gwt-Yahtzee

Sun, 11/05/2006 - 12:31 — charlie.collins

Cooper mentioned to me the other day that it was sort of a minor tradition at North Avenue Trade School to write a Yahtzee! clone in each new language attempted.

Hence yesterday I wrote gwt-Yahtzee, just to do it.

Check it out, but please keep in mind it has a way to go, this is the first rev. I have a few browser quirks still to deal with, have a few things I need to add (like the bonuses, saving high scores, etc) and need to improve the look at feel (but thanks to GWT thats just CSS) - but the main functionality is there.

Code is located at: http://code.google.com/p/gwtyahtzee/.

RE: gwt-Yahtzee

Actually the source is not on google code yet, planned to have it there but I got a server 502 error when the project was created, then tried to create again and got project name already exists, then went back to the existing project and it looks like the SVN is totally screwed up.

So I have a half a project because of errors on Google Code. Next comes trying to actually contact someone at Google about this, godspeed to me.

My daughter found a bug in the alpha version, its not adding the last item (chance at this point) to the score. Will fix that next rev, soon.

RE: gwt-Yahtzee

you've got a bug... I can click on "roll dice" three times per turn.

RE: gwt-Yahtzee

I am not sure if thats a joke or not, in case it's not, you are supposed to get three rolls per turn w/yahtzee. You click on the dice you want to "keep" and try to make your "hands" out of three rolls, etc.

RE: gwt-Yahtzee

I've just been informed that I've played yahtzee wrong all my life and that there are, in fact, three rolls. Mea culpa.

RE: gwt-Yahtzee

I thought the same thing. I guess I have played wrong my whole life too.

One thing I DO know, though, is you get SHIT for landing on Free Parking, fuckers.

RE: gwt-Yahtzee

Couple of things, there:

I shouldn't be able to block a die on the first roll.

There seems to be something where sometimes it doesn't roll, or maybe I just get the same one up again. Might be nice if the "roll" blanked out the non-blocked dice and paused a second just so you know it happened.

RE: gwt-Yahtzee

Aah, Just got burned by this:

You should be able to get multiple Yahtzee's in the same round too.
