Multi-Spacewar! WIP but playable!!!!!!
#1
I have been wanting to see this game since oh, 1985 or so, give it a try and tell me how you like it!

This is still very much a WIP - the control mapping is hardcoded for now, but can be changed beginning at line 2043. Player 1 is controlled by the cursor keys and right CTRL. 

I plan on making the controls user-configurable, including support for game controllers. I also will add sounds, display player scores/life/etc. along the edges of the screen, add a sun/gravity, and a whole bunch of other menu-driven user configurable options (eventually to be a kind of Spacewar! / Asteroids / Gravitar / Lunar Lander construction set). 

But this is the first playable version, so here you go. 

PS I forgot to include a screenshot and am not at my PC anymore, so maybe next version. 

Here is the current keyboard mapping:

Code: (Select All)
_Title "Fast Zap 'Em : Multispacewar! by Softintheheadware v0.44"

' Borrowed code:
' * Original VB6 code for "Collisions" by Tassadar, found on PlanetSourceCode.com in 2001.
' * Graphics objects and format from Widescreen Asteroids by Terry Ritchie.

' DATE         WHO-DONE-IT   DID-WHAT
' 2001-06-10   Tassadar      created "Collisions" program
' 2022-11-01   madscijr      Converted "Collisions" to QB64, added some tweaks
' 2022-11-04   madscijr      Version 0.44 is now playable with up to 16 players

' DONE:
' * get it working in QB64 + tweak various calculations
' * random enemy radius (wider range with each level)
' * added variables for bullet lifespan, bullet radius
' * bullets can wrap around screen
' * bullet-bullet collisions
' * bonus shields at end of round
' * are you lookin' at me??
' * track x/y velocity differently (movement is jerky)
' * vector engine: define vector objects line by line and draw to screen
' * vector engine: translate rotation angle into dx,dy to move in direction of angle
' * local multiplayer Spacewar! (upto 16 players)
' * finish collisions
'   - player hit player
'   - player shoot player
'   - enemy shoot enemy

' TODO:
' * fix player placement
' * sun and gravity
' * explosions and stuff
' * sound effects
' * cleanup/fix menu (breaks if we remove test items)
' * show player # or name on or near ship
' * fix jerky ship movement (ships should move & respond like Asteroids)
' * improve collision detection accuracy
' * limited fuel/ammo
' * option: fire button auto-repeat
' (lots more plans for phase 2 and beyond)

'   Updated:  5/28/2012

'SUMMARY:
'[Replace$] replaces all instances of the [Find] sub-string with the [Add] sub-string within the [Text] string.
'INPUT:
'Text: The input string; the text that's being manipulated.
'Find: The specified sub-string; the string sought within the [Text] string.
'Add: The sub-string that's being added to the [Text] string.
