Boardgame to Java port need help with classes
Hi,
I am currently working on a port of a boardgame into Java.
My problem is now how to really realize the game.
It is not a typical boardgame with fields I could store in an array but a tabletop game where the models could be everywhere on the board.
I thought about doing it like the following but maybe you can give me a better/easier solution.
- create a class for a model storing the coordinates and the values (e.g. lifepoints,movement range and so on)
- create a class for the graphics of the models extending JPanel so that i can use a mouselistener to check if someone clicked on the model and returning some info to an infofield.
-create a class for the board extending JComponent loading the background image
-create a modellist class storing all the graphical models in a list to keep track of them
And in the board class i would change the paintComponent to something like that:
publicvoid paintComponent(Graphics g)
{
this.drawBoard(g);
for (i=0;i<modelList.getCount();++i)
{
modelList[i].drawModel(g);
}
}
Is that the right approach to that?
And how can I implement a collision detection? I thought about using sprites is that the correct way or is there a better one?
Thanks in advance>
