Infinite for loop...

Posted by Shork on Jan. 26, 2007, 5:42 p.m.

I was trying to make an isometric grid system. I was using a for loop to set the x and y cooridinates of the lines endpoints. I thought it would be best to use a for loop in a for loop to make the offsets work. However, I didn't check the code very well, becuase when I hit go, the game screen didn't come up at all. I can't get it to come up. I can't get back into the GM screen either. I think I probably wrote a code that does the same thing as this:

for(n=0;n<j;n+=1){
     draw_text("You suck!",x,y)
     j += 10
    }

Of course it wasn't that exact piece of code, I'm not an idiot. I never would have put that "You Suck" line into my program.

in the proccesses tab of task manager, you'll find the game, might look something like a6425 for example

You can use div (I believe) to easily draw infinite grids.

^or you can divide 2 numbers, subtract the floor of the quotient, and multiply it by the dividend

Or just take the quotient of the sum of the mass of earth and multiply it by <i>i</i>, the stick it in the quadratic formula, take the determinant, and solve it for x.

Thats the easiest way to make an isometric grid, my friend.
