I am now master of the ~galaxy~ gravity!
Ahem.
I mean, I can now control the gravity via input range so I can control the movement of my box.
The precondition was solving the collision detection from yesterday. I took the time and explained the logic in an issue against xem's repo.
If you have more parts that pique your interest, let me know. I plan to write more about geometric algebra as I go along.
Today's achievement
I implemented gravity and have first boundary and collision checks in place: Play it online.
commit diff 4f857eeb10b97e5df1383942aa653ef8fe1e417d to f5eca1e2964b0a4625ab2e7acfbd52234ba01814
Next steps
Sadly, canvas (the package) is required by jsdom to manipulate a canvas
element. That would mean a compilation, which is reportedly not possible on
CentOS (what my hoster uses). I have to rip out JSDom as a consequence.
Zach recommended linkedom. I expect this problem to take considerable amount of my time.
Codewise
- See ToDos from yesterday.
- Replace JSDom with an alternative.
