QML Game Implementation

[timoph]

AFAIK there's no straightforward way to do it. You can expose the underlaying QGraphicsItem stuff and use collidesWith() etc from there or you can implement your own collision detection based on item coordinates (could be a bit expensive operation). Dunno if there are examples floating on this floating around somewhere.

If someone has a nice and clean example for this, please share.

Please don't start new topics on the same subject over and over again. Please give us some time to respond. Not everybody is always active. It's weekend you know;-)

I Merged the 3 threads.

I am making a game FastBall actually trying to implement the ipad game fastball2....
in the game we have a horizontal path on which there are stars and obstacles...
the user gains points by collecting stars and game gets over if hits obstacles...

Well, i have implemented the Ball Module, the *stars8 and the individual obstacles modules by QML...
i have also implemented the ball to jump when clicked...

I have given an animation to the star and set the running property false and i have the animations to take place when the Ball moves over the star and the Ball to disappear when hits the obstacles...

just stuck over here...how can i do that :(

@eddy
m really sorry but i guess u may have to merge one more thread to this..
m really sorry but just got stuck here and jus wanna to move way ahead

[Eddy]

I just merged number 4.

Thanks for the hint ;-)

If you have new info to add or more specific questions it is recommended to continue in the same topic. People will eventually read them. Some patience helps.

u r too fast !

hey....can u tell me how to use the box2d plugin to detect collisions for my @Ball@ and @Star@ objects ?

[task_struct]

Hello,

It's pretty easy. You create a World and Bodies for star and ball( may be the best fixture will be Circle ). To detect collisions you can use fixture's signal beginContact

For examples, see http://gitorious.org/qml-box2d/qml-box2d/trees/master/examples

I can't find detailed documentation so I use source code. You can look at headers to see what different types can do. In QML all Q_PROPERTYs are visible, also you can connect to every signal, and you can call every function that starts with macro Q_INVOKABLE

hey tas but how to use the beginContact signal...i tried using it bt guess m messing lil with its syntax...unable to get output

[task_struct]

Hello,

You shoud have something like this:

@
Body {
id: someBody

    fixtures: Circle {
            id: circle

            radius: 10
            density: 6
            friction: 0.7
            restitution: 0.4

            onBeginContact: {
                    // put here your code
            }
    }

}
