OLPCities/Using the Time-Space Portal: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 12:01, 24 September 2006

Many of the residents of the OLPCity (it's the case of our heroe, the avatar, you...) works for the "Time-Space Inc." This company developed the "Time-Space Portal" for travels in the time and space.

The Portal is used to go to some place/time of the past and is the "support" for many activities of History. Going to some place in time, the kid needs to enterview all the characters at the Lot to know how they live etc. etc. The company only send a new Portal for the return when the kid ends his mission.

The "Time-Space Portal" is used also for space travels, to go to used to go to (and return from) another planet . Usually he will go to the planet "Pink" where there are the "gold beans" he needs to collect - they are very valuable. But he will have some chalenges to do it. The PINK planet's residents are the "echoos", monsters that like to send people to the near past. This space travels are the non-educational part of the OLPCity project. Only funny games.

A "Time-Sapace Portal" is an animation and a link. It has two "shadows" One for collison and the other to do the link.

To do the animation we have the lines:

  ts.setAnimationLoop(0,3);	 
  ts.setAnimationSpeed(4); 					 
  ts.setAnimation(0);	 
  ts.setAnimationRepeat(-1);

At this lesson we will present the code of a Lot having a "Time-Space Portal". Usint the Portal, you will go to the Pink planet. At the next lesson we will explain how to shoot against the "echoo" and some other tricks.

The code:
