VS 2008 Make Bounds For A Character That Can Jump?

May 25, 2010

I 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

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.

How To Jump To Next Statement From For Or For Each (like Braces But In Vb) In Visual Studio 2008

Feb 17, 2010

Does anyone know the keyboard shortcut to jump from the start of a For / For Each (or If, While, etc.) block to the end of it in visual studio if you're using vb.net? I found the following which I thought would work but doesn't : Go to Matching Brace in Visual Studio?

Following the comment there I checked Tools/Options/Environment/Keyboard for the Edit.GotoBrace command which is mapped to Ctrl + å in Swedish.Vb.net doesn't use braces per se, but in the following example:

For Each Foo in Bar
Do lots of stuff
Next

I would have thought that the same command should jump me from the For Each to the "Next" but it doesn't do anything. Is there another command (or should that command work but something is broken locally?)

VS 2008 Debugging Index Out Of Bounds?

May 9, 2009

including the runtime error message I receive that keeps killing my application. I am about to pull my hair out because I cannot find anything wrong with the code, and I do not get the error when debugging the application in VB! Basically a user enters some medical information on a form in text boxes and adds some medical conditons and medications into two listbox controls on the form, on for medical problems and one for medications they are on. When Button1 (command button) is clicked, it calls a subroutine stored in a module1. Then the application throws and Index out of Bounds error and crashes, losing all information that was entered. Here is the code on Button1:

Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnNext5.Click
Call Store_MedData
End Sub

Here is the code for Store_MedData in the module. The error occurs on red text:

Dim ClientLastName as string, ClientMI as String, ClientFirstName as string, ClientAddress as String, _
ClientAddress2 as String, ClientCity as String, ClientState as String, ClientZip as String, ClientDOB as String, _
ClientBloodType as String,ClientActiveMeds(frmmain.lstActiveMeds.Items.Count - 1) As String, _
ClientActiveMedProbs(frmmain.lstActiveMedProbs.Items.Count - 1) as String

VS 2008 Navigating My Code - Flow Can Jump From Place To Place

Mar 11, 2010

Like I imagine everyone, I often have problems navigating my code because the flow can jump from place to place. For example, if my code calls routine1, and I then want to go to routine1's code, I know that I can click in the dropdown menu and it will take me to that sub. But wouldn't it be easier if I could somehow right click on the call to routine way and select something like 'take me there' which would transport me from the function making the call to the code for the function being called? Then it would be easy to hop from place to place.
