Hey guys,
I’m hoping that one of you could help me… this is somewhat complicated, so whoever’s up to the challenge (source code is in Flash 8):
I’m currently making a simulation in which a bug maneuvers around obstacles to an endpoint. Some obstables (water, etc) reduce the bug’s speed, while others (roads) increase it. The endpoint is chosen by a mouse click on the map. To find the best point to move next, a dummy object called “seeker” hovers in a circle around the bug and gathers info about the surroundings (terrain type, direction, etc). Each point around the bug is given a rating, or “pheromone”, and the coordinate around the bug that has the best rating will become the bug’s new location. A lot of arrays are used to store X values, Y values, and some other stuff. However, for some reason, the code doesn’t seem to work. It pops up the “would you like to terminate the program?” debugger message after taking a while to run.
Take a look at the code; I tried to comment it a lot. If you have any questions, let me know and I’ll try to check back frequently…
This is a school project due next week, and I’m already sweating about it. PLEASE somebody help, thanks! :te:
