Re: Achieving sound rotation using PySFML? You might want to check the documentation to figure out if the functions accepts radians or degrees.If it only accepts radians then you'll need to convert them over from degrees.

Re: Help with movement on Map in Python
Re: Help with movement on Map in Python I haven't used python, so I don't know if this is correct. I think what you're running into is an issue with your event.key variable.I don't think it's updating after each frame, so when you push up, it sets the key to up, but I'm not sure if it's clearing it or not after it loops back to the top. So it's true every time. HTH.

Re: BGT help please.
Re: BGT help please. In English, when you write something someone is saying, it's called a quote. You put a quotation mark at the beginning and end of the words the person is saying. Much in the same way you do when coding. I think what you are getting hung up on is it saying left quote. This is possibly a screen-reader feature that is meant to help you keep track of them all. To use quotes all you have to do is put an opening quote like this, ", press shift ', and then to end it just put another one, ".

You only should ever have one void main() line in your script.the alert function only takes two pieces of data, what will be displayed in the title bar, and what the dialogue box will say.

Re: BGT help please.
Re: BGT help please.
Here is how I would write what I think you are trying to do here.//Declares a variable called mangos and asigns 4 as the value.int' mangoes=4;//Declares a variable called apples, and asigns 5 as the value.int apples=5;//Declares a variable called fruit_basket and has the value set to mangos plus apples, which is 9 according to our previous declarations.int fruit_basket=mangoes+apples; //This is our main function, a function is a portion of code that is only executed when the function is called. The main function is the very first function that is run after a program is compiled, it's the master function in a way. To tell the compiler what things go inside of the function you use { and }. You just put your code within those two braces as shown in the example below.void main() { alert("hello", "I am a BGT script!");alert("Counting Fruit", "The contents of the fruit basket
are as follows, there are "+apples+" apples, and "+mangos+" mangos. In total there are "+fruit_basket+" fruits in the basket.");}

Re: reducing lag in a bgt game?
Re: reducing lag in a bgt game?
Instead of calling wait in each iteration of the loop, try setting up a timer to only wait after so many milliseconds. So something liketimer time;while(true){1+1;if(time.elapsed>=500){wait(2);time.restart();}}This is more beneficial for you because if you tried looping through 50 enemies and you wait 2 ms on each loop, that's 100 ms per loop just from you telling it to wait that long. Throw in a bunch of other things it needs to loop through and you'll run into more issues.Wait is only important so that the processor doesn't stay at 100 percent for any extended period of time, and to allow other programs access to it. The small calculations you're doing in an audio game are severely minimal compared to most mainstream games that run on the computers we have today, so you really shouldn't be running into lag due to the processor. If you're experiencing lag, it's more than
likely either the lack of wait functions, or the over use of wait-functions.

Re: BGT Coding Class
Re: BGT Coding Class
I'm unsure what manual you are refering to. Braces tell the language that this bit of code is only to be executed if the statement before is executed. So take the following for example.//We are declaring a variable here of type string, strings are what is used to hold characters and numbers. We're calling it MyName, and giving it the initial value of Josh. The quotes around it let it know that it's converting the characters within into numbers the computer can understand. The ; tells the language that this bit of code is done and it can move onto the next sequence of instructions, which in this case would be the main function.string MyName="Josh";//Declaring our opening function. This will almost always be void main(){}. Within this function will be where your main gameloop will more than likely end up going. A program cannot run without this function, and it almost always contains some kind of infinite loop, I prefer do loops, but while
loops work as well. If you donb't know what those are, refer to the bgt help manual, or just google for loops, while loops, or fruit loops, mmm..void main(){//Our if statement. This takes two properties and compares them as long as they're compatible. In this case it compares the contents of our variable MyName, and uses the opperator !=, which means does not equal, and checks against our raw value, "Sneak". So in plane english, this reads, if the variable MyName does not contain the word Sneak, then execute the code below within the braces. If(MyName!="Sneak"){//This is a pointless execution of code. If the if statement returns true, it will set MyName to be equal to Sneak. If it is already Sneak, then this code does not get executed.MyName="Sneak";}}HTH.Just make sure to keep track of your braces. I like to label mine. To make NVDA read out punctuation, press NVDA P unti
l it says most. That's usually where I like to keep mine when I'm coding.

360 sound positioning code and working example
360 sound positioning code and working example
So for the past day or so I've been plagued by a sound positioining code problem I was having. Basicly, I didn't understand what I was doing, and I was trying to re-invent the wheel. Either way, what came of it was this, and I figured I might save someone else the trouble of doing what I did and what not. So here's the code to pan and pitch bend a sound according to it's location in relation to the player.void thetaPos(double soundA, double soundB, sound@ SoundHandle, double myA, double myB, double myTheta){double absolutetheta;double relativetheta;double tempH;double tempV;double tVolume;double temp1 = soundA-myA;double temp2 = myB - soundB;double d1=power(temp1, 2);double d2=power(temp2,2);double d=square_root(d1+d2);if(d<75){SoundHandle.play_looped();if(temp1>0){absolutetheta=arc_tangent(temp2/temp1);}else if(temp1<0) {
absolutetheta=arc_tangent(temp2/temp1)-90;}else if(x == 0){ if (y > 0){absolutetheta=90;}else if(temp2<0){absolutetheta=-90;} else if (y == 0){absolutetheta=-1;}}absolutetheta=absolutetheta*(180 /pi);relativetheta = absolutetheta -myTheta;tempH=cosine((relativetheta*pi/180));SoundHandle.pan=tempH*100;tempV=sine((relativetheta*3.14/180));tVolume=(d*-100)/75;{}if(tempV>0){SoundHandle.volume=tVolume; SoundHandle.pitch=80+absolute(tempH*20);}else{SoundHandle.volume=tVolume; SoundHandle.pitch=120-absolute(tempH*20);}}else{SoundHandle.pause();}}The example below will work if you copy and paste it into a new file and adjust the sound path to the sound of your own choosing. Don't forget to make it a .bgt file.//Decla

The 80+ the absolute value of tempH tells the code if the sound is behind us, set it's pitch to 80, the further it is to the extreme left or right, the higher pitch it is. The line in the if statement where pitch is equal to tempH/20 does the exact opposite, making it the highest pitch when it's directly in front of us, and lower pitched when it's to the far right or far left.All that's really important about this code is that it moves the sound left to right and changes the volume and pitch based on the location in the stereo field. When it's directly behind us, it's the lowest pitch, when it's in front of us it's the highest pitch... I hope I'm e
xplaining this well enough LOL.Just try the example out and you'll see what I mean.*/

Re: A mysterious divide by 0 error I'm unable to replicate this bug. Can you paste the code exactly as it appears? Going off of this though, I'd say your bug is somewhere else. That if statement should take care of any divide by 0 errors that come about unless some how the value of u changes mid-way through the script's execution.Also, makes sure u and dist are compatible variables for what you're wanting to do.

Re: Oculus Rift + 3D sound
Re: Oculus Rift + 3D sound The first solution that comes to mind with the issue you're having with not being able to give the tester a sense of the building's size or shape would be to do something similar to the following.1. Have the rod be extendable to a set distance in front of the user. 2. Whenever any part of the rod touches something it plays a combination of tones to create one sound. It doesn't have to be a looping sound; a quick blip would suffice I think.3. This blip would be composed of two tones, one high, one low.4. The low tone would give the tester a sense of how wide that particular wall is, because it'll run a loop to determine how far it is from each edge horizontal starting from the spot where their rod hit the wall or object. This data will be used to change the pitch of this low note depending on where in that horizontal line the rod falls. The high note will be exactly the same as the low note in mechanics, except that it would represent the vertical measurement.5. The combination of these two tones will create a audible cross-hair and will allow the details of the oddly shaped structures you'll more than likely be recreating more fully appreciated by those without sight.6. Have the tester be able to press a control to have the blip play repeatedly if the rod is already in contact with the object. This gives them more control over how much information is being given to them.Hope this helps.

Re: Oculus Rift + 3D sound
Re: Oculus Rift + 3D sound It would help if you gave us an idea of what you'd like your game to be. Making a game accessible for the blind is actually quite simple. You just have to convert the things you see into some kind of audio clue. For example a person's health meter might change colors depending on how low it is. To make this information available to a blind individual, rather than having a synth voice read out the change, you can simply add a small noise or even heavy breathing to indicate low health. I know in the VR space it's possible to touch objects. Since the sense of touch doesn't transfer with VR headsets, you can have a short description of the item read out by a screen reader as the player comes into contact with it. The same can go for rooms. Sounds and text is enough to convey most anything. You can take a look at the screen reader NVDA as it is free, and open source. It offers all sorts of ways to communicate with your programs. You can even have your ga me copy the text you wish to have read out to the blind player and an add-on in the screen reader will read it off automatically. In fact I believe Skullgirls used this method for some time.My personal advise would be to make a horror game. Audio is the best at scaring the crap out of people.

Re: Project C.A.T.
Re: Project C.A.T. So I spent a couple hours this morning coming up with some new features for a secondary game mode. I updated the cite as well, but I'll also paste it here for your convenience.Hey guys, so I’ve recently done an entire re-design of the project, or maybe it should be referred to as an addition. The overall mechanics will be the same, and the original mode, that is team versus team in an urban setting killing each other to determine who is best will also remain an option. However, in my original plans I had decided that I would not add enemies to the map that are controlled by AI. This is no longer the case. In fact, an entirely new mode will also be added that allows a group of players to spawn their avatars on a map similar to the arena in the second book of “The Hunger Games”. The clock arena if you will. I’ll go into more details about it below. Visualizing the Big PictureThe main principle of this game mode is that there will be an over map of a 3 by 3 grid. If you have a hard time picturing this, think of two straight vertical (up and down) lines that are spaced about an inch next to each other. Now picture two more lines, but this time horizontal (laying sideways) and have a little space between each other. They should also intersect the vertical lines in a way that creates a square box in the middle. So hopefully now you are picturing what most would call the hash tag symbol, or the number sign.“What’s that sound?”This symbol also looks like a three by three grid that has been sectioned off into 9 different quadrants. Now, each of those quadrants are like boxes. They will contain certain unique characteristics that give them benefits and some non-benefits… Like 10 lightning strikes in a quadrant every 3 seconds, or a pack of mutated moles who dig up from the ground and chase your avatar down. If that’s not your cup of tea, try for The quadrant referred to as “Death’s Touch” by most living individuals. This name was fashioned after its flora’s poisonous contact. This means any touching, rubbing, bumping, or idiots blindly running through any plant life will result in a long and painful demise. At least you won’t have to deal with the Earth deciding it’s tired of your avatar waiting around and rips the ground beneath their feet wide open sending them plummeting to their eternal entombment. I literally had to edit this because I forgot to put in that this was actually a thing that will happen. LOL, My bad.How’s this for “Hashtag the struggle is real.”.If dealing with this map wasn’t enough, remember that group of people you arrived with? Yeah, well they’re trying to kill your avatar’s face off with anything and everything. Y’know that plant life I mentioned earlier? Seems if you’re careful enough you can grab a branch and grant “Death’s Kiss” on any avatar who is unlucky to be caught unawares, or lucky, depending on how you look at it. At least nobody tried to blow your avatar’s legs off with a tripwire plastic explosive. “Ooooh, a loot box for me?”, BOM!Not all of humanity is entirely obsessed with big swords and muscles. Sometimes smart people can resort to very crafty acts of destruction. Like setting one of those trip wire explosives in front of an enticing loot box. “Wait, I didn’t win?

Unless your avatar is wielding a giant claymore, in which case violence will get you about 6 feet through anything your avatar cares to point it at. To be the winner you will first have to be one of four players who is able to reach a defense point. There is a single defense location in each quadrant. Only one player can be in each quadrant’s defense location for it to count down. The first four players who are able to secure their quadrants defense location for a minute will advance to the next stage of the match. This will grant the players temporary immunity from one another. You will have about 3 minutes to go out and collect items and goods.

You’ll be able to review your stats at any time, and they will be remembered as you play. Anyway, I hope you all have enjoyed this update. I’ll be working on this part of the project as I wrap up the first mode just so it gives me something new to think about.

Re: Project C.A.T.
Re: Project C.A.T. So I spent a couple hours this morning coming up with some new features for a secondary game mode. I updated the cite as well, but I'll also paste it here for your convenience.Hey guys, so I’ve recently done an entire re-design of the project, or maybe it should be referred to as an addition. The overall mechanics will be the same, and the original mode, that is team versus team in an urban setting killing each other to determine who is best will also remain an option. However, in my original plans I had decided that I would not add enemies to the map that are controlled by AI. This is no longer the case. In fact, an entirely new mode will also be added that allows a group of players to spawn their avatars on a map similar to the arena in the second book of “The Hunger Games”. The clock arena if you will. I’ll go into more details about it below. Visualizing the Big PictureThe main principle of this game mode is that there will be an over map of a 3 by 3 grid. If you have a hard time picturing this, think of two straight vertical (up and down) lines that are spaced about an inch next to each other. Now picture two more lines, but this time horizontal (laying sideways) and have a little space between each other. They should also intersect the vertical lines in a way that creates a square box in the middle. So hopefully now you are picturing what most would call the hash tag symbol, or the number sign.“What’s that sound?”This symbol also looks like a three by three grid that has been sectioned off into 9 different quadrants. Now, each of those quadrants are like boxes. They will contain certain unique characteristics that give them benefits and some non-benefits… Like 10 lightning strikes in a quadrant every 3 seconds, or a pack of mutated moles who dig up from the ground and chase your avatar down. If that’s not your cup of tea, try for The quadrant referred to as “Death’s Touch” by most living individuals. This name was fashioned after its flora’s poisonous contact. This means any touching, rubbing, bumping, or idiots blindly running through any plant life will result in a long and painful demise. At least you won’t have to deal with the Earth deciding it’s tired of your avatar waiting around and rips the ground beneath their feet wide open sending them plummeting to their eternal entombment. How’s this for “Hashtag the struggle is real.”.If dealing with this map wasn’t enough, remember that group of people you arrived with? Yeah, well they’re trying to kill your avatar’s face off with anything and everything. Y’know that plant life I mentioned earlier? Seems if you’re careful enough you can grab a branch and grant “Death’s Kiss” on any avatar who is unlucky to be caught unawares, or lucky, depending on how you look at it. At least nobody tried to blow your avatar’s legs off with a tripwire plastic explosive. “Ooooh, a loot box for me?”, BOM!Not all of humanity is entirely obsessed with big swords and muscles. Sometimes smart people can resort to very crafty acts of destruction. Like setting one of those trip wire explosives in front of an enticing loot box. “Wait, I didn’t win?

Notebooks of Lazarus Long
Notebooks of Lazarus Long Hey guys. So I was doing a little googling this morning, and I came across this interesting read. For new programmers, and indeed even veterans, this book will prove to be a fun read. For example, here's a few quotes from the excerpts."Most “scientists” are bottle washers and button sorters.""A “pacifist male” is a contradiction in terms. Most self-described “pacifists” are not pacific; they simply assume false colors. When the wind changes, they hoist the Jolly Roger."This is by far my favorite "A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects!" This is the quote that allowed me to stumble upon this collection. Anyhoo, I hope you guys will take the time to check it out, you can go to this website to read the notebook, but there's also the actual book as well which you should also take a gander at.http://www.angelfire.com/or/sociologyshop/lazlong.html URL: http://forum.audiogames.net/viewtopic.php?pid=260725#p260725 ___ Audiogames-reflector mailing list Audiogames-reflector@sabahattin-gucukoglu.com https://sabahattin-gucukoglu.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/audiogames-reflector

Re: What was the first game you ever made?
Re: What was the first game you ever made? I think my first fully functional audio game is the brain warp re-creation mind warp, which can be found at the link Below.https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/818 … ndWarp.zipI think it displays all text to the title bar, and the message strings aren't too long so you should be able to read it without trouble for those who don't need screen readers.I think I posted the source code on another topic, but you might have to dig for it. It was a pretty good experience. I learned the importance of for loops, arrays, and functions. I've got at least a dozen other projects that were never completed, but served to teach me something new each time.Actually as I was just about to press submit, I remembered the first game I made was a campaign script for swamp. I'm not sure it's still functional with the current version, but I'll post that link as well as the other scripts. Oh yeah, I think I even made a pac-man game with the swamp campaign scripts.Pac-man scripts.https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/818 … mpagne.zipMy first campaign script.https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/818 … mpagne.zipMy tutorial entry for swamp.ziphttps://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/818 … mpagne.zipThis was the last campaign I was working on, I'm almost certain this is buggy as all get up.https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/818 … 0march.zipSo I guess the swamp scripting language was my first entrance into coding.

BGT Coding Class
BGT Coding Class So I've been trying to get myself motivated and pump out my card game. My original idea was to record the coding sessions, then edit it, and then put it up on youtube for you all to listen too. I've decided against that idea, and instead I will be attempting to host classes to code in BGT.I say attempt because I'm not sure of my teaching capabilities, though I think it'll go just fine.I do have some basic obvious requirements for joining.1. You have a stable and reliable internet connection.2. You have a decent microphone.3. You wear headphones, or some other solution so we can't hear our feedback or your screenreader.4. You've downloaded and installed the latest version of BGT.5. You speak and understand english at a proficient level.That's pretty much it. If you're a beginner, or if you've never even wrote out a hello world program, you're especially invited. Though experienced code rs are also welcome, I don't claim to be the best, but I do have a solid foundation, and I hope to pass that on to any that want to listen. If all parties are okay with it I'd like to record the sessions and then provide them for others to listen to.If you'd like to join the course, you can add me on skype at alexander16262, or mention me on twitter @alex_agostino. You can also send me an email at alexander.agost...@gmail.com.Let your friends know or anybody else in the community who you think might be interested.

Re: Using handles in bgt somewhat confuse me
You're using the same sound object for each drone I'm guessing. I haven't looked at the code yet, but from your description of what's going on it's the first thing that comes to mind.You'll want to stick the sound object into the drone class.so like thisclass drone{sound droneSound;droneSound.load("sounds/drone.ogg");}Then put this in the main loopdrone.droneSound.play();drone.droneSound.pan(position);Position is your drone's position on the board. I'll go ahead and have a look at the code now, sorry if this wasn't the right answer.

Re: Using handles in bgt somewhat confuse me
Re: Using handles in bgt somewhat confuse me I think a simpler way of defining it is by comparing it to the phrase "that one". Extremely vaigue without some kind of context, like a finger pointing. So the phrase stays the same, but what you're refering to doesn't. So I like that one and pointing to a red honda civic in a line of red honda civics, with the only difference being that this one has 32000 less miles on it than the rest. I think that's a good analogy, Let me know if I'm completely wrong though.

Re: ideas for grid scanning system?
Re: ideas for grid scanning system?
Having a hard time concentrating enough to fully flesh out this idea, but basicly you're wanting to create an alternative forloop manually. Here's what I have so far, let me know if it helps or not. idk. Assuming your grid is held in a 2d arrayint[][] grid;void main(){grid.resize(10);for(int x=0; x<10; x++){grid[x].resize(10);}}void checkGrid(int x, int y){int uX=x+1;int dX=x-1int uY=y+1;int dY=y-1;int result=grid[x][y];if(grid[uX][y]==result){}if(grid[dX][y]==result){}if(grid[x]uY]==result){}if(grid[x][dY]==result){}}}int checkSquares(int x, int y){int uX=x+1;int dX=x-1int uY=y+1;int dY=y-1;int result=grid[x][y];if(grid[uX][y]==result){return grid[uX][y];}if(grid[dX][y]==result){return grid[dX][y];<
br />}if(grid[x]uY]==result){return grid[x][uY];}if(grid[x][dY]==result){return grid[x][dY];}}}It needs a lot more work to get it working, but hopefully it is enough to help you think in another direction. GF is wanting to watch house with me, so sorry. If you haven't figured it out by the time I get some more time I'll pick it back up and post it here.

Re: Using handles in bgt somewhat confuse me
They're a little weird, but if you just play around with them you'll figure it out. The main use I've gotten out of them is when creating object arrays. Seriously, they're useful.Here's an example, maybe it'll be helpful, maybe not.sound@ [] sounds; //Creates an array of sound objects with 0 entries.void main(){show_game_window("Testing handles");do{if(key_pressed(KEY_SPACE)){if(sounds.length()<10)//This will prevent there from being more than 10 entries created in the array.{sounds.insert_last(sound());//Creates a sound object and places it at the end of the array.int entry=sounds.length()-1;//Gives us a variable to reference the last entry so we can load and play it.sounds[entry].load("c:\\windows\\media\\ding.wav");//Load the file into the sound object located within the sounds array.sounds[entry].play_looped();//Plays the sound in a loo
psounds[entry].pan=-100;//Gives all sounds a base pan of -100;}}for(uint x=0; x

Re: Good dedicated servers/vps?
Re: Good dedicated servers/vps? Um, I don't know if this is what you are talking about, but It's capable of sending out TCP and UDP packets. You can choose which to send, you can also set up channels to listen on so you're not getting your UDP backed up or lost due to TCP packets being laggy. If this isn't what you're talking about then excuse me. Anyway, this isn't meant to be a long term thing. It isn't like I'm creating [[wow]] or anything, it's just a little project I have. If it crashes and burns that's fine. I don't really intend on having it up for more than a few months. As far as the VPS and dedicated servers go, I think I'll just try it out on my home connection first since you're saying I'll have pretty shit luck using one. I don't want to have to recode this stuff in another language because I'll feel like I'm making little to no progress. Once I'm finished with this one I might switch to another, but so far I h aven't had any issues with it. I need to experience first hand what people are talking about. Sorry, they're not TCP, it calls them reliable and unreliable, but there's a note at the bottom that says all of the communication is donne with UDP.

Re: Good dedicated servers/vps?
Re: Good dedicated servers/vps? 250 a year isn't bad. If it's a game that everybody enjoys and something people show a genuine interest in I don't mind paying that much. I've optimized the code to require as little traffic as possible, but even so it's still quite a bit. I was only going to run it from my home server for initial testing since I had the extra machine, and to see how well it worked. I don't have t1 or anything, just 50 megs up and 50 down. I did the math, and for it to run without a hitch with it's current packet size and frequency of request, it'd have to be able to transmit at 11.3 kbps, and this is with around 25 peers connected, which is why I thought it would be enough to handle it.

Good dedicated servers/vps?
Good dedicated servers/vps? So, I have run into a bit of a problem.I was intending to run my game using an old computer I was given. It has a cracked screen, and the people who owned it had no use for it. I got a portable version of NVDA on their, and I can use it, but I can't do a full install which is what I need in order to access the log in dialogue in order to switch users to an administrative one. I need to do this in order to assign a static IP, and adjust the firewall to allow my game to access the net. Now my next option is to find a dedicated server or VPS to host it. I don't know much about them, and my short bout of googling has left me rather warey of them all. I'm unsure of which ones are good, and which ones are bad. If any of you can provide me with some companies that are good then please post here. Thanks. Alternatively, if you have any ideas on how I can get an administrative account loaded on my computer, that would do just as well.The computer doesn' t have an HDMI port so I can't have sighted help doing it.

Knowing your server's capacity
Knowing your server's capacity Is there any way to test how well your server is going to handle large numbers of connections? I only have 4 people on my team so far, and obviously it holds up well, but I'm not sure if it'll be able to handle, say, 40 connections, much less 80. Is there anything I can do to get a good idea of what to expect at those levels? I might be able to have this hosted on a commercial hosting site, but the data flow isn't intense enough for me to really go for that right now, and so it's currently being hosted on my home connection of 50 megs up and 50 megs down. I have a completely seperit machine to host it once I've got it ready for public release, so I don't have to worry about my own computer resources having issues.

Re: Question about class construction, variables, and handles in BGT
Re: Question about class construction, variables, and handles in BGT So I've gone through and worked it all out in my head and I believe this solves my problems just fine. The only thing I'm having a hard time deciding is if I want to put my movement code, weapon code, and collision code in the account class, or if I want to have the functions run forloops with the accounts. From my understanding this problem pretty much equates to deciding if you should write 2+3=5 or 3+2=5. Is there a factor that I'm just not thinking of that would determine which direction I should go with this?

Re: Question about class construction, variables, and handles in BGT
Re: Question about class construction, variables, and handles in BGT
It might be helpful down the road, but not what I'm trying to figure out right now. I need the client to be able to send a packet of information to the server, the server will parse that information out into account name and password, then use that account name and password to create an instance of the account class. I can pass the password off as an argument in the constructor, but I don't know how to make the actual handle vary with each new packet.This is what I want to happen.//client codevoid ClientCreateAccount(){//send a username and password to the server with the word createaccount in front of them.}//server codevoid main(){do{if(network.type=="receive& contains "createaccount"){//parse out the packet for the username and password into variables called username and password respectively.account username(password);}while(!ke
y_pressed(KEY_ESCAPE);}This is just suto code, I know I'm missing some stuff in the above code, but should be enough to give you a better idea of what I'm trying to do.

Question about class construction, variables, and handles in BGT
Alright, so currently I'm working on getting account code set up for my game.However I'm having an issue coming up with a way for my server to call my account class and assign that account with a unique name. The following piece of code might explain my predicament better.string accountname="john";class account{//account code goes here.}void maine(){account accountname;}For the idea I have to work, accountname needs to be seen as a variable, rather than an actual name. The result I want from the above code is to end up with an account class called john if that isn't clear. I haven't tried implementing this idea into my code yet because I'm almost certain it will fail. I think I might be able to use it as a handle like so though.string accountname;class account{//account code goes here.}void maine(){account @accountname;}
However, I'm not too familiar with using handles, so again I'm almost certain this won't work.If anybody has any suggestions on how to make this work, I'd appreciate it.Thanks.
