Well. i've been having fun lately, constantly working with GML. But now, i'm starting to get annoyed. At my second to last assignment, as of yet, i was to make a clock, a FACE clock, that updates in real time. Sure. That's nice. But, i'm trying to figure out how to get the hands to update properly. I tried adding 300 to current_minute, etc. But nothing works.

Anyways. I just went to see Shaggy Dog. Interesting movie.

Well, that cut's it for now. Back to GM.

for the direction of the hands:

seconds - multiply the current second by 6 to get the degree

minutes - same

hours - multiply by 30

how is that difficult?

if you want to go with trigonometric functions, you can use the length functions to figure out the X and Y of the end of a line that is made using the length of hte line and the direction.

Here: I made an example <a href="http://64digits.com/users/korberos/clock.gm6">Trig Line Functions</a>

and no, this does not mean I like you.

I understand perfectly Korbweros.

I just wasn't thinking when i made it.

I don't care if you like me or not, at least you took the time to make the example for me.

Um, you didn't get me into it, carson. I got annoyed that i wasn't that good at it. You may have got me back into GM, but my wants, and Melee-Master are what ended up getting me into GML.
