pxt-darts

A slightly editted version of this has been transferred to be a built in library in Arcade.

Note: darts take control over the background image when tracing paths; this means that changing the image using scene category will not function properly. See updateBackground.

Darts namespace blocks:

darts.create(Image, kind, x?, y?): Dart

create a new dart with the given image / kind. Optionally pass inital x / y coordinates

Dart blocks:

Dart.throw(): void

throw the dart in the given direction

Dart.stop(): void

stop the dart at it's current location

Dart.setTrace(boolean): void

trace the 'estimated' path of the dart (or turn off if passed false)

Dart.controlWithArrowKeys(boolean?): void

control direction and power of dart with arrow keys (or turn off if passed false)

Dart.updateBackground(img: Image): void

set background image for dart to trace on

Dart Properties:

angle: angle to throw dart at
power: power to throw dart at
tracing time (seconds): how long in seconds to estimate movement
trace color: color of trace (if trace is set to on)
gravity: how much downward acceleration to apply to dart
wind: how much horizontal acceleration to apply to dart
angle rate: rate at which angle should change when controlling dart relative to normal rate (i.e. a rate of 2 will make it change twice as fast)
power rate: rate at which power should change when controlling dart relative to normal rate (i.e. a rate of 2 will make it change twice as fast)
