Chronic Logic

Newbie fits me well.  DB means Draw Bridge.  Duh.  You can set it up with DB up (set to its own phase) and put it down with DB Down (set to a separate phase)  Sorry.

How about that water?

I've been messing around with the editor (mostly because I need a break from trying to get Hard6 to work)

I finally figured out how to set waypoints correctly.  I even got the ground colored the way I want it...

Here's a few questions:
What does DB up and DB down do in the Object mode of the editor?

How can I change the water level?  In the level I've got now, I just moved the land down, but theres still some wierd ease of use issues when I want to put a boat in.

How do I make the hydraulics move during the boat phase of testing?

Thanks in advance for the help,

There's another one called http://robocode.alphaworks.ibm.com" target="_blank">Robocode for all the java nuts out there.  I really like this one.

good luck,

OK so lets say that you design a bridge that does have the above pre-tensioned cables.

At some point the cable strength just wouldn't be enough.  You can only pull it so tight before it still breaks.

I don't think that situation would be an issue if there was a good way to handle cable stregth.  Even with that God mode grab thing you can whip the train around so fast that even 'the hand of God" can't hold it...

I think pre-tensioning would be good.

The problem is the hot key isn't labled on the screen.

And...

R is fo<B>r</B>eward and F is back...  looks OK on the keyboard, but if you're thinking about the letter it's a little confusing.
