RE: Steering Game Objects with P.I.D. Control
Thank you for your answer! I wanted to code games... but didn't have the technical expertise or education... I've started (recently) to dabble with Unity to gain some experience in coding games (to create a game engine is a titanic task), so later on I can start my own projects or look for opportunities in the game industry (currently I work as a SysAdmin for an outsourcing company).
Happy to help. For a gentle introduction that is easier than unity, I would first attempt something really simple, maybe a snake game (or pong) in Python e.g.
I'll try that. Thank you!
You actually gave me an idea. I learned to program on a micro computer in the early 80s, which was a much lower threshold for learning to code. You plug the computer in the wall, and you see the prompt of a basic interpreter.
No need for complex tools, no compiler, no GPUs, or window management.
I decided to start a tutorial on how to program Snake for Python, just with a simple output to a command line window. No loading assets, just a gentle introduction to making a video game.
A simple step-by-step programming from zero to snake in 3600 seconds, or something :-) Hey, that's a catchy title! Keep an eye out for it on my feed, in case it interests you.
That would we really great :D! I'll keep my voting power :)). I'll follow every post :D
