IF Function - Blackjack Game - Change Value ?
Apr 2, 2011I am having trouble with a blackjack game I am creating. I have buttons 1 - 13 (A-K) I have 5 Textboxes which when the above buttons are pressed displays the values in the textboxes. I also have one more textbox which adds up the values of the above 5 textboxes to give your Black Jack Total. The problem I have is if an Ace (11) is in one of the textboxes and the Total Value exceeds 21 i need to have the Ace (11) change its value to 1 instead.
textbox 1 - 5 will be the card values
textbox6.text will be the total Value
I have tried......
if textbox6.text > 21 then and textbox1.text = 11 then textbox1.text = 1
This seems to work fine however it only solves the problem of an Ace (11) appearing in textbox1.text so i tried to repeat the code with the other boxes...
if textbox6.text > 21 then and textbox1.text = 11 then textbox1.text = 1
if textbox6.text > 21 then and textbox2.text = 11 then textbox2.text = 1
if textbox6.text > 21 then and textbox3.text = 11 then textbox3.text = 1

However this does not work and my program freezes?

View 1 RepliesGame Programming :: Function Always Returns False?
Oct 3, 2009[VB.Net 2008 Express Edition]I have a 2D array of Integers called Map(0 to 79, 0 to 79)In this array I store IDs for tiles to be loaded later.I'm trying to write a module to generate a random dungeon every time it starts by making a room 10x10 tiles in the middle, picking a wall, making a hallway from that wall, and adding a room to the end of that hallway.From there it picks a random wall anywhere in the map, adds a hallway and a room, and repeats until the number of floor tiles is high enough [400 atm] The problem is that when the rooms and hallways are made, it first runs a function to return whether or not that space is empty. The problem is that even when I know for a fact the space is empty, it returns false. I don't understand why. Here's the Clear function.
Code:
Public Function Clear(ByVal Top As Integer, ByVal Left As Integer, ByVal Height As Integer, ByVal Width As Integer) As Boolean
'Returns whether a rectangle is empty
'used to loop through a rectangle of the map array
Dim introw As Integer

Game Programming :: Getting A Highscore To Save And Load Using My.Settings
May 20, 2011I've tried to implement this highscore saving feature, so that when my application closes, the highscore saves within the my.settings storage function, and when my program loads up again, the same highscore loads up from this file. atm, it works ONLY within the application (I can close forms and it's still there, but if i end the program it resets to 0 next time it's loaded).it's basically 2 lines of code..1 for saving and 1 for loading..is this the best way to save a highscore for a game? I was initially thinking of making a database and linking it to that, but apprantly it's easier with the My.settings. even thought of using stremawriter but it's more uneccessary work over my.settings.[code]

Create A Basic Mmo Game For Fun In .net?
May 14, 2012I'm trying to create a basic mmo game for fun in vb.net. I have done it before with a game api but I'm recently reformat my computer and can no longer find it. I'm trying to dynamically create a new picture box that will be my character or NPC and I can get the image to show up on the screen correctly but I'm not able to use "myGuy" anywhere else in the project. So the character basically sits there and does nothing. I'm wondering if there is away to call "myGuy" (myGuy.Top = 40) in another sub? If you know of a good game api that is not a hog and not expensive let me know.

Create A Football Game In .NET?
Mar 24, 2012I spend my spare time trying to create a football game in VB.NET. I have a save game file saved using serialization which I am using to test code. This file contains all the elements of gameplay (stored plays, games, options, etc...) I create this file in the software itself using the code I created; I put a lot of work into this save game file and I would like to continue using it.
However, I discovered I need to add a couple member variables to the class from which the saved object is derived (object is called m_League, class is ClLeague). Any time I've altered ClLeague my old saved games don't load anymore because the new m_League object does not match the old m_League object. I have to start a new game and create m_League from scratch which wastes a lot of time.
This must pop up in with the professionals out there who write patches for software and need the users old saved files to continue working. Is there any trick to this situation or do I have to just accept it?
Create A Memory Game In Program?
Apr 16, 2012I am a noob to Visual Basic and I am currently learning it at my college. I have a final project to do and I am having some trouble deciding on how to attack it. First off, I have done a lot of research and I cannot find my answer, so I am using this(post) as a last resort. The book my prof is having me use is outdated, its coding on vb6, and we are using vb2010...hence my problem. I am not looking for an answer in code, but more to be pointed in the right direction, or maybe some classes that I do not know about.[code]...

Create A Tic-tac-toe Game But None Of The Tic-tac-toe Tutorials Use 2 Dimensional Arrays
Mar 14, 2010I am new to VB, trying to create a tic-tac-toe game but none of the tic-tac-toe tutorials use 2 dimensional arrays. Since tic-tac toe is 3x3 I created 9 buttons and want either an X or an O to appear depending on where the user clicks. I want one set of instructions to handle the multiple buttons. I was told to use Case statements.
This is what I have so far. Not sure how much is right but hopefully it gives you an idea of what I am looking for.

How To Create Simple Points System For Game
Mar 30, 2012I am creating a points system for a game, this is the code I have but it isn't working as I want it to.
Dim intScore As Integer = 10
Dim intNumOfGames As Integer = 0
intNumOfGames += 1
intScore = intScore - 2
The user will start will a score of 10, but everytime they click the button the user should lose 2 points off the score. But my code above that doesn't happen, when the user clicks the button it only happens once leaving the user with 8 points throughout the game.
