Trying to get a Battleship Program ASAP

[BadMrBox]

@Raffa Great for you .

@Burger2227

Mr Bad Box, what does your name connotate to the average person? It does not sound real friendly to me.

And your's sound like lunch. I don't know what's your hangup about my name is. It's not the first time you go down this lane kid but please... make this the last time ok? I think that you are rude and you say that I'm an unfriendly person because I'm calling myself what I do? Sigh.

If you had given us ONE piece of code, perhaps we all would have helped!
You actually gave us NOTHING to work with except that there are 3 boats!

1) How are the boats supposed to be made?
2) How are the boats shot at?
3) Who shoots who?
4) Where is one line of CODE from you?

Under the circumstances, it appears that you have no idea of how to do the program and you have the balls to blame other people? Don't try to blame anybody here for your LACK of EFFORT! I don't know how you got it done from this thread, because there was virtually no real help given, but go ahead and beat me up LOL.

[burger2227]

Concerning your handle. I don't have a problem with it. I just wonder how you came up with it? I have never met a Bad Box yet LOL.

My handle is based on my last name. I have been called Burger for years!
And I ain't no kid sonny!

At first, I was looking for somebody to help me write it, now after meeting you Burger, you completely turn me away from it. If learning QB ever turns me into somebody like you, it's not worth it

PS - I finally got it to work, thanks to everybody else

Chill . If you think Burger is ill-mannered, then welcome to the internet. We all have bad moods.

Would you like FreeBasic? http://www.freebasic.net/forum/index.php
It's like QBasic.

And try the code (in QB or FB):

Code: Select all

SCREEN 12
COLOR 15
PSET (5,5)
PSET (6,6)

DO
     LET KEY$=INKEY$
LOOP WHILE KEY$=""

LINE (10,10)-(300,200)

From what I can determine, it is a two-player game. How is it played.

My guess:

Get Player 1 password.
Get Player 2 password.

do
Demand Player 1 password
Allow Player 1 to play
Clear the screen
Demand Player 2 password
Allow Player 2 to play
Clear the screen
loop

This appears to be a tough assignment. Each player has 2 grids: 1 for where his own ships are placed and 1 to show where shots have been been made so far.

I would require about 10 pages of detailed specifications before I would undertake to take such a program.

The man said he finished it! GREAT! Perhaps I got him so mad that he did it himself. If that is what it takes, then I am proud of my efforts! All I was trying to do was light a flame under his butt.

Mac, you ought to make one too. I know you could do it! And it would be done the right way too.

Good job Raffa! I hope it makes your instructor happy.

Thanks guys, it took me like three hours, but I discovered a bunch of new stuff. Like pset, line, paint, and circle. Just needed to get angry enough to do it. I'll be sitcking around there forums for awhile Want me to show the program?

[MystikShadows]

Please do, for the sake of others, learning as you were (before they have to get angry lol) or face the wrath of burger2227 lol

[Raffa]

dun dun duuuuunnnn.
ya, I'll put it up tonight.

[Mentat]

After you turn it in - if you want - you can post the code and we'll help show you better techniques using the program as a guide. And debug it.
