Thread: Primary game build, feedback welcome

I'm having an animation problem:

When i fire a weapon initialy the plasma blast sprite seems to ghost a little, creating the impression that the ship has fired twice, the ghosting gradually resolves itself and by about half way up the screen it looks ok again.

When i slowed the frame rate down to have a closer look the problem evaporated.

You can see the effect on my latest build here (the problem is especially noticeable with the blue plasma rings):

If the problem was that my code isn't running fast enough i would have expected the frame rate to drop, yet that hasn't happened...... *puzzled*.

damnit i need new PC!

Well atleast the problem is not with the code

i couldnt get the sound to start on my machine, are you using windows media for the music or other?

Wow this game is really coming along. Good job.

"i couldnt get the sound to start on my machine, are you using windows media for the music or other?"

I turned the sound off, it that version, it was bugging me because i had to continually make changes to the code then restart the game.
