  • 0

I have developed a game using HTML5 and Javascript/JQuery. This game is a Tile based game and uses a Multi-dimensional array to save the map of the current level. The current array looks something like the code below for the first level:

var map = [[1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1],
           [1, 3, 0, 0, 0, 0, 2, 4, 0, 1],
           [1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1]];

Just so you know:

0 = Floor
1 = Wall
2 = Block
3 = Player
4 = Goal

The map when rendered looks like the following:

enter image description here

So basically what i would like to do is create a Map Creator for the user.

I would like every block in the image above to be click-able and when the user clicks on the square it cycles through the possible blocks in the game (e.g 0,1,2,3 or 4).

I have been trying to get this to work using the KineticJS library but with no luck.

Could anyone give me any advice on what to use or any information on how i could do this using KineticJS.

Thanks

    I can’t comment on the KineticJS aspect of it, but couldn’t you do something like: determine the click coordinates relative to the canvas, divide that by the size of your blocks (and round down) for each axis, and then you’d know which block was clicked. Edit that value in your map and redraw that block on the canvas?

    This is what I mean:

var map=[[1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1],[1,3,0,0,0,0,2,4,0,1],[1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1]];
var can=document.getElementById('can')
if(can){ctx=can.getContext('2d');}
function init(){
    can.width=map[0].length*blocksize; //adjusts canvas size to fit map
    can.height=map.length*blocksize;
    for(y=0;y<map.length;y++){
        for(x=0;x<map[y].length;x++){
            draw(y,x);
        }
    }
    can.addEventListener('click',builder);
}

function builder(e){
    if (e == null) {e = window.event;}
    x = e.clientX; //where the click was
    y = e.clientY;
    offsetX = ExtractNumber(can.offsetLeft)-window.scrollX;//where the canvas is
    offsetY = ExtractNumber(can.offsetTop)-window.scrollY;
    x_grid=Math.floor((x-offsetX)/blocksize); //which block in the canvas was clicked
    y_grid=Math.floor((y-offsetY)/blocksize);
    map[y_grid][x_grid]++;
    if(map[y_grid][x_grid]>4){map[y_grid][x_grid]=0;}
    draw(y_grid,x_grid);
}

function draw(y,x){
    kind=map[y][x];
    switch(kind){
        case 0:
            ctx.drawImage(floorimg,x*blocksize,y*blocksize);
        break;
        case 1:

            ctx.drawImage(goalimg,x*blocksize,y*blocksize);
        break;
    }
