... No need to move arrays at all. I would implement it as a 2D array that represents the playing area. Each cell in the array is either empty, a snake section...
... Instead of moving all the data in the array, try just tacking on the new data point and adjusting the starting and ending indexes that you are displaying....
Instead of shifting the whole of the array, you can make an integer point to the head/tail and increase that by one. X X X X X 3 2 X X X 1 X X X 0 X Here the...
I'm looking to create a utility similar to "Mappy" for creating levels for my next game. I could use Mappy but I want something I can customize to my specific...
Hi All, I am looking for help to debug my game, called "Frog". It is a retro-remake of an old Commodore PET game, circa 1981. I use bitmap character fonts and...
I'm looking to design a simple protocol for sending data from a client to a server. As this is to be used in a network game I'm trying to keep the size as...

Hello Hajile, ... If I remember correctly, Delphi will create label1, label2, etc. If you want to use them in an array you have to declare such array and ...
Is anyone in this group familiar with Truevision3D engine ? I am using it with Delphi but am a bit lost with creating some simple gui controls with it (an edit...

Hi Ian, If you download the full install there are about 13 delphi tutorials included. If you follow the links on their websites the other websites provide a...
I have not found any specific Delphi controls for doing what you ask, but there are essentially two high-quality routes to choose from that I know of: #1 -...
There is a lot out there to pick from, you just have to know how to find it. Unfortunately, I believe it will be very difficult if impossible to find any ...
That looks like a really good option. I notice also that they support DWG up to release 2006, which is exceptional. I agree that this would be a good place...
Thanks for all your help. I have tried out a few libraries and have got an idea of what is available. The project that required this functionality is only in...
Hello "Ian Munro" ... Would love to, but to far away from me. (Live in NC USA) And do not have the extra funds for the trip. Hopefully those that will attend...
