Need help with my text based game
I've been creating a game in Java where you have to chase down an enemy character in a certain turn constraint. However, I have been having problems with the AI going out of the array limit for the map. I added a constraint that checks if it goes out of the map, but it hasn't solved it.
here are the variables defined at the top of the class
here is the render codeJava Code:byte[][] map=new byte[10][10]; byte changex=0; byte changey=0; byte AIchangex=0; byte AIchangey=0; byte plrCoordinates[] = new byte[2]; byte AICoordinates[] = new byte[2];
here is the move thing from another class:Java Code:void render(){ char a=i.move(); if (a=='w'){ if (plrCoordinates[0]==1){ render(); }else{ changey=-1; } } if (a=='s'){ if (plrCoordinates[0]==8){ render(); }else{ changey=1; } } if (a=='a'){ if (plrCoordinates[1]==1){ render(); }else{ changey=-1; } } if (a=='d'){ if (plrCoordinates[1]==8){ render(); }else{ changey=1; } } Random AIMove= new Random(); int x= AIMove.nextInt(3); if (x==0){ if (AICoordinates[0]==8){ render(); }else{ AIchangex=-1; } } if (x==1){ if (AICoordinates[0]==1){ render(); }else{ AIchangex=1; } } if (x==2){ if (AICoordinates[1]==1){ render(); }else{ AIchangey=-1; } } if (x==3){ if (AICoordinates[1]==8){ render(); }else{ AIchangey=1; } } map[plrCoordinates[0]][plrCoordinates[1]]=0; //deletes the old image of the player+AI map[AICoordinates[0]][AICoordinates[1]]=0; plrCoordinates[0]=(byte) (plrCoordinates[0]+changex); //updates the location plrCoordinates[1]=(byte) (plrCoordinates[1]+changey); AICoordinates[0]=(byte) (AICoordinates[0]+AIchangey); AICoordinates[1]=(byte) (AICoordinates[1]+AIchangey); map[plrCoordinates[0]][plrCoordinates[1]]=2; //prints the new location map[AICoordinates[0]][AICoordinates[1]]=3; a=0; //resets the char to prevent infinite movement }
Java Code:char move(){ char c = 0; try { c = (char)System.in.read(); //records a key for movement } catch (IOException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } return c; }
