Oh, that's pretty simple. coo

>for a in range (len(mylist))  - NO. NO. for i in mylist

...oh. Ok.

range(len()) works too though.

[notajf]

Yes but that's un-pythonic. You should do "for i in list: print i" not "for i in range(len(list)): print list".

Alright, I've never posted on these forums before, so let me introduce myself.

My name is Orson Peters and I'm 16 years old and I just LOVE GG2 (I found it after trying to play TF2 on a shitty computer).

On the other hand, I'm a (IMHO) very good programmer too, knowing Python, Lua, C/C++ and the PHP/SQL/HTML/CSS/JS package.

I have experience with Lua (http://tukui.org/), Python, C & C++ (just my own little stuff). Windows and Linux platforms, WoW API Framework (if you can call it that). I have no real portfolio yet, finished projects include TukUI (coauthor/founder, inactive now): https://github.com/tukz/Tukui, and a shameless Tetris clone (SDL messing around with C++): exe/src.

Other than that, check out my site: http://nclabs.org/.

 I was amazed to see that GG2 was a game maker game, and when looking on the forums I found this thread. I'm willing to contribute on this project.

Perhaps someone can add me on MSN/Xfire/AIM to "talk me in" and explain the architecture a little bit? Thanks.

We don't use MSN, XFire or AIM. However, we do use the GG2 IRC (#gg2 on irc.esper.net) and Steam sometimes.

Welcome! I hope you have a good time here.

Yeah. I can be found pretty much at any time I'm on the computer on the IRC channel.

Hey man, glad to see you want to help out, but I think the main method for communicating to other people who have experience with this project is the GG2 irc channel. Link should be at the top of the page. (:

Anyway, welcome!

[nightcracker]

Already found the irc channel, thanks

Tukui, reminds me of tsuki's name. but that's just paranoid ol' me.

I'll be away for 10 days, so I'm making ajf and nightcracker both collaborators, so you'll be able to push stuff to the main repos.

Also, Kizzi is also interested in this project and is apparently working on a console of some sort.

At the moment it's just a text input field but I think that's all we'll really need for a while, just for testing.

I had a different idea for how to make a better GG2, and that is to produce an open-source alternative to the Game Maker runtime.
Well, a "pure" form of GML, not locked to the Game Maker interface, with functions not scripts.

GG2 might not run any faster, but I'd be able to disable graphical output entirely when desired (i.e. run on a server).

I don't see what's wrong with using tabs.

[notajf]

I don't see what's wrong with using tabs.

They're a mess, and inconsistent. The Python style guide recommends using spaces not tabs.

Alright, I did some major updates, got collision detection and reponse working beautifully now (you can walk up stairs and even jump on stairs), and changed the way PyGG2 was rendered. Orpheon now gets 450 FPS when we unlock the FPS limiter (standard it's on 80, anything more is overkill).
