RE: [Rails-devel] Tiles are working... sorta.

Before you get started, do one more checkout from CVS. I've just committed some extra code that does *very* rudimentary rotations based on values I observed. I'm working out the math to improve the calculations, but this works for now. I've moved around which class is implementing MouseListener a bit. This has cleared up a lot of confusion (for me). And now, clicking a hex will rotate it. There's a ton of bugs with the rotation still, but the basic mechanism works. I've been squashing repaint bugs as I find them. Some of them won't go away until we have tile rotation locked down a bit better. You're correct that af.rotate does the rotation, but you'll want to investigate the AffineTransform class documentation to see exactly how it's being rotated. The reason being, we're actually rotating a square image of a hexagon, which causes a little weirdness and is mathematically different than just rotating a hexagon. You'll see the reason af.rotate starts at 0.5 if you open any of the tile image files in any graphics program. ---Brett. -----Original Message----- From: Erik Vos <eri...@hc...> Sent: Sep 22, 2005 2:23 PM To: rai...@li... Subject: RE: [Rails-devel] Tiles are working... sorta. One little problem: My version of java (1.4.2) does not have AffineTransformOp.TYPE_BICUBIC, I have replaced it for now by AffineTransformOp.TYPE_BILINEAR. Another problem is that the map does not repaint correctly when the window regains focus. How are we going to specify rotation? I suggest to add an extra int argument to the GUIEWHex constructor, which can range from 0-5 which indicates the number of 60 degrees clockwise turns to get at the actual orientation. I suppose af.rotate() does the turning? Why is it 0.5 now? Not clear to me how to tweak it to get our 60/120/180 deg rotations. I'm now going add the rotations to the 1830 hex map based on the current output.
