A little plug for Blitz ...
Miscellaneous Forums/General Discussion/A little plug for Blitz ... Nice one Jeremy. Pitching Blitz for prototyping purposes could be an excellent way to pull in some of those C++ die hards.
Nice article. Particularly like your use of pencil art to illustrate the point!

Nice simple article there, helps show what blitz can do ie make complex stuff simple, i've been doing all this stuff with my project.
You can stick each planet into zones and if the player is in that zone just do the rays from the player to the planet centre for the zone he is in. This way you don't have to figure out wich way the rays need to be cast.
The next thing which was even more complex is doing the control system just like in mario when your upside down, sideways etc, trust me i know, i've done it :-)
