Indeed, but Lula is trully near illiterate. He didn't finish elementary school...
I still wonder how he got elected in the first place.  :-\

Edit:

And I bet that you have not heard about a politician relative being arrested with U$ 100.000,00 in his underware during a major corruption scandal. :P

Are you sure you want to know?

Our president is a corrupt, nearly illiteareted man who knows nothing about politics.
Corruptions runs wild around here and most of the politics only care about they party agenda.
Not to mention recent scandals such as:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mensalao

And the fact that a major telecom injected nearly one millon dollars at a small gaming company owned by the president son.

And I find capoeira mostly disgusting... :(

That's all I have to say about Brazil political environment for now. :P

Bézier curves in mugen

 Posted by Bea  in Bézier curves in mugen (Started by Bea October 02, 2005, 08:15:52 pm

The idea:
 - To implement a basic bézigon (path made of two or more bezier curves) using mugen script language.

Edit due to Val suggestion:

a bezier code is a smooth curve calculated from at least three points, using this code you can make your projectile fly smooth curves from position a to position b (good for homing projectiles etc).

The code below will generate two quadratics bézier curves with random control points starting at player position and ending out of screen. The child helper will smoothly follow the bézier curves creating a quite nice move. :P

The sources:

 - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernstein_polynomial
 - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bezier_curve

The result:

How it works:
- The mother helper creates several control points, saving them in fvar(4) and onward
- Each node iteration requires 4 points (we're using quadratic bézier curves here). For each node bigger than 1, the start point is last node end point
- For a path with N nodes, the mother helper needs to generate 4 * N points. In our example the starting point fvar(2), fvar(3) is 0,0.
- In the child helper, var(4) represents the number of nodes our path will have
- Each control point is made of a set of fvars. Fvars with even numbered indexes represents the X component of the point. Fvars with odd numbered indexes represents the Y component of the point.
- The X component of the control point must be adjusted by facing to guarantee that the curve will follow the right direction.
- In the child helper, fvar(10) and fvar(11) means the amount of the curve already done in parts of 1.0. They're increased and decrease by a fixed amount which must be a fraction of 1.0. The size of this increment determines how many points it will take to fully iterate a node. To find out the increment, divide 1.0 per the number of points you want to draw in each curve. In our example here we have 50 points (1.0/50 = 0.02)
- In the child helper, fvar(10) is always incremented and fvar(11) is always decremented
- The child helper destroys itself when he finishs the whole path, saving in var(4) the number of nodes already completed.
- The given code computes the angle between the current point and the next one and apply it to the child helper.

That's it. If you got any other doubt, ask.

Kisses.

You know, checking projectile hit within the same state that the projectile is spawned isn't good code practice... Character tend to leave that state before the projectile hits its target and then, bang!, no life added.
Such code should be put at a special state such [State -2]

Hello, hello, hello.
After having messed with angles in mugen, I couldn't help but waste my whole night thinking in normals, vectors and so on... I almost lost my sleep due to that... :P
So, the first thing I did today as I got myself to my computer was to program a code for aimed projectiles based on the calculus of normalized vectors.

So, here is the code :P:

;Finds the X component of the vector Player, EnemyNear

;V(x) = B(x) - A(x)
;V(y) = B(y) - A(y)

;Finds the Y component of the vector Player, EnemyNear

Type = VarSet
trigger1 = 1
fvar(14) = (EnemyNear(0), pos Y - Pos Y)

;Finds the vector length
;Formula of the length of a given vector AB
;|AB| = (AB(x)^2  + AB(y)^2)^1/2
[State 1640, Vector Length]
Type = VarSet
trigger1 = 1
fvar(15) = Exp(0.5*ln((fvar(13) * fvar(13))+(fvar(14) * fvar(14))))

;To find the normalized vector one has to use
;the following formula:
;Normal(AB) = V(AB)/|AB|
;So, you divide the X and Y components of one vector by it's length
;Obs:
;Normalized vector = The normalized vector of X is a vector in the same direction
;but with norm (length) 1.
;Now that we have the normalized vector, we multiply it by the desired absolute velocity,
;such as 5 pixels per frame.

;and multiply by the desired absolute velocity.
attr = S, NP

Okay, okay, okay. After a few minutes smacking my head against the wall, I gotta this code to calculate the angle between player and EnemyNear(0):
(Btw, I'm giving away a code to calculate absolute distance between player and EnemyNear(0) with it :P)

[State -3, Distance Between Player and the Nearest enemy]
Type = VarSet
trigger1 = 1
fvar(10) = Exp(0.5*ln((((EnemyNear(0), Pos X) - (Pos X)) * (( EnemyNear(0), Pos X) - (Pos X)) + ((EnemyNear(0), Pos Y - Pos Y) * (EnemyNear(0), Pos Y - Pos Y)))))

[State -3, M]
Type = VarSet
trigger1 = EnemyNear(0), Pos X != Pos X
fvar(11) = -((EnemyNear(0), Pos Y - Pos Y)/(EnemyNear(0), Pos X - Pos X))

[State -3, M] ;There can be no triangle if both points share the same X cord
Type = VarSet
trigger1 = EnemyNear(0), Pos X = Pos X
fvar(11) = 0

[State -3, Angle]
Type = VarSet
trigger1 = 1
fvar(12) = Atan(fvar(11)) * (180.0/Pi) ;Angle given in degrees.

And that was "Yet another code no one will use, nor will give a damn" brought to you by SMEE.
Now, there is no need to point out that no one other than would use this code. :P

Edit: Removed the ABS in the M formula and fixed the inverted cartesian plan that mugen uses by multipling M by -1.

Have fun.

Winane: The most significant one is the ** operator, which has a bad precision, doesn't like to be in expressions and doesn't accept float numbers as its base. The other thing is expression processing. Mugen hates complex expression with passion and will give you broken results whereas it can...
Also, it's float number precision is really bad...

Well, well, well. I know that many here might not be too found on math, but there is a thing some might find interesting. It was originally posted at MugenDev an year ago.
There are two ways to get a square root of a number in mugen.
The first one is by using the exp and ln functions in this way:
;Square Root
[State WhatEver, I don't Care]
Type = VarSet
trigger1 = Something
fvar(39) = exp(0.5*ln(fvar(38)))

This soluction is nice, cleaner and will give more accurate results than the second method below. Thanks to ANMC for pointing me out that the exp function in mugen ain't broken as some other math functions are and could be used this way.
You can always try to generalize the function so you won't be limited to square roots:
;Root Function
[State WhatEver, Root]
Type = VarSet
trigger1 = Something
fvar(39) = exp((1.0/fvar(37)) * ln(fvar(38)))

Here fvar(37) represents the root base (2, 3, 4 and so on). Keep in mind that square roots and roots functions are very slow.

Also, you can use exp to calculate power in this way: exp(fvar(37)*ln(fvar(38))). This gives a better result than the ** operator in mugen.

Now, on the second method, that I'll be posting just for my own sake, as I spent some good nights awake and lost many precious dating hours trying to figure out the code. It has rounding error problems, is slower than the code above and so on, but it works quite nicelly.
This code is based in taylor series:

;Square Root of a number using Taylor series.
[State 666, SquareRoot1]
Type = VarSet
trigger1 = 1
fv = 0
value = Value ;We'll be storing the value we want to get the sqrt in the parent's fvar(0)
