Tutorial: Making Scrabble!

Bravo! [import]uid: 19626 topic_id: 26248 reply_id: 106597[/import]

Thanks guys :slight_smile:

Now what to do next… I’m thinking maybe a tower defence game? Path finding and tower placement etc… But I’m open to ideas! Anyone have any other suggestions? :slight_smile: [import]uid: 69826 topic_id: 26248 reply_id: 106633[/import]

Thanks TandG! Definitely have my vote for a tower defense game next. One of my fav genres of games. [import]uid: 31262 topic_id: 26248 reply_id: 106642[/import]

+1 for a tower defense game from me too!

I’d +1 with Tower Defense - such a popular genre and tackles various challenging elements of app creation.

Thanks for the shout out, glad my work could assist you with your wonderfully community-minded project :wink:

Looks like tower defence would be pretty popular. The next one will be on that then :slight_smile: I better do a bit of research into pathfinding then lol.

No problem, thanks for the code and retweets :smiley: [import]uid: 69826 topic_id: 26248 reply_id: 106747[/import]

Sorry for bumping the topic again, but the tutorial has just been updated!
Rodrigo was asking me how he would go about changing it over to work with Portuguese words, so i thought i would give it a go! The source code in the tutorial now has two folders in; one for the English version, and the other for the Portuguese version.

All i had to do to get it working in another language was to make sure that accented letters were recognised and that you had the ability to change which accent was on the letter.
If anyone is looking to change it to their language as well, i would recommend looking over the Portuguese source code (the letter array, the moveLetter function and the wordlist mainly).

Thanks :slight_smile: [import]uid: 69826 topic_id: 26248 reply_id: 106758[/import]

Hey Jamie - TandG , I thank you so much for doing so!

Your attention is something am really glad of since the first “contact” on Twitter. :slight_smile:
I`ll have a look only now because with our FUSO being so different that I could not look at it before. :wink:
I hope that I did not bother you…haha.
Many thanks mate,

Sincerely,
Rodrigo. [import]uid: 89165 topic_id: 26248 reply_id: 106844[/import]

Hi Rodgrigo!

You didn’t bother me at all! I forgot our time zones are completely different, so I’m sorry for the early morning email lol.

No problem, I hope you find the translated version helpful :slight_smile: [import]uid: 69826 topic_id: 26248 reply_id: 106866[/import]

Jamie ,

Be sure that what you have done about the PT version is much more than HELPFUL my friend!

You did an amazing job to get it working nicely there.
PS:I`ve sent you a mail as well. :slight_smile:
Many thanks,
Rodrigo. [import]uid: 89165 topic_id: 26248 reply_id: 106883[/import]

AWZUM! [import]uid: 10389 topic_id: 26248 reply_id: 106936[/import]

No problem Rodrigo! I’ve emailed you back by the way, I’m intrigued to know what this other “challenge” may be :wink:

Thanks Jason! :slight_smile: [import]uid: 69826 topic_id: 26248 reply_id: 106984[/import]

@Jamie,
Sorry being late to reply mate!

I just saw your mail and will answer you as soon as posible today yet.

Be calm because the challenge for you (that have done all the nice work until now) will be easy too, I think. :wink:

Saludos Amigo,

Hey Rodrigo, sorry for the slow reply i’ve been really busy!

I got your email; i will add that extra letter into the portuguese version tomorrow when i have some time, then i’ll send you an email when the new version has been uploaded to our website :slight_smile:

In regards to making it 1 player… why would you want to do that? :stuck_out_tongue: who plays scrabble by themselves lol?
If you are determined to have it 1 player though you could quite easily change it. Just find any reference to p2Text, p2Score and whosGo and remove/edit them where necessary and it will be one player :slight_smile:

I’ll let you know when the changes have been made to the portuguese version!

Thanks,
Jamie [import]uid: 69826 topic_id: 26248 reply_id: 107635[/import]

@Jamie,

I have no words of thanks for you anymore my friend. :slight_smile:

It`s really very kind of you take YOUR time only to help me out (sure others too).

Do not worry about the time because I know that you have your own things to do!
I`m glad of this and will wait your mail.
Cheers,
Rodrigo. [import]uid: 89165 topic_id: 26248 reply_id: 107675[/import]

@Rodrigo, the updated portuguese version is now available to download from our website :slight_smile: Let me know if the new letter C works. I couldn’t really test it as i couldn’t spell any words that would use it lol…

[import]uid: 69826 topic_id: 26248 reply_id: 107867[/import]

@Jamie,

I`ll check this out asap!!

THANK YOU VERY MUCH. .)

Can anyone help me in creating this project i am very new to this …

Create a SQLite database with the following questions/answers:

What islands are there in India’s east? ANDAMAN & NICOBAR
What is the country with Kabul as a capital? AFGHANISTAN
What is the synonym of beauty? PULCHRITUDE
In every screen, present a random question. The answer will be scrambled such that preferably no letter is not the right location if possible (if not, as few letters as possible). The user will unscramble the letters. For every letter that is on the right location, highlight as green. If not, highlight as red.

Once all the letters are correct, wait for 5 seconds & reload to the next question.
please help me … thanks in advance
