Lua RTS Prototype

June 10th, 2006, 21:03 Posted By: yaustar

Preface: This is just a side project whilst I am working on my main one (which isn't PSP related). This is being done for several reasons:

1. Learn Lua
2. See if LuaPlayer or Lua can handle a RTS system on its own (which it honestly looks like it can't).
3. As a welcome distraction to the main project.

I haven't tested it on a PSP but it works fine in LuaPlayer for Windows. I appreicate if someone can tell me the FPS when 'played' in the PSP's Luaplayer.

At the moment only basic scrolling and radar really work but a lot of the framework is there so the new features won't take much doing.

The graphics were taken from the author of CS Stratergised (sp?) which are from C&C. However the code is my own taken from various sources.

Edit: I have just found that there was a Starcraft Lua RTS where the menu graphic seems to be from. Apologies.

Edit2: The menu graphic seems to be from Fallout.

[Minor Update 2006-06-12]: Fixed a major coding error where I my member variables weren't acting as member variables but as globals. Added interactivity with the radar. Try pressing circle on it . Also switched the debug button from L to Select.
