Think as to why the ones on the market work as they do and the ones you can find work differently... it's really quite simple to figure out. This is not a change that should be made not is it one likely to be made.

The whole Nightwing joins the Police story which is cool and interesting when handled right, but this isn't being handled right as is the whole dissaffected youth that doesn't like their "mentor" thing.

i have no problem with it, but it's not original like you said.

He's lame and the story is bad written if he is because it gave it away badly and if it's not then then it's bad for that because then those scenes add nothing to the story... actually in a lot of cases they take away from them in the way they are presented and where they are presented.

Mandates are fine when there is actually inspiration behind them. Adding minority characters just because doesn't do anyone any good because they almost all come off as trash because they are noone's passion and vision in which case they are shabbily thrown together and then they go "see noone wants to buy that"

It's not. It's just Bruce mixed with a story arc from Nightwing that takes place in africa. Massacre, though i didn't read this month's issue, is weak and predictable. He's Batwing's brother. The story telling is bad and many scenes are out of place. The idea of the kingdom is just the idea of a JL that formed in africa.

It's uninspired corporate mandate crap that isn't interesting and for all their "diversification" what they really did is just add a bunch of black and mexican characters into having titles or in titles. If they really wanted to show they had some integrity and really go the diversity route Night Runner would have been the character used, not this Batwing character that is so obviously mandate created.

So it seems it's a good thing I haven't read any more new comics since Dec 15th. At least they aren't ruining Swamp Thing and Animal Man

Side note: Wouldn't it be funny if DC did this just to make Liefeld realize he sucked and so they give him several books and then cancel them every few months ^.^

Batman
Detective Comics
Nightwing
Batwing
Justice League
Justice League International
Batman, Inc.
Batwoman
Batman and Robin
Batman: The Dark Knight

Batman Beyond is coming back

and according to "The Source" these books are also Bat-books
Catwoman
Birds of Prey
Red and the Outlaws

One could also make the argument that Suicide Squad is a Bat-Book due to it really being Harley & Deadshot

Nothing wrong with using those words and if you feel there is you should teach your children to not use them or when to use them ^.^ Kids are sponges, like you said... therefor they'll learn the rules too!

Isn't that a good thing? Foamy argues good points and does it comedically ... that's a good thing that children listen to smart people.

as far as webcomics i read...

I didn't read the instructions, but if I was dumb I might think that somewhere in them, because of the preceding article, one of the instructions were to "get a planet"

yeah sorta...

you are bombarded with light from all over so you wouldnt notice a decrease in light for the most part but what happens is that the light ray slows way down, temporarily causing a gap. It's hard to describe in words but basically imagine a desyncing of the thing you are seeing and all other senses because it can only be held for a short time... So assuming they got it to slow down for 5 seconds what wold happen is that whatever is slowing the light is in the suit and is holding it with the suit so the for 5 seconds after you enter a room you are invisible, but then where every you are the light from those 5 seconds start getting released from where you are... so we can see where you are, but what we are seeing is what you did 5 seconds ago though distorted... you also see a shadow on the ground as you normally would. you'd hear all the sounds and smell all the smells.



though you could technically make a complete cloak out of it if you could figure out how to hold the light for long periods of time... you could also use the tech to possibly increase the effectiveness of solar panels though im not sure how practical that would be...

Yeah... my mind just keeps trying to figure it out is all ^.^ The answer is already there for what he wants the program to do, but there is never anything wrong with discussing other ways to do the same thing or how to make it cleaner or what not as if it is a learning then that's sorta the point.

Also it's graphical programming which my mind just fizzles on which results in the above mentioned trying to figure it out. Brain goes into over drive... over heats...and then crashes ^.^ And thats also why you get all those crazy messed up edits that i noticed later on how stupid they were and that i was correct before i edited >.>

yeah... a, b, c, d is just easier to keep straight in your head than window.x window.y...

btw I was thinking about this more.

Let me see if I understand what you're doing...

you have surface with a puck on it in an absolute position.
You then can move the window with which you are looking at this surface and puck.
You can touch a point on the window which shoots a straight line from that point to the surface which is where the puck should then move to?

If this is accurate then what you are doing is what I said earlier..which is messing with equations for finding the length of a side of a triangle.

So to go through mentally what I'd do...

#1. Window or Portal is an object and contains the following variables
Angle, height, width, pos(x,y), touch(x,y)

Angle is the angle of the window from the ground...which is important.
Height and width are the size of the window which will be needed to figure out position of touch in the world
pos is the position of the window, based on the the upper left corner of the window.
Touch is the position of where you're touch the window and works off the window's position (ie upper left is 1,1 and as you go down and right it increases)

#2. Set up a convert sub-function of touch in the window to where that touch is in the world... the object's touch would be called window.touch.x while this one would be called touch.x or something like that...

this object would have angle, x, y, and possibly z parameters... z is stationary right? or is it not?

#3.

do the simple math for where the puck should be... this should be something like...

Assuming that the ground is 180 degrees and the window is stationary it should be 90 degrees which means all valid angles would be 45 degrees or less (unless you can move the window), but this should be a "if window angle > 45 break"

You know the height of the window to the ground which gives you the length of the side...so if your angle is say 45 degrees the puck should...if I remember right... move the same distance as the height of the of the window or double it or half it... something like that. So all you need is the touch(x,y,z) - puck(x,y,z) and then you need the angle(s) of the window.

And then you simply calculate for that

And that formula is at this website http://library.thinkquest.org/20991/alg2/eqtri.html
under Law of Sines

It's higher level math and outside my realm, but I'm sure you understand it and that should give you what you need and if you follow what I said it should give you a lot more freedom in the program to mess with in program.


And those calculations and such look nothing like what you have, but then I barely understand what you are doing with those calcs.
