Hi,
I have been experimenting with raycasting algorithms in LiveCode. (To see if it
can be done at a reasonable frame rate, and to learn about raycasting at the
same time.)
There is now a demo that works, sort of. It's called Spider Hunt and you can
find it here.
It works fine in iOS7, but yes- it will change if all of your apps are
uninstalled. If you¹ll be supervising devices via Configurator I think
there's a way to prevent that, but I haven¹t played with it much.

One possibility is that the external works but that the page doesn't

Another possibility is that the modal dialog disaplays on top of the
browser window. The browser isn't a real control but a window drawn on
top of the stack window. Modal dialogs are drawn in a layer in front of
all other windows of an app, possibly including the browser windows.
That means
Hi jbv,
I don't think so, as the browser window might be rendered incorrectly on top
of a window that doesn't have a layer in front of itself anymore and because
the browser window is supposed to move with its parent window. Probably the
latter makes more sense than the former.

Hi Scott,
This looks like an interesting project you put together.
Just a note about your visible corner problem.
That has always been a problem in these games.
Something in the math I think as z approaches infinity?
The way most games solved this problem was to
use curved corner wall
The game works well, at 20 fps. Would it be possible to make the A and D keys
do strafing instead of turning?

No ideas on speeding it up. The only thought looking at the code is you
may want to replace 'char' with 'byte' ( and numToChar with numToByte)
since you are really dealing with bytes rather than characters and in
future LiveCode versions, char may not always correspond to a single byte.

Not sure, but it might make a difference if you update the cursor only

put 0 into x
repeat
add 1 to x
if x mod 10 = 0 then set cursor to busy
end repeat

Okay that makes sense. The debugger has the script open and therefore the
delete stack command does not succeed, and the statements that come after that
go ahead and execute. It’s the Delete Stack command that, when successful seems
to be FORCING the scrip to terminate.

What you are calling Scripts are actually Handlers. A Script is the entire
