I'm sortof confused on this. I got a delta time routine on this site. I'm not even sure if delta is the best way to go. I've only found a thousand topics on it. Like in allegro the way I set up the time the keyboard and logic was seperate from the drawing. So im wandering if I do the same with delta. Its very jumpy now with both of them in the same loop.. Its set up like this.
While (Not KeyHit(KEY_ESCAPE))
DLT_RefreshDLT()
DLT_MyAppDelta.SetNewFPS(65.0)
If (DLT_MyScreenUpdate > DLT_MyAppRefresh) Then
Cls()
DLT_UpdateScreen(DLT_MyScreenUpdate , player)
DLT_MyScreenUpdate = DLT_MyScreenUpdate - DLT_MyAppRefresh
Flip(False)
EndIf
Wend
Function DLT_UpdateScreen(DeltaTime:Float = 1 , pl:Player_T)
Local DLT_GetDeltaFPS = DLT_MyAppDelta.GetDeltaFPS()
Local DLT_GetRealFPS = DLT_MyAppDelta.GetRealFPS()
pl.UpdateDraw()
pl.UpdateLogic(DeltaTime)
pl.UpdateKeyboard(DeltaTime)
DrawText("FPS : "+DLT_GetRealFPS , 0 , 0)
End Function
Type Player_T
Field x: Float
Field y: Float
Field img: TImage
Field frame: Int
Field animTimer: Int = MilliSecs()
Field animSpeed: Int = 150
Field walk: Byte
Field stand: Byte = 0
Field walkFwd: Byte = 1
Field walkBack: Byte = 2
Field walkRight: Byte = 3
Field walkLeft: Byte = 4
Method CreatePlayer(x:Float , y:Float)
self.x = x
self.y = y
self.walk = walkFwd
End Method
Method UpdateDraw()
self.AnimateUpdate()
DrawImage(self.img , x , y , self.frame)
End Method
Method UpdateLogic(deltTime:Float)
End Method
Method UpdateKeyboard(deltTime:Float)
Select self.walk
Case (KeyDown(KEY_UP))
self.walk = walkFwd
self.y :- (1.5 * deltTime)
Case (KeyDown(KEY_DOWN))
self.walk = walkBack
self.y :+ (1.5 * deltTime)
Case (KeyDown(KEY_RIGHT))
self.walk = walkRight
self.x :+ (1.5 * deltTime)
Case (KeyDown(KEY_LEFT))
self.walk = walkLeft
self.x :- (1.5 * deltTime)
Default self.walk = stand
End Select
End Method
Method AnimateUpdate()
Select self.walk
Case walkFwd
self.WalkFwdAnimate()
Case walkBack
Case walkRight
Case walkLeft
Default self.frame = 0
End Select
End Method
Method WalkFwdAnimate()
If ((MilliSecs() - animTimer) > animSpeed)
animTimer = MilliSecs()
self.frame :+ 1
EndIf
If (self.frame > 1) self.frame = 0
End Method
End Type
its just what im working with now. Not sure if this is even the best method. Thanks for any help.
