H3x IOTA announced!

Edit}} Jared... I am concerned that I don't see the ARIAL font letters on your screen... do you not have the arial font?

I do have Arial font (und viele andere) installed.

@Derek: You may have been having an issue with Sprite3D... and if the problem persists... the only things on the screen now that are transparent sprites are the tiles themselves...

Do you actually use any of the Sprite3D functions, or sprites (they each have "3D" in their names)? The other non-3D sprite functions don't require a Start/Stop block for their usage. The PureBasic manual cautions that "Inside a Start3D() : Stop3D() block there should be no functions of the standard Sprite library (e.g. like DisplaySprite()), only functions of the Sprite3D library." This may be the cause of some problems.

I removed all Sprite3D functions in this NEW IOTA version...
I use DisplayTransparentSprite() for the tiles themselves you know, because they are HEX... But eveything else is just a sprite

Except for the text which is handled by StartDrawing() and StopDrawing(). I request a Load of font Arial size 30 and #PB_Font_Bold for the numbers and on screen messages!

Hmmm I will throw you the code Jared...

In the new IOTA version I fixed some issues with the PASS button and it not recognizing the change of turn correctly.

I still need some better AI for the AI... can't see how to do it!

somehow you are puzzled about the alphabet?

its alpha, beta, gamma, delta, epsilon, zeta, eta, theta and only then iota....

[Rook Zimbabwe]

I dumped the ETAs... bad experience at my old college with those frats!

Lambda is next (just because I want to! )

[Rook Zimbabwe]

I have figured out what to do and it is EVIL!!!

What the hell are rules of this game ??

[Rook Zimbabwe]

Rules (restated)

#1. Get the most tiles on the board in your color to win.
#2. move fast (this has been added because of the new AI!)

LAMBDA version...

Game will randomly NOW drop BLOCKs that will cover spaces on the board... if they cover a space with one of your color... you loose points... if they cover a space with the CPU spot... it looses points...

BLOCKs are dropped randomly, they do not attack PLAYER intentionally!

BLOCKs can also cover empty spaces on the board, but should NEVER cover themselves!

OK so most of you geniuses are winning ALL the time... The new feature will cut that a bit, but it is still too easy I think!

But not bad for about 829 lines...

DemiVec worked out the SpriteBloom and it is GREAT!!!

I think i have understand how help the computer on my last try !!

#1. Get the most tiles on the board in your color to win.

click next to the largest number of Orange Hex!

Of course with the new BLOCK feature the computer can gobble up your score as fast as it can eat its own score!

The lambda version apparently thought the game was over, but if you notice green could have still place a tile and changed the score to 40/43.



The blooms look great too.

[Rook Zimbabwe]

Well I have you to thank for the BLOOM effect!

I know what caused that... the shortening... I think. Let me juggle that line for a moment!
