hexagon board walking demo.

[ChangeV]

I made hexagon-grid based tile engine for remake of certain board game while ago(and forgot about it).
recently I rewrote whole thing again.
it's far from finished, but it's functioning enough to make walking demo.

click anywhere on the map and ChangeV will walk to that tile.
you can toggle unpassable wall with right mouse button.
added non-stop walking NPC.
added ChangeV as controllable character.



download ver.6a (added scrolling camera):

I used info/sample from
http://www.policyalmanac.org/games/aStarTutorial.htm
and coderJeff's example
http://www.freebasic.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=9952
I removed all pointer access and replaced them with array index and added more stuff and calculation.
It's not optimized, but it is working.

I reused graphics from my old board game.

Doesn't this seem like the perfect engine to make an RTS with?

Oh, and welcome to the forums!

OK, played it, great example of A*, and you implemented camera scrolling beautifully. Great artwork too. Kind of sucks how there's not much to do at this stage, because it's an awesome engine. I would suggest some savable real-time editing features, like the ability to place tiles and whatnot.
