That's why I created StandardGame to support not just "sample" or "simple" applications, but all applications. My goal is similar in Sgine. If you need more advanced functionality you should still be able to use the UI class to achieve it, you just may need to mix-in additional functionality or write additional configuration. Just because something is powerful does not mean it has to be overly complicated. Nor does it mean that you have to write a bunch of boiler-plate in order to do something simple.<br /><br />If you are familiar with the jME project, the ideas I created for StandardGame are still extremely popular today with it.Matt Hickshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16505852962558029815noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1320962532166013289.post-46878896547236507282011-07-17T01:48:32.212-05:002011-07-17T01:48:32.212-05:00Hi Matt,
Thanks for considering those of you that...Hi Matt,<br /><br />Thanks for considering those of you that love pictures :)<br /><br />One of the things I like about Scala is the ability to gradually scale from a small script/prototype to a full sized application.<br /><br />With my very limited game engine experience, I found that often you would start extending "SampleApplication" or something. Later on in the project it would still functionally fit your application 90%, but you have to rewrite your base class for that 10% that doesn't fit (function/performance).<br /><br />Have you got a rough idea at this point how your concepts might be better/worse in this area?Eelconoreply@blogger.com
