rockwars/ROCKWARS.BAS

'QBasic Rockwars v1.1, by Brennen Bearnes
'Version 1.1 has the following changes:
'1. A startup menu with the ability to change game settings.
'2. 3 different types of game.
'3. End screen now asks if you want to play again.
'4. A few small changes and optimizations (I hope).

'You play the part of the blue castle.  You've been attacked by
'the red castle, who has started sending robotic tanks equipped with
'a short range death ray at you.  Fortunately, you've been hard at work
'on your own secret weapon, a powerful catapult that can launch rocks
'all the way to the other side of the screen.

'How to play:
'A tank will start coming at you as soon as the game begins.  If the
'red castle is fairly close, then you should shoot the tank first.
'Every time you blow up a tank, the red castle sends another one,
'so sooner or later, you'll have to hit the castle.  To fire, press
'F1, and type in the angle (10-180) and velocity (0-100) you want.  Be
'sure to take the wind into account.  If the tank gets close enough,
'then you're toast.

'Brent P. Newhall did all the code for the explosions, as well as the star
'field, and a number of other small but effective changes.
'The little moon orbiting a planet in the background was done
'by Marco Koegler (and thanks to everyone else that told me how to do it).
'I figured out how to plot the projectiles from GORILLA.BAS, which I
'found on an old computer at school.

'Suggestions are welcome, and if you improve this in any way, please
'send me a copy.

' Brent P. Newhall edited 9/30/96
' Notes: The explode code now restores the screen to how it looked prior
'        to the explosion.  I then added code to erase the bullet and
'        exploded item just after the explosion.  I also added the stars.
'        Before, you could enter an angle of zero and just wipe out
'        anything before you.  Now the angle can be no less than 10.
'        I've also cleaned up the code a bit, making it more readable,
'        less time- and memory-intensive, etc.

'Thanks Brent!

''and came up with this simple explosion program.  Any suggestions,

''NOTES: There are two lines that do not wrap properly; you'll be able to
''find them easily.  Also, NumArcs is set to 100, which does an
''acceptable explosion on my 486DX2/50 with 8 megs of RAM.  You Pentium
''people should be able to get a much nicer explosion if you set NumArcs
''equal to 1000 or so.

''The program sets colors 100 to 131 to varying shades of red, orange,
''and yellow for the explosive effect, with the nice side-effect that
'you can theoretically do several explosions at once.
