Impementing: Alien missions
« on: November 17, 2012, 11:29:00 am »
I have now all the relevant data for the missions (thanks Volutar), and started moving them to ruleset format.
Another commit and I'll even start producing actual missions!

feature/alien-missions
.
Please provide feedback and comments / suggestions.

edit: Updated link.

Ok, we now have ALL the mission data in ruleset format. Next few commits will implement alien missions.

It seems I am doing something wrong with the data, the UFOs keep landing in the sea. I'll have to visualize to check my errors / code, so this may take a while. The code on GitHub is mostly the same, but there are changes in my working version.

PS: Where do UFOs enter the game? Where do they leave?

make a call to ufo->insideLand() before switching to "landed" else move on to next waypoint?

idk, i'll clone what you got and take a look.

edit: should i be looking at the feature or wip alienmissions branch?

edit: edit: can you quickly explain how the waypoint information is stored?
what do these numbers mean?
      - [5, 4, 100]

First number is region zone (each zone has 1 - 10 areas), each region has 6 zones.
Second is altitude 0 = ground, 4 = very high
Final is speed%.

Use feature, wip is very old.

ufos are entering at 1st trajectory site (random sub-area and random location in it, like any other trajectory waypoint). and leaving after last one (tracking lost). landing in sea mean you're getting wrong location. there are only some of 6 area sets, which totally situated over lands. and only they are used as landing sites.

Volutar, is the indexing of zones and subareas:
for each Region (0 .. 11, eg EUROPE, AMERICA):
  for each Zone (0 .. 5, 3 ==cities)
    for each subarea(0..9)

So first city in Europe should be: Region(EUROPE) * 60 + zone(3) * 10 + first city (0)
Or am I missing something?

And, are all subareas over respective regions? Because I get subareas over other regions (eg over Sahara for Europe).
PS: It seems that UFOs may land in any zone except 0 (1 in my data convertion).

karvanit, maybe IRC would be better for chat?

And not, you're not missing anything, but yaml structure with blocks of mins/maxs is not very intuitive and natural. Every area is globe square, having xmin/xmax/ymin/ymax coordinates. And it would be much better if each square will be [xmin, xmax, ymin, ymax] (like waypoints) in yaml and some tag of which zone it is. In your form I can't even say is it right. But obviously there is a lack of cities (which have zero width and height).

You can visualize almost correct areas with my globe editor ("almost" because box coordinate wrapping for polar zones is a mess).

sadface, it compiles but it crashes out as soon as it tries to invoke AlienMission.h

something wrong in the declarations?
stacktrace seems to indicate a problem here:

   void setRegion(const std::string &region) { _region = region; }
