LynxJam2023 - day 3

and......yes !!!!!!

I could now walk on the dungeon !

When you turn, it's not perfect because not animated but Dungeon Master did the same so I probably won't change it (limited time doesn't help!!)

The main difficulty was to handle the field of view, which request to controls almost 20 positions of the maze!

 X-2 X-1 X X+1 X+2
       L C R
    D | | | | Y=3
    C  _ _ _  Y=3
    C | | | | Y=2
    B  _ _ _  Y=2
    B . | | . Y=1
    A  _ _ _  Y=1
    A . |P| . Y=0
       Player

Unlike a "classic" maze where you only need to check if there is a wall in front of you.

Why is it difficult ? If you walk front in the middle of the dungeon, no problem : just use curent X and Y

But what if you're against a wall (at X=0 for ex) or if you walk to the left of the dungeon ?

Yes, the 20 positions you need to test are defined by where you are and which direction you are 

According direction, I so defined how much X and Y is needed to move front and how much X and Y is need to move right.
This way, I could get any maze information based on player direction

switch (mazeAim)
 {
 case AIM_UP:
 stepFrontX = 0;
 stepFrontY = -1;
 stepRightX = 1;
 stepRightY = 0;
 break;
 case AIM_RIGHT:
 stepFrontX = 1;
 stepFrontY = 0;
 stepRightX = 0;
 stepRightY = 1;
 break;
 case AIM_BOTTOM:
 stepFrontX = 0;
 stepFrontY = 1;
 stepRightX = -1;
 stepRightY = 0;
 break;
 case AIM_LEFT:
 stepFrontX = -1;
 stepFrontY = 0;
 stepRightX = 0;
 stepRightY = -1;
 break;
 }

I'll probably add encounter engine tomorrow
