API's In The Microsoft Flight Simulator X SDK About Multiplayer Chatbox Or Any Multiplayer Functions
Jun 2, 2011
I am making a program for Microsoft Flight Simulator X, and When you are in Multiplayer in most games there is a Chat room, or Chat Box. Do you think that there is any way I can reach maybe an API or possibly monitor the Screen so If someone types !Help in the chat box my bot would Respond like "Software by (whoever) other commands" stuff like that. But I cant seem to find any info about API's in the Microsoft Flight Simulator X SDK about Multiplayer Chatbox or any multiplayer functions in that matter.

I am trying to make a two player game.Each player is able to move left and right, aim up and down, jump, and shoot.On some occasions when a number of keys are being pressed at once, some other keys wont register.For example, you can hold a key down to keep moving left, keep holding a key down to aim up(changing the angle), keep holding a key down to keep jumping, keep holding a key down to keep shooting. and there are TWO players at the same time:if both players are shooting, only one can aim down(press key to change angle). but it is fine if both trying to aim up ? Can the keyboard not handle too many keys at once?

I am trying to make a Chess multiplayer game in Visual Basic. Its a two player which will be played in a normal way and not even over LAN. So far, I am done designing the board.
My logic is: First, on clicking any square, the click event handler will check whether a piece resides on that square. If not, then it checks if a piece is to be moved to that square. If both are negative, then it does nothing.
Now, the problem with this is, how do I code the click events? Also, I have represented the board using a 2dimensional array. But how do I update the positions after every move? And how do I check whether legal move is being executed? One more thing I want to add is whenever a piece is clicked, the possible legal squares should be highlighted.
For this, what I did was, for every click event on any square it checked if there was a piece. If there was a piece, then it highlighted all possible moves for that piece using If-Else-If logic, but it turned out to be too cumbersome and too long. And another problem which arose was, how do I know that if the user clicks an empty square to move the piece there?

I was looking at this example: Basic TCP Communication I was really amazed by this piece of code however it only works in WLAN. I was thinking if its possible to make the same program over internet not the same router but which can be connected to two different countries or any other place except the same network?
Actually I have created a very simple game called whack a mole. In which buttons appear and the user has to click it before it disappears. however I am trying to make it multiplayer over the internet even if i have to create a server from my PC. I dont know if its even possible. The other player should also get the same screen as the user who hosted the game just like real time.

So I'm developing a minesweeper flags game and the multiplayer version is all set up, but the single player version is still under developement. It's important to refer that I'm using a DataGridView, and I'm applying r = tab1.CurrentCell.RowIndex + 1 and c = tab1.CurrentCell.ColumnIndex + 1 to see where the player clicks. What I want to do is to make the AI click any random cell when it's turn comes, but how do I do this.

What is the best way to write functions in Microsoft.NET (VB) to avoid memory leaks. I have always followed this style:
Public Sub TestMemoryLeak()
Dim testCon As SqlConnection
Try
[code].....
Here the connection reference is created before the TRY clause and is initialised after the TRY clause. I believe the connection is always closed and dereferenced even if an exception is thrown. Is this good practice? I see a lot of code that creates references and dereferences in the TRY clause, but this would mean that the memory is not correctly handled if an exception is thrown. Some developers say they don't like to clean up in the finally clause.

What I am trying to do is have a class where the functions of the same name are both instance functions and shared functions.
Public Shared Function Get...(byval xx as xx)
and
Public Function Get...
The Public Function uses a Property xx created in the constructor, whereas the Shared Function has the parameters (byval xx as xx).

For greater accuracy I should use a Decimal instead of a Double ( so I've been told ). Why then have Microsoft chosen to use DOUBLE for most of the functions that return a floating point value in the Math Class?

I need to produce an error display message when the Windows Mobile PDA is in flight mode. The user will need to pull and push data from a SQL Server server; however when in flight mode this is not doable and a message needs to be displayed. Currently the message that is displayed is:
A request to send information the the computer using IIS has failed. For more results please see HRESULT.
I am programming using VB.Net and I am fairly new to it. I have searched for the past week on the Internet and come across information suggesting that I use TAPI, however I do not know what to import, or where the "flight mode detection" code would go in my application.

I have a 3-axis robotic machine. But due to training purposes, i would like to create a simulator/emulator that act just like the 3-axis robotic machine. I want the simulator to be able to create its own virtual parallel port. So instead when i execute the coding that operates the actual 3-axis robot,whenever i send a trigger to my virtual parallel port, my simulator will start working. So my question is,
1) How to develop a simulator/emulator using Visual Basic.NET
2) How to access and create a virtual parallel port within my computer.

I'm trying to make a list of flight plans loaded into my program, with each flight plan having a list of waypoints along the route, along with a few other properties associated with the flight plan. Each waypoint has its own associated properties, i.e. waypoint ID, waypoint type, location, etc.
Here's the declarations:
Code:
Public Class WPinfo
Public WPType As String
Public WPID As String
[Code]...
How do I implement the List methods to access the list elements, and add, remove, etc? The way I'm doing it now just gets me an 'Object reference not set to an instance of an object' error during runtime.

I've been working on a graphical simulator application using GDI. GDI is terrible for rendering what simple graphics I need, too much flickering and definitely not efficient. From what I have been reading GDI and GDI+ are pretty much out of date and what I should be using is Direct2D. But my problem starts when I cannot find ANY reference material to even begin coding. I found some examples for C++, but my little knowledge of C++ prevents me from implementing and translating it to VB2010. I have found someone on VBForums through a Google search that says he is starting a tutorial for Direct2D for VB2010 but I have yet to see anything happen.
All I am rendering are small circular shapes used for simulating cell growth, I have no problem rendering 10-20 moving shapes at a time with a small amount bearable flickering, but any more the lag worsens exponentially and the application will use a ridiculous amount cpu. Overall I want to be able to display and render over 100 shapes at a time. So my question is... Where can I find some reference material regarding Direct3D for VB2010?

I have a combo box, I have entered in 6 different world wide destinations for example:London, Paris, New York etc The program is for booking plane tickets, at the moment the user has to input the cost of the journey manually into a textbox and then depending on the number of tickets requested will calculate the cost.
What I would like to do is to assign a unique numeric value (the specific cost of the flight for one ticket) to each of the items in the combo box list so that when a user selects a destination the default cost of the ticket is already known and does not require the input of the user.Private Sub cmbDestination_SelectedIndexChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles cmbDestination.SelectedIndexChanged End Sub The idea is that which ever destination is selected, for example: Paris - �155 would then set the variable 'ticketPrice' to 155 and allow me to change the calculations of the program to not require user input.

A gyrocompass simulator? Basically i work with stabalized VSAT antennas that track a satellite around 30,000 K in the sky from a ship getting tossed around at sea. These antennas need to know where they're pointing so they can find the satellite, this is where the gyrocompass comes in. It tell the antenna how many degrees from north it is pointing.
I need a simulator to imitate the output of a gyrocompass on a ship that is moving around. The program would pass data out of the serial port so i could hook it up to the antenna and it would know where it is pointing when i am testing it.
