Re: I highly Recommend the Sonus GDE
Ethen, thanks so much for showing me how close I was, that's great. But, it also shows how logical some one must be to program in general-purpose languages.
Now, Arronlp, I don't know how you code your site, but there really needs to be basic formatting, like headings, lists, and things like that where necessary. I know, plain text is great, but, I'd say, markup makes things more readable on the web. For example, if you use Markdown:
## Section 1 – How it works
The GDE allows users to create Sonus Interactive projects on their home computer and export it into a game the Sonus can then process and play.
A project will consist of 2 main components, which are Game Objects and Global Variables.
Developers can use Global Variables to hold the data the entire game needs to access such as the players health or money, complete and incomplete objectives, or perhaps their score.
Game Objects are the functioning components of the game. Each game object consists of 3 things.
1. A list of their own local variables, these are like global variables except they are relative to the game object. Other objects can access this data if the developer intends but once the Game Object is destroyed, its local variables are lost.
2. Properties such as X,Y and Z coordinates and boundary sizes which tell the game how big the Game Object is and how far other Game Objects have to be from it to trigger a collision event (more on events in a moment). It also has a property to tell the game whether the Game Object should loop audio when it plays it or only play it once. The last property is the delay property which tells the Game Object how often it should fire its "Periodical" event.
3. A Game Object has a list of what are called Events. These are things that can influence the Game Object in some way, here is a list of all the Events a Game Object has:...
Free grammar fixes as well. Really, if anyone needs a proofreader, I'll do my best.
Edit: there should also be a link to the next section of the tutorial after you finish reading a lesson.
