Detailed Description

Parent class for objects that are placed in the maze.

These objects are one maze block big. The image in the bitmap store will be drawn on the screen every frame at the Screen class's discression, being rotated to face in the 'facing' direction. Coordinates are given in terms of the Maze class's coordinate system. For example, increasing the x coordinate of an object by 1 will move it one maze block to the right. The number of pixels that this corresponds to is handled by the Screen class.

When an object is in a situation that it should be destroyed, it is marked for destruction. It is then the responsibility of the Game class to actually destroy it.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

GameObject::GameObject	(	double	x,
		double	y,
		BitmapStore::Image	image,
		Maze::Direction	facing = Maze::UP
	)

Creates a GameObject with the given parameters.

Parameters:

[in]	x	The x coordinate of the new object.
[in]	y	The y coordinate of the new object.
[in]	image	The image that is drawn to represent the object.
[in]	facing	The direction that the object is facing. If the object has no direction, such as with Checkpoint or Rock, the default value of Maze::UP should be used.

Member Function Documentation

bool GameObject::destroyed

(

)

const

Checks if an object has been marked for destruction, for example through a collision.

Returns:

True is the object has been marked for destruction, false otherwise.

Definition at line 16 of file GameObject.cpp.

Maze::Direction GameObject::facing

(

)

const

Provides access to the direction that the object is facing.

Returns:

A direction, corresponding to the rotation that should be done to the drawn image and, in the case of Cars, the direction that they move forward.

Definition at line 24 of file GameObject.cpp.

BitmapStore::Image GameObject::image

(

)

const

Provides access to the image that should be drawn to represent the object.

Returns:

An image, corresponding to an enumerated type that can be converted into a bitmap by the BitmapStore class.

Definition at line 20 of file GameObject.cpp.

double GameObject::x

(

)

const

Provides access to the x coordinate of the object.

Returns:

The x coordinate of the object, in maze blocks, where 0 is the far left column of the maze.

Definition at line 8 of file GameObject.cpp.

double GameObject::y

(

)

const

Provides access to the y coordinate of the object.

Returns:

The y coordinate of the object, in maze blocks, where 0 is the top row of the maze.

Definition at line 12 of file GameObject.cpp.
