The New World Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 You should add a clipping mask, make a fog of far / flashlight effect possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The New World Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 Not really, but then again a basic understand of programming theory is helpful.After you learn the basics for programming, it turns out to be about preferences, how you'll utilize the language, and what libraries are available.

The New World Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 Well Java is a semi-interpreted language, so it's speed isn't all the way up to par, but it has an extensive library, or .. I guess you could say a lot of goodies available to you out of the box. Java is also OOP, which some people don't like.Compared to C and C++ on a primitive level, they both have a standard library of functions such as input and output streams. These are both compiled languages though, which run faster on the machine.This is a small summary just to help you understand a bit. I myself took the past weekend to create a nifty GDK in Java for some of my projects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Java is easy. Programming in any language is easy. Theory, and designing larger projects in general is difficult. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sealbreaker Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 Are you using the java.net library that comes with java for networking? How does it perform?-seal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unknown Posted May 23, 2012 Author Share Posted May 23, 2012 Good enough. I'm creating a new thread for every user which is fast but memory consuming. I tried to make it modular enough to switch in your own NIO networking system (or even use [Netty](http://www.jboss.org/netty)) which will reduce total memory usage. I also turn off [Nagel's algorithm](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nagle's_algorithm) which is a good idea when creating realtime TCP Multiplayer games.I need to update the server networking so that it queues messages instead of having a bunch of synchronized blocks.

I hope whatever that meant means progress. Can't wait for the real game to open. But I guess that will be a while Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
