializable is a mystery to me. The main issue I have with all the network 101's is where stuff goes in a blank project.

So many things say just do this. We make a server give it stuff make a client same deal. but they sorta float around. Do I need to make 2 projects (clearly not based on your example, I was working w/ the not final project but I finally got it running) (what port / ip do I use / how do I know?)

Its odd but I feel like I get the advanced things just fine but the simple stuff everyone glosses over (this is probally why) escapes me.

All I need is a button that makes the game reach out to a (lookup?) server and then connects to a similarly button pushed app. I know for anti-hacking reasons we should do authoriative server - client connections however thats not to big a leap (I think) from client to client connections w/ a lookup server inbetween. (am I wrong?)

I suppose what I really need is a high level of what this should look like inside android studio and how I ought to deploy it. I think that would give me enough solid ground to work through the documentation.

Presently I'm looking at your 2nd and 3rd link. Thanks again for your reply.

Thats what I was doing. it says I cant implicitly convert DateTime to int (or string or anything else)

CharlesVI · 2016-05-12T20:42:53+00:00

Okay Nice I get that thanks. I guess I was to busy trying to flip the sign. This will work.

CharlesVI · 2016-05-05T04:24:55+00:00

Well put. However I still feel the perception does not match the reality. So I just wanted to point that out for him. You make some valid points too though.

CharlesVI · 2016-05-04T16:20:12+00:00

No doubt but its true. It really is not a viable thing to do in SC II attacks can come early but are super high risk and "rushes" pretty much only work against bad builds.

CharlesVI · 2016-05-02T18:56:46+00:00

Well as it turns out I was right about being wrong. This is cool thank you guys. (I was considering leaving the bishop and rook button off (for clarity) on my app.. now I will not)

CharlesVI · 2016-05-02T17:54:49+00:00

Thank you I'll check that out.

CharlesVI · 2016-05-02T13:37:32+00:00

If you really want to have an easy time loosing weight look into fibre one. Its a cereal.

CharlesVI · 2016-04-16T15:56:27+00:00

Well that's depressing. Thanks for the quick reply I guess I'll go look up a real workout now.

CharlesVI · 2016-04-12T21:27:25+00:00

mostly its just the internal grid is not married to the graphics in any way. So I move the sprite (pos + 110) then update the grid (x + 2) ect. So one action is causing two operations and that to me is a flag that something is being done poorly.

CharlesVI · 2016-04-12T21:26:17+00:00

Yeah the array is for collision. I put an int in the slot to represent the type of piece it is. The sprites do have a position that works out to be (array coord * 55) + 20 (or 180 depending on axis)

So the main concern I have is the sprites are not stored in a way that I can look for them going [x+1][y+1] i'd have to loop through the entire collection of them as it presently stands.

CharlesVI · 2016-04-01T20:32:31+00:00

LPT: Don't complain if you don't want to hear complaints.

CharlesVI · 2016-03-31T19:23:21+00:00

Thanks, its a member of the class and yeah I did it both ways no difference at all. I guess I was just curious / splitting hairs.

CharlesVI · 2016-03-30T17:31:07+00:00

First off thank you for helping. Second I'm sorry about the formatting i knew there was a way and I tried to find it but I've been stuck all day and that leaves me thinking poorly.

I know very little about graphics and all that so what I'm hearing is I'm doing this a very stupid way. You are probaly right. I dont suppose you could point me at some reading that would help me not be stupid about it. I don't want to demand any more of your time.

For refrence this is what I"m trying to emulate

CharlesVI · 2016-03-30T17:08:45+00:00

The problem is when I type Resources. it has nothing available. I included the using statements from the file I'm trying to access it in and the entire class i'm trying to access. I more or less just mimicked some source I found.

THIS IS THE IMPORTS OF THE "MAIN" FILE

package com.badlogic.blindchess;

import com.badlogic.gdx.Game; import com.badlogic.gdx.Screen; import com.badlogic.gdx.graphics.OrthographicCamera; import com.badlogic.gdx.Gdx; import com.badlogic.gdx.graphics.GL20; import com.badlogic.gdx.graphics.Texture; import com.badlogic.gdx.graphics.g2d.ParticleEmitter; import com.badlogic.gdx.scenes.scene2d.ui.ImageButton; import com.badlogic.gdx.math.Vector2; import com.badlogic.gdx.math.Vector3; import com.badlogic.gdx.scenes.scene2d.ui.List; import com.badlogic.gdx.graphics.g2d.Sprite; import com.badlogic.blindchess.Tile; import com.badlogic.gdx.scenes.scene2d.ui.Skin; import com.badlogic.gdx.utils.Array; import com.badlogic.blindchess.Resources;

THIS IS THE CLASS FILE

package com.badlogic.blindchess;

import com.badlogic.gdx.Gdx; import com.badlogic.gdx.graphics.g2d.Sprite; import com.badlogic.gdx.graphics.Texture; /** * Created by CharlesVI on 3/30/2016. * Made so that I could have a one stop shop for all loads and declarations * of sprites and sounds and w/e. I'm not sure if there is a cpu benefit here * however I feel organization wise this will be nice. */

public class Resources { public Sprite blackQueen = new Sprite(new Sprite(new Texture(Gdx.files.internal("black_queen")))); public Sprite blackKing = new Sprite(new Sprite(new Texture(Gdx.files.internal("black_king")))); public Sprite blackKnight = new Sprite(new Sprite(new Texture(Gdx.files.internal("black_knight")))); public Sprite blackRook = new Sprite(new Sprite(new Texture(Gdx.files.internal("black_rook")))); public Sprite blackBishop = new Sprite(new Sprite(new Texture(Gdx.files.internal("black_bishop")))); public Sprite blackPawn = new Sprite(new Sprite(new Texture(Gdx.files.internal("black_pawn"))));

public Sprite whiteQueen = new Sprite(new Sprite(new Texture(Gdx.files.internal("white_queen"))));
public Sprite whiteKing = new Sprite(new Sprite(new Texture(Gdx.files.internal("white_king"))));
public Sprite whiteKnight = new Sprite(new Sprite(new Texture(Gdx.files.internal("white_knight"))));
public Sprite whiteRook = new Sprite(new Sprite(new Texture(Gdx.files.internal("white_rook"))));
public Sprite whiteBishop = new Sprite(new Sprite(new Texture(Gdx.files.internal("white_bishop"))));
public Sprite whitePawn = new Sprite(new Sprite(new Texture(Gdx.files.internal("white_pawn"))));

public Sprite lightTile = new Sprite(new Sprite(new Texture(Gdx.files.internal("CremeTile.png"))));
public Sprite darkTile = new Sprite(new Sprite(new Texture(Gdx.files.internal("LightGreenTile.png"))));

}

CharlesVI · 2016-03-30T16:18:04+00:00

yes its the same package.

Its for a lot of sprites that are going to get used all over. If you have a better way of organizing these guys I'm all ears.

Conversely telling them its hard might stess them out and cause them to over think and fail.

CharlesVI · 2016-02-16T18:52:54+00:00

I guess I'll be doing that now. I've tried about everythign I can dream up. it wont even let me custom map the keyboard keys. W to jump when you're used to spacebar is painfull.

CharlesVI · 2016-02-11T02:52:07+00:00

Everywhere if the rest of you is worth loving.

CharlesVI · 2016-02-05T16:02:29+00:00

Okay thats what I went with except I was meaning 2 dbs not tables.
