VS 2008 Make Bounds For A Character That Can Jump?
May 25, 2010I am trying to make bounds for a character that can jump. I have made the character graphic into a rectangle and I have a square block in the game that the character must jump onto and I have set that as a rectangle.
How would I make it so when the character jumps onto the square block, he stays up there and then when he jumps down, and touches the ground, he stays on the ground. My current jump code is standardized; it does not detect changes in the Y-coordinate. What I have done in the jump for the character is I have made it so the Y-coordinate is increased by a certain amount and decreased by the same amount so the difference is equal to 0.
For example:
Character.LocationY += 8
Character.Location -= 8
Game Programming :: Make A Game In VB In Which Character Can Move Around, Jump, And Kill Things?
Apr 2, 2008im trying to make a game in visual basic in which your character can move around, jump, and kill things. I can get the picture box with the character to move and everything is fine. but i did run into one problem. when the character moves over a tree (or something) you can see the gray backround of the character as i made in paint. how do i make the backround of the picturebox transparent?

Jun 5, 2009As some of you may know, school is coming to close for summer recess, and final projects are coming up. My Computer Science teacher has asigned us an animation project. Basicly, all we have to do is make a game where we make a picturebox move using the arrow keys and it flips to face the direction its going in. This is a little easy for me, and i really want to go above and beyond and make my final project my best. So instead of little 2-D picture boxes moving choppily across the screen, can i push visual basic's limits and make a 3-D representation of a character in my game and use that with the arrow keys?

Oct 22, 2011This is actually not really a question about vb, but about how to make a code.I'm making a RPG game and I want to make my character have "normal" movement. The problem is actually when I just hold down one of my movement keys (a, s, d, w) my character will jump out of the screen because it's going to fast. here is my movement sub:
Private Sub frmMain_KeyDown(sender As Object, e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs) Handles Me.KeyDown

Jul 10, 2009I am working on a sub that essentially needs to open a text file, and replace all instances of a certain character with a unicode character. I'm trying to do this by reading the original text file byte by byte, converting it to a character, and then either adding that character to a memory stream or writing the unicode character to the memory stream. Then I'm saving the memory stream to the original file.

VS 2008 Random - New Character Out Of The String And Then Remove The Character From The List Of Characters
Dec 12, 2010[Code]...
For each character of this string I want a new character out of the string and then remove the character from the list of characters that still maybe used for other characters. It may not get the same character, you could basically just call this encryption, but it's not what I am making. I don't want to waste my time doing this one hour while VB can do this for me in <1 second.

View 3 RepliesJump 3 Lines In List?
May 6, 2012I have written code to download a webpage HTML source code into a .txt file, once downloaded, the code I posted here adds all lines as strings into a list and is supposed to find an anchor point as a position reference and then jump down the list to the real keyword.
I have an anchor point in this list that is a constant that I will always "know of" but I need to jump down 3 lines below this anchor point to the real keyword I'm looking for that is always "unknown to me" since it's a variable.
My anchor point is the keyword Hair Color which both the words and the line they're on are unique in the entire source code. My target keyword is the variable Brown (in this case), that I can't target directly because neither it nor the line it's on are unique and will change from query to query. The HTML table source code like the one below is always structured the same but some pages may vary in layout depending on the keywords applicable on the webpage. The code structure below however is always a constant, you can always count on all the webpages that the keyword Hair Color is always the 3 line into the table row and its variable is always 3 lines below that. So even though the answer I'm looking for is always 3 lines below my anchor point, my anchor point will not always be on the same line of code in the source code.
HTML code in the .txt file:
<tr>
<td class="paramname">
<b>Hair Color</b>
[Code].....
I may not be using the code correctly, through my attempts I don't know how to do that jump.
how to "skip" or "jump" down lines in my list by predefinition like: "ok, I found my anchor point, now I'm supposed to jump down 3 lines and pass what ever I find there to a string!""ok, I found my anchor point, now I'm supposed to go to the second instance of the keyword Brown from here that I find and pass what ever I find there to a string!"
Jump To A Next Case Statement?
Jun 20, 2009I am not sure what to do with the following. The code below reads from a massive list of phrases, checks for a certain conditions and if all succeed a) adds the output to the new_question list b) keeps the value of the variable incremental to "level_0".
If the fourth "if statement" fails, the code changes the value of the variable incremental to "level_1" and jumps to a second case statement. The problem is that for certain input the code fails form the "third if statement" and execution refuses to jump to "level_1" (bacause the fourth "if-statement" must fail as well). I tried moving the "incremental variable" between the third and the fourth "and if" but since the code reads from a list of phrases even if it returns true, execution jumps to level_1 (as some phrases fail from the third "if statement"). I hope I am making sense

Nested If Statements Jump Over Other Ifs
Feb 24, 2012I am working in a proprietary language based on basic on a measuring machine. I delibritly set the first two checks to fail for testing purposes. The first set of ifs for size X works great. When the code is run and it gets to Size_Y, if the operator picks "no I don't want to remeasure" (returning a 7) the code jumps all the way to the last end if. I suspect I have improperly nested my Ifthens, but I can't see it.
