programming final project: Line Rider
So yea, taking a fundamentals of programming class at CMU. Language: python. We have a lot of freedom of choosing what our final project will be, and I'm considering making Line Rider FROM SCRATCH.
The fundamental difference between my version and fsk's is that I will be using a different collision algorithm that enables double sided lines. So no more gravity wells (I guess I'll implement literal gravity wells). The other difference is that I'm learning programming at CMU, so hopefully my version will be a lot more optimized.
Give me ideas that we used to shout at fsk/mhenr18 years ago :|
Also, I'll probably remake it again in Java (after I learn Java) so that it would be a lot more accessible.

Sounds good Conun, kevansevans is programming something for Line Rider as well so he may be able to help you think of ideas (or the other way around).

Re: programming final project: Line Rider
I saw a couple of his threads but I didn't really look into it. From what I've seen, it looks like he's just taking over mhenr's role in modding fsk's Line Rider. But, as I've mentioned, I'm gonna make Line Rider from scratch. And this time, it will be done, unlike...other things.
it's my final project, darn it :|

From scratch will be interesting. Good luck getting the normal physics back, haha!

60fps
customizable sleds
no more minimum line size (1 pixel line ftw!)

Re: programming final project: Line Rider
You mean the original suggestion thread for Line Rider 3?
The first pages were like:
"MOAR DURABILITY."
However, it's about time someone made double-sided lines.

Re: programming final project: Line Rider
Triple sided lines.
Also have the ability to make double and single sided lines. And no line size limits big or small. Maybe a zero point tail manual, and the ability to turn the scarf into a contact point.

Re: programming final project: Line Rider
Don't waste your time with stuff like customizable sleds or graphics stuff. That's not really the important part, especially since you're starting from scratch.
Necessary:
60fps
single side lines
double side lines
Be able to make both of those regular or boost lines.
Scenery lines
Play, Pause, Stop
Flag
Any size lines.
Preferable:
-lines to be able to snap like normal if you wish, as well as be able to not have them snap.
-Standard save and load(this means you would have to create some system/file for saving and loading so that's why I'm not putting it in the necessary area as it may be a bit difficult and I don't know how much time you have.
Bonus:
-Multiple flags (not sure how this works in the newer versions anyways so I can't say much about it)
-Rewind
-Frame button, that plays 1 frame forward or backward(obviously not randomly, you choose which way)
-A system for dealing with .sols (or whatever you would call them in your version)
Something interesting to think about would be if you would be able to make one side of the double sided lines red/boost and the other normal. (Could just be something you do extra once you have the main stuff).
That's all I could think of off the top of my head.
Most of the other responses seemed a bit all over the place so I figured I'd try to have something that looked semi-thought-out/organized.
Hope it helped, it's good to see you. I have a friend that is a freshman at CMU, he seems to be enjoying it.

sweet sauce. well, when it's ready *cough*letmehaveabetaofthisamazingidea*cough* excuse me, I have a cold.
I once considered the ride-able scarf. I can probably do that, but that will result in a major physics change.

Do something funny to play around with...like a filler tool. Maybe even with colours =)

Re: programming final project: Line Rider
That sounds really cool, Conun. It actually seems really simple to me (the ideas, not the coding itself) until I think about the contact points and all the forces on them, then it becomes very complicated. But if you use actual, real life physics calculations, I think it'll be easier. I guess every contact point needs its own set of components (velocity vectors, rotational speed, max external force, etc). Optimizing manuals and such might be the hardest part. :X Thinking about it makes me want to start coding again, but dammit I have two exams to study for. I don't have any other ideas (besides terminal velocity) that aren't programming ideas so I'll leave you to it.
GL/welcome back, I hope to talk to you soon, and me you and Bing need to go get lunch or something soon.

Re: programming final project: Line Rider
CN's idea sounds pretty good its self, as well as the other ideas, If I do think of something I'll add it here().

mhenr wsa going to start a C or (C++?) version
sounds awesome though

Re: programming final project: Line Rider
Able to choose were to save the saves? Maybe?
Would be epic?
It happened 3 years ago, suggestion thread for the next line rider game. (Aka Unbound.)

Re: programming final project: Line Rider
Actually I'm rewriting LR from scratch as an exercise in writing cross-platform C code. There's so many inefficiencies in LR revisions originating from fsk's engine, so there's a lot you can do. I don't want to post too much about my work atm because I'm sick of posting promises and previews and not following up on things - I want to be the guy that can come to the forum and say "Hey guys, look what I made!"
Fsk's original source code credits the following site for helping with his physics code, you might want to have a peek at it too if you're wanting to get your build feeling fairly similar. http://www.gpgstudy.com/gpgiki/GDC%202001%3A%20Advanced%20Character%20Physics

You told me this 1 1/2 years ago .
Re: programming final project: Line Rider
Rev, I'm about to graduate now and then go into a software engineering course. I THINK I might have a bit more time for coding now
Re: programming final project: Line Rider
I just went on google and came across this: http://www.t3hprogrammer.com/research/line-circle-collision/tutorial
There's actually quite a bit of missing detail that I'm currently struggling to fill in, though.
It might just be the time of day, but it's gonna take me a while to comprehend the guide that you posted.
Also, I plan to take a course involving C, next semester. Maybe I can take a peek at whatever you have, at that time.

Re: programming final project: Line Rider
lot's o code I have not learned yet
Any who, I am glad to see and be part of the development this is. Something to tell my college room mates/children/grand children when Line rider becomes viral again.
