Strategy Game Development 2

Name: =+=*=F=R=O=Z=E=N==V=O=I=D=*=+= !frozEn/KIg 2009-07-29 2:14

I've decided to change direction in development of Velox Et Astrum.
The game will be created under these development principles:
1.One Design - Multiple Implementations.
2.All aspects are reviewed by everyone.
3.No deadlines or concrete dates.
4.Each opinion and suggestion has to be proved and explained.(otherwise its discarded)
5.No restrictions on language/toolkit/libraries(see 1.)
If you have something complex to discuss is better handled by forum mentioned in my sig.

How do ideas come? What a question! If they come of their own accord, they are apt to arrive at the most unexpected time and place. For the most part the place is out of doors, for up in this northern wilderness when nature puts on a show it is an inspiring one. There seem to be magic days once in a while, with some rare quality of light that hold a body spellbound: In sub-zero weather there will be a burst of unbelievable color when the mountain turns a deep purple, a thing it refuses to do in summer. Then comes the hard part: how to plan a picture so as to give to others what has happened to you. To render in paint an experience, to suggest the sense of light and color, air and space, there is no such thing as sitting down outside and trying to make a “portrait” of it. It lasts for only a minute, for one thing, and it isn’t an inspiration that can be copied on the spot...

    1. Use fprintf ("fast printf") instead of printf.
    2. ++i is faster than both i++ and i = i + 1.
    3. void main(void) is faster than int main(void) or int main(int, char **) since no value needs to be returned to the OS.
    4. Swapping with exclusive-or (a^=b^=a^=b swaps a and b) is faster than using a temporary. This works for all types (including structures), but not on all compilers. Some compilers may also give you a harmless warning.
    5. Static storage duration objects are faster than automatic storage duration objects because the CPU doesn't have to set aside storage on the stack every time a function is called. Make your loop indexes global so that you can use them everywhere:
    int i;
    void func(void) { for (i = 0; i < 10; i++) ; /* ... */ }
    void func2(void) { for (i = 0; i < 20; i++) ; /* ... */ }
    /* ... */
    6. Compilers often give more memory to arrays than you asked for. Here's how to check how big an array actually is (memset returns a null pointer if the size you passed to it is bigger than the size of the array you passed to it):
    int arr[256];
    size_t realsize;
    for (realsize = 0; realsize <= SIZE_MAX; ++realsize)
            if (!memset(arr, 0, realsize)) break;
    /* now you know that arr actually has realsize / sizeof (int) elements */
    If you combine this with #5, your program will be faster in the long run (but this usually doesn't work for short programs).
