Timer management

Former Member · ‎2014 Jul 04

Hi all,

I am currently working on a program which is really important. Well... it's a Pacman... (Well, time is quite long sometimes)

In fact, I created it using ALV Grid OO and it works quite well.

My characters are moving thanks to a timer (class CL_GUI_TIMER) but the problem is this timer is unable to make my charcaters move more than once per second.

Does anyone know about a preciser timer (which can be called every 0.25s I'd say)?

I have another problem, this is not the subject but if by fortune someone knows...

I would like to make my characters move with keyboards arrows, has anyone an idea about how to deal with it?

Thanks all for your help.

Hi,

You have a good job

I think you can't :

If you have too much time you could recreate the class and use milliseconds

You are working in France ? could you send me your company name ?

Well, this is on my own time I'm a professionnal.

But still, even if it could seem like a joke, this program is not simple at all and it could be a good training for new comers ^^

I'm sure it's a big job with a lot of problems

There is a place in SCN about project where you could share your code. That could be interesting

I don't really know SDN in detail, where can I do that?

I forgot a detail, i tried to find some way to cheat with my timer.

I created timestamps then 4 instances of the timer. Then I started them with 0.25 second interval, but it do not work. Has anyone a suggestion to find an other workaround to it?
