I am making a 'Connect Four' game in The Powder Toy. Currently it's very successful, currently running these functions flawlessly:
- Stacking
- Column selecting
- Turn changing (you cant select your column when it's not your turn)
- Randomiser CPU
But there are 2 functions that I'm just not genial enough to be able to make:
- A 4-in-a-row detector (can detect when there's 4 in a row of the same colour in any direction)
- Display the winner (a byproduct of the 4-in-a-row detector)
If you really, REALLY think you can help me with this, then check out my saves, find the Connect Four one and then make some designs.
I will credit you in the description of the save & give you a huge thanks :)
so this is your save id:1529899
I would like to try and help. it would be nice to have some basic instructions on what the player needs to do to start the game and take a turn. also it appears that there is some flaw that turns one of column 3 upper locations on regardless of which column you select, or I am doing something wrong. just the same, I am going to work on an idea. I will let you know what I learn.
I have a possible solution. I am not quite done. I will send you an ID soon.
