Testing things out for game

Here is something I made just testing some stuff out for a game I am making.

Use left and right arrows to move.

Nothing Fancy here.

The Ship will sink and rise with the waves and follow the curves of the waves.

A test on duplicating Moveclips and collision detections.

[Cerebrus]

It does an awful lot of bouncing when the waves are falling.

[Farvan]

Yeah, I've tried several different methods, but sadly they all have the same results.

If I set it down any lower the waves over take the ship alot.

[Cerebrus]

Alternatively, you could just lower the rate that the waves rise and fall. Unless you're in a really intense storm, I don't think wave crests and troughs move that fast, anyway.

[Farvan]

The waves aren't exactly made from pure code.

I used a ball to the right that moves up and down at random speeds and the dups follow it as fast as they can.
I can lower that but makes for less interesting thing.

Fake physics are fun, one of these days I will actually learn trig.

[Cerebrus]

Yeah, I see how you manage that waves. You could use somewhat more discrete, smaller circles, which would prevent the ship from "catching" on the last circle and dropping off so dramatically, but I'm not sure what else you could do.

Then again, I don't have much experience with this sort of thing. And by "not much", I mean "none at all." <_<

[Farvan]

Yeah,It is all still in test phase.
I have another version which is weirder.

This one you control the two points in which the water is generated and goes too.

The ship will move towards which ever angel the nose is pointed at.
If then nose is down it will move forward if it is up it will move back.
The Steeper the faster.


This one is still in very much experimental stage.

I made the boat fall off the square!

[Farvan]

You killed the crew....

[Taioko]

You killed the crew....

I'm afraid I accidentally did it too.

I hope their ship can be found... Maybe...Maybe they're still alive?

[Anarki]

If you look at the back of the boat, you see a V shaped hull.

The bottom of the V is definetly not always on the surface. Usually, the hull is submerged a bit.

Maybe make the boat be submerged a bit?

You cannot find them....They fell off the world an endless fall....A faith worst then death.

Let us raise a quote zigarat to honor their memory.

Whoops, I killed them too......

Good, now I know I'm not alone. My heart goes out to them.
