I am trying to develop a game and i am starting to dip my toes into the HTML <canvas> tag and using it with javascript. My program here is my work in progress clone of PONG. I have managed to add the two paddles with no error but as i have added the Ball function it simply refuses to draw anything on the screen and thus i am given a page covered in black.
Could it be because i am using classes?
Here is the code:
// ctx.fillStyle = 'rgba(red, green, blue, alpha)';
// ctx.fillRect(x, y, width, height);
var canvas;
var ctx;
var dx = 5;
var dy = 5;
//Class Definitions
function Game(width, height, colour) {
this.width = width;
this.height = height;
this.colour = colour;
}
function Player(width, height, colour, x, y, up, down) {
this.width = width;
this.height = height;
this.colour = colour;
this.x = x;
this.y = y;
this.up = up;
this.down = down;
this.move = function(ny) {
this.y = this.y + ny;
ctx.fillStyle = this.colour;
ctx.fillRect(this.x, this.y, this.width, this.height);
};
}
function Ball(width, height, colour, x , y, isTouched, isInGoal) {
this.width = width;
this.height = height;
this.colour = colour;
this.x = x;
this.y = y;
this.isTouched = isTouched;
this.isInGoal = isInGoal;
this.move = function() {
clear();
this.x = this.x + 1;
ctx.fillStyle = this.colour;
ctx.fillRect(this.x, this.y, this.width, this.height);
};
}
//Creating new Classes
var gameStage = new Game((window.innerWidth), (window.innerHeight), 'rgb(0,0,0)');
var paddleOne = new Player(10, 150, 'rgb(255,255,255)', (gameStage.width/10), (gameStage.height/2), 38, 40);
var paddleTwo = new Player(10, 150, 'rgb(255,255,255)', (gameStage.width/1.1), (gameStage.height/2), 87, 83);
var ball = new Ball(20, 20, 'rgb(255,255,255)', (gameStage.width/2), (gameStage.height/2), 0, 0);
//Initialisation
function init(){
canvas = document.getElementById('game');
canvas.setAttribute('width', gameStage.width);
canvas.setAttribute('height', gameStage.height);
canvas.setAttribute('tabindex', 0);
if (game.getContext){
ctx = canvas.getContext('2d');
return setInterval(ball.move, 10);
return setInterval(draw, 10);
}
}
//Canvas Functions
function clear(){
ctx.clearRect(0, 0, gameStage.width, gameStage.height);
}
function draw() {
clear();
ctx.fillStyle = gameStage.colour;
ctx.fillRect(0, 0, gameStage.width, gameStage.height);
ctx.fillStyle = paddleOne.colour;
ctx.fillRect(paddleOne.x, paddleOne.y, paddleOne.width, paddleOne.height);
ctx.fillStyle = paddleTwo.colour;
ctx.fillRect(paddleTwo.x, paddleTwo.y, paddleTwo.width, paddleTwo.height);
console.log("PlayerOne Y Coordinate: " + paddleOne.y + "\n");
console.log("PlayerTwo Y Coordinate: " + paddleTwo.y + "\n");
}
//Player Control
function doKeyDown(e) {
if (e.keyCode == paddleOne.up){
paddleOne.move(-5);
} else if (e.keyCode == paddleOne.down) {
paddleOne.move(5);
} else if (e.keyCode == paddleTwo.up) {
paddleTwo.move(-5);
} else if (e.keyCode == paddleTwo.down) {
paddleTwo.move(5);
}
}
//For HTML
function beginStuff(){
init();
window.addEventListener('keydown', doKeyDown, true);
}* { margin: 0; padding: 0;}
body, html {height: 100%;}
#game {
position: absolute;
width:100%;
height:100%;
