here you can see some more cool stuff

its a really easy tutorial =D helped me understand what a vector class is xD never used vectors
but gona try to implement shooting when rotate so i read that vectors can help alot in that =D

enjoy =D

#2

It doesn’t show how to do any math with them though, which just basically makes them containers. :frowning:

#3

well its really good for beginners that does not know what vector2D class is, and that dont know how to create it xD

#4

Well if said beginner doesn’t know how to use vectors, then they could just use a library like LibGDX.

#5

Vectors are like magnitude simpler concept than full framework like libGDX.

#6

I wasn’t saying use LibGDX just if you needed vector classes, I was just saying that I feel if someone wants to make games, OpenGL is the way to go, hence a beginner’s choice is narrowed down to a game library, and LibGDX has the most functions etc.

Here’s a far better tutorial on vectors.

#8

…or they could just learn how to use vectors. Mightily useful things they are.

#9

libgdx doesn’t hinder learning how to use vectors. Maybe you are implying that writing your own vector class is a good idea? (hint: no)

#10

No, I’m implying that it’s worth tackling the problem head on and learning a bit about the maths behind vectors. CopyableCougar’s point struck me as “Can’t use vectors? Use LibGDX”. My response is “Can’t use vectors? Learn how to use vectors”.
