Make A 2 Player Game But Both Players Can't Move At Once Unless They Tap The Keys?
Aug 20, 2009
Well I am trying to make a 2 player game but both players can't move at once unless they tap the keys (can't hold the key down or the other person can't move). How would I fix this as well as being able to go diagonally.Would this work?:Declare a bool value for each keypress below the public class thingy. Then use keyup to turn the bool off and keydown makes it go on. Then for the first player and second player I check if they are on and if they are than go to that direction...I think I would need a timer for that part but I dunno...

So I am trying to make a program that allows you to move two shapes using two KeyPress events, one to move the first object and another for the second. It works, but it can only move one of the two objects, not both at the same time.

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?

How could I start making a Go game? I just need some logic for it, and maybe some code, and then I can do the rest. How can you tell if an area is enclosed, which areas on the board are full, etc.? I also need ideas on how to find infinite capture/retrieve cycles.

I decided to take up the task of writing an app for Dungeons and Dragons. I play with my friends and I'm trying to make it a little bit easier.Before every round of combat players roll dice for Initiative. It basically tells the games manager who goes first and in what order the rest of the players go. When players roll for initiative they roll 20 sided dice. On Form1 I have a button that says "Initiative" which opens another window where the manager would type in each players values. Then I want the program to take those values and order the players from highest to lowest in a list on Form1. Kind of like...

I want to make an ingame menu. When you open a game a menu will pop up with a hotkey. I don't need you to do the work for me I just need a sample of a ingame menu with a hot toggle (ie: the menu doesnt need an interface, a black square that pops up with key).

I have a way of moving a picturebox. I type either 1, 2, 3, or 4 in a textbox. Each number is assigned a direction. Then I click the mouse and the picturebox moves in that direction. This is a little cumbersome for a small video game. Is there a way to assign the four arrow keys to do this?

Ive been working on this for ages now i am supposed to b doing it in c# part i find it impossible so im doing it in Visual Basics
This is my current code atm:
Code:
Public Class Form1
Dim n As Integer
Dim oney As Integer
[CODE]...
Now i have the dice working and all that, the proplem is that to get the picturebox3 which is the players counter, if i do it the way im doing it atm its gonna take ages there must b a quicker way, i am thinking that arrays is suming i should use but im not that familier with them, i tryed this code using arrays:
Code:
bored(0) = PictureBox3.Location = New Point(210, 476)
bored(1) = PictureBox3.Location = New Point(270, 476)
bored(2) = PictureBox3.Location = New Point(320, 476)
[CODE]...
But when i tried clicking button 2 it didnt show the picture box at the right location it showed it at 0,0

I have a problem detecting whether one of the arrow keys is pressed, all the other keys seem to be detected apart from the arrow keys??? I have set key preview to True........ It detects the arrrow keys BUT ONLY if I have NO other controls on the form??? example..
Me.Text = e.keycode
It works, but then if I add a button for example, it stops.

I'm planning on creating a game on visual basic where the player goes through multiple levels to be able to clock the game, sort of like in the game 'Dooooooors'. How do I make a continue button where the players progress is already saved? What is the code? Would I be able to make it so that the gamer can only access the levels that they have completed, they can't play the unlocked levels yet.

I am developing a vb.net media application using Windows Media Player which is working fairly well. However, I am having problems where the Function key handler will stop working after doing anything on the media control panel, i.e. mute, move the slider etc. So long as I don't touch the panel everything continues to work. I'm using the function keys to pull up menus for selecting other media and if I do anything with the control panel I can no longer display the menus.

How would I check if a player has won the game? I've figured out that there is only eight possibilities for X and eight again for O which makes sixteen in total.Here is what I've tried so far..
If Square1.Text + Square2.Text + Square3.Text = "X" Then
MessageBox.Show("Player 1 has won the game!", "Player 1 wins!", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Exclamation)
End If
I thought that this code will only allow that message box to appear only if all of the squares have X as its text. But the message box appears when there is only one square with X. How can I make it so that the message box only appears when all 3 squares have an X.

I am working on a game using Visual Basic.NET and XNA. I am having trouble making the map scroll with the player. I can move the map at a square at a time(32x32) but I don't like the way it looks. I want to move at a fluid rate if possible. I want the player to be able to walk half-way through a square then see a half-square to either direction your moving. IE: Walking left, walk half-way through a square then to the far left of the map see half of the next square going to be drawn. But I don't want just half-way, I want to be able to just have fluid movement where you can walk to an 1/8th of the square and see the next 1/8th on the other side of screen if possible... To open this project and view you must have Windows Phone SDK installed can get it from Microsofts website......Note:Only up and down movement have been added into the game.

I create a mouse game for a single player. Set up a form with 4 rows of pictures boc controls. when a start button is clicked the mouse is "behind" one of the buttons while a stop image is behind 3 other picture boxes. The object of the game is to click the correct picturebox that contains the mouse. If the stop image appears before the mouse then the game is over. I don't understand how the logic works.

Im working on a Texas Hold'Em game and I am gonna make it so i can have 9 players in the game, I put 9 blank labels on my form and a button. What im looking to do is have an input box pop up and ask for a player name. That part is easy enough and i got that, now im looking for the most efficient way to put what i put in the input box into the 9 labels. Should i have multiple input box variables, each one to handle a label? I know thats not very efficient which is why i wasnt leaning toward that. What i had tried doing was having the input box fill a listbox, which i got that to work fine, but i ran into issues with loading whats in my listbox to my labels. Its my assumption since its trying to load the stuff in the listbox to a label before its even there, it gives an error such as the array is outside of the index. I tried a Do until loop to tell it to do the input box, fill the listbox, and then try to read from it but my problem came is what if only 5 players are playing and the program is trying to read 9 players.
