Great! The game would be really great if it wasn't for the lag.

I'm guessing it's on the spammers' movement code somewhere, it seems to get drastically worse each time a new one enters the pen. Above about 12-15 spammers, my PC just doesn't handle it, even on LoQ, and my specs aren't that bad.

I wasn't actually expectiong the blam want to just be rotation, i was busy thinking of overly complecated ways to do it, without even seeing the obvious piss simple solution:D

Silly me.

Well i dont know, i got rid of all the Math.sqrt's here's the code:

Wuh..... I ain't analysing that lump ;S
I'd hazard a guess that the performance would improve if you used a square bin, rather than a circular one (the calculations required for hitting the edges would be a lot less), but then it wouldn't look half as cool.

actually the circular part is faster. I got rid of the sqrt for it.

i took the xdistance from the center and ydist from the center
xdist*xdsit+ydist*ydist for pythagorean theorem. But instrad of taking the root, i just chacked if it was > 300^2
not that processor intesnive.

I cant fing the lag problem.

Thought the same thing, there's lots of == true and stuff like that. But I can't find a lag causer in there.

Denvish's theory is interesting, there is after all quite many noobs to perform trig equations on, every frame. Not sure though.

God i missed it! But not next year!

i dont have any == true in there..

Erm... Hey, glaiel? What about the hitTests? having too many hitTests going on at the same time may cause lags. o.o At least so ive heard.

only 1 hittest per n00b

Yeah. But.

You are having 1 hitTest per n00b. And, say there are 12 n00bs. thats already 12 hitTests.

Then i assume (i didnt quite play your game too much) there will be hitTests for the circle. Or, checking that if the n00bs hit eachother.. or i dont know. Any other hitTests may cause it lag.

12 isnt a lot

nope, nope, and nope

Also, can't this bit

stat == 1 ? this.gotoAndStop(1) : null;
stat == 2 ? this.gotoAndStop(2) : null;
stat == 3 ? this.gotoAndStop(3) : null;
stat == 4 ? this.gotoAndStop(4) : null;
stat == 5 ? this.gotoAndStop(5) : null;

become

_currentframe!=stat ? gotoAndStop(stat) : 0

Or if you have a stat 6 (Which I think you do) then:

stat!=6? _currentframe!=stat ? gotoAndStop(stat) : 0 : 0

At 12/5/05 03:28 PM, Glaiel_Gamer wrote: nope, nope, and nope

So, the only hitTest used is for the n00bs? oh well. Then i have no idea.

I tossed a little message on the front page about Denvish day, but someone will probably bump it out. We should all use our super powers to try and keep it up there all day.

I have to thank Denvish for helping me out with AS, even if he had no idea he was helping me.

Thanks!

All you have proved with that IM convo is that you were being a right dick

shit i didnt realise it was Denvish day today. i thought there was still like a month in it. ah well, missed it now

Toast IM me when you get on.

NJ, a right dick its better than being a flat one

Toast.. Denvish Day is today, hence the front page submissions by Glaiel and Fulp =P
