Algodoo

I wrote this comment because I was bored.

Algodoo doesn't "think". It's just a physics simulation app. If you published the wrong scene it was because YOU did something wrong.

Good job!

Like WHAT? There's nothing to like!

@Triplus -- Yuck... Vodka tastes horrible!

Thanks!

Great work on this scene!

One observation: When the text box has a lot of words in it, it does not use the selected word that I clicked on.


Also a suggestion: Allow the user to decide if he/she wants the hints (text box) to show. Maybe toggle it with a button press?

I really suck at trying to make mechanical objects with Algodoo. I know a lot about firearms and how they function. In fact I own quite a few pistols and rifles. A few years ago I tried to make a 1911 style .45 ACP pistol and I was not able to get it to function properly so I gave up!

Thanks for the suggestion.

HAPPY NEW YEAR Algodoo Fans!

Understood. It's the old "Speed vs Functionality" dilemma.

In any case, the scene was very well designed, both functionally and aesthetically. It's really quite similar to the original game by the NY Times. I do miss the shaking letters that happens when an entered word cannot be found in its word list. (Don't worry. I'm not suggesting you do that!)

That comes from practice, dedication, and love for Algodoo. I also had some programming experience in my past life.

What does "9999 pond" mean?

Hey finns.... Have you been sniffing glue again?

Hey ricky zero zero one--
What is written on that chain? I'm having trouble reading it?

What does "crige" mean?

Nope. Crige isn't a word. Even Google doesn't know what the word is!

Maybe you should check your spelling BEFORE uploading scenes.

Maybe you should check your spelling BEFORE uploading scenes!

Then why did you tell a lie?

Do you have an older person you can ask how to spell words? Maybe a brother, parent, or friend?

I am asking this in a friendly manner. When you post words that people don't know because they are spelled wrong, they will get confused like I did. I truly want to help you if you will let me.

Okay, your mum will help you spell words. Great!

that says wow but the l word is red. no! NO! it is BLUE! cuz wont any more

Issues and suggestions:

1. Disable the Algodoo clouds. It makes no sense to have clouds floating by when learning how to spell.

2. I assume that the lady with the wand shows up when a word is spelled correctly. If that is true then it does not always work. Many times the lady showed up when I intentionally misspell words.

3. You should alert the person when words are NOT spelled correctly.

4. You should add a Backspace key to erase the last entered letter so that the user can delete an accidental entry.

5. SOUND: Check out some of user s_noonan's Algodoo sound scenes. I'm sure he would answer your questions about how to implement sound in Algodoo. He knows a lot about that kind of stuff.

Nice job on the scene overall!

i played okay now punt red i'm not seen him but orange slide over. seem cant tell me NOT NO NO NO!!! he cant do sim okay bro. it cool sum sus now but never red sus okay okay yeah!!!

If you ever visit the Golden Gate Bridge or any other historical sites in San Francisco, the absolutely best "must see" site is a science museum known as The Exploratorium I have been there many times and I never got tired of it because it changes so often. They keep adding many new and interesting "hands-on" science exhibits. I love that place!

vinodrai -- I edited my comment because I now know that the lady with a wand is a teacher, and the user can click on her for the correct answer. For some reason, the scene description did not show after I downloaded the scene. It just showed some weird characters. After I reloaded the scene I read your instructions and now I understand how to use it! LOL

It does work the way you intended it to work, but as you mentioned it would be much better with sound because some of the images can mean different things to different people. For example, I recognized that gold jug as a "pitcher", as would many other people. But if sound was working, it could say the word "JUG". I hope someone can assist you in getting sound to work with this scene.

Noahphil -- I don't understand what you mean by "do text". Please be more specific.

I have a question for you. I looked at all of your scenes and I see that in every case you upload TWO scenes of the same kind and then you delete one of them! Why do you do that?

Nicely done.

Comment Hope someone can read it.
