I don't think you understand what I mean. I meant dimensions as in 2D/3D.
Not HxW. Facepalm.

an I figure, if it works, why change it

brb adding gs1 parts to the iEra scripts, some are even working!

I'll just sweep in before this thread is turned into another vendetta against Gunderak. The guy's offered an idea, and has even taken the time to produce an example of how it could be developed, so instead of slapping his wrist lets thank him.

didnt mean to put it into any fight or so. yes it is nice to see suggestions with examples being made.

but sometimes you cant just say "this is working like this, ill keep it" ;)  

Well I just figured if it works why change it.
Thanks Emera for backing the idea.
And being that const varname = value; isn't GS1, your statement is incorrect Callimuc.  

    temp.acc = getAcceleratorAxis(2);
    if (this.accelerator > -1000 &&
        abs(temp.acc - this.accelerator) >= 0.3) {
      player.ani = "era_iskate_kickflip";
    }
    this.accelerator = temp.acc;

we use this to do a kickflip  

Who the hell actually uses accelerator when given the option?  

I do
It's actually rather fun when you get used to it.  

This is what I mean if anyone doesn't understand.
The movement is achieved by rotating the device.
Derp.

Looks nice! I like the idea.  

The car graphics and that gani for them needs to change. Script good but dont see how it would fit. If you add a steering wheel, is it supposed to just be on the screen and you will have to learn how to control it?

Ater watching that video, makes more sense now!  

Yeah it would all fit, if you hide the default buttons when driving etc. maybe make it optional in preferences, "steer with accelerometer" but make it pedals instead of buttons.  

Accelerometer controls wouldn't be the easiest to use, and no offense intended, I can't see many people taking to this driving system if it were implemented, but as a seperate option it'd be nice for those that want it.

I found it hard enough to drive around Era in a car already, and the idea of using the accelerometer to navigate through Era would just put me off driving completely, not to mention the game's dimensions would just make it confusing to use effectively. (Looks like you were having difficulty driving it around on your demo video as well ;) )

However, it's a pretty sweet incorporation of the accelerometer. Nice work!  

Cheers.
I mean even if they just make pedals or something (instead of using that ugly button to do everything). It took me what, 10 minutes to make all four pedal sprites, 5 minutes to code it in.  

I'd rather see this implemented for events. Like a foot race or something. Cars are hard enough controlling regularly.
