Wormy!
« on: October 24, 2011, 08:19:09 am »
So I was fooling around with Grammer when I made this little proggy ^-^

It is pretty much a little wormy that follows a set of rules. The head moves down if there is a way to move down. If there isn't, it then tries left and right (it selects the first direction to try, randomly). if that still doesn't work, it moves up.

And with that, you get a wormy!

I wonder if I can add this as a type of particle in Grammer...

Someone should do that! :D

And is that a lowercase program I see?

Exactly what I was thinking :D

'Tis indeed! I realised yesterday that Grammer doesn't error out when a program has a weird name, so Grammer programs can use weird symbols! Also, for the interested, thepenguin77 tested zStart and zStart does the same thing!

If you added this as a particle it would be really cool if you could specify which way if "down."  This way, the default direction could allow gravity to change or other cool actions to occur.

Hmm, maybe I should add the ability to just in general define the directions for all particles. Right now, particles move in an order of precedence. I could probably easily add a way to call up down and all that jazz... I will probably also rewrite the particle engine to allow for some other options.

I just remember the difference in speed the particle effects get when translated to assembly, so it would be cool to fill up the screen with worms :D

I saw the title wormy and I got scared. (BraondonW also released a program called wormy and it changes your TI-84+SE into a TI-84+BE)

Ooh, a suggestion: multiple worms! :D Having them hit each other would get interesting.

I hope Grammer can't do that O.O

50+ wormies, please?  All of them, tumbling over and swirling around each other in a giant vat?

I plan to add them as particle forms, so once I add that to Grammer... Yes, a bucket o' worms :)
