Using recursion? Ooooh boy, that's a pain in Java. It's easy enough to do that for 1 moving point, and even for 2, but when doing that same algorithm with more than 2, it'll show up how wrong it is, as it'll show straight lines in 8 directions, not make a filled diamond. Also, when cutting off at the border, it tends to ignore having to jump up or down a spot, so that kinda messes it up too. Will try to solve it with recursion now.

any solution on how to solve this recursion problem or perhaps something else that could be added to involed the boarder element

Can't seem to get it right with recursion. Doesn't feel right either, trying to get it done with that. Feels more like there's a better way.

Hey guys, i know this is going from one end of the spectrum to another, but what about making the game in Flash?

[Kon-Tiki]

Go ahead, but don't count me in for it :whistle:

Ugh, flash hit detection is SO frustrating. Plus, flash is more suited to a quick-loading, arcade-style game than an in-depth game like a strategy game, RPG, etc, though I suppose it could work for an adventure game. But SDL is much better for what we're talking about here, and C++ is more versatile than ActionScript anyway.

well you could try flash - heck at worst its programming practice for you guys that might come in handy later on = things slowing down a bit now but some games esp the treasure theives is coming along nicley
