Level design basics, part 9

 Memory

A level can take 100 mega bytes of random access memory which is taken
on each load. Play a match 20 times, you will have 2 giga bytes of memory
taken. So it is important to separate level files into 10 data base segments.

A navy level would be hard to make as it involves loading ships on the start
base. Saving memory is an important method when it comes to designing a
level. Design is important. That's what after all level design is all about. And

memory plays an important key role.

Memory design:

seal animal

This script code prevents the client user from reading confidential united
states army information used in the game. Made them a lot of troubles while
designing Doom 3. Memory is an important part of human brain; and also

of a personal computer. 90% of the human brain's memory has to be used
all the time. And under standing computer memory enchances human memory
and under standing level game design. Zero is a complicated number. It's hard

to understand, but is used for numero logy in designing computer memory.
And computer memory applications. Data base is a very large set of files that
take tons of memory. Seals are in the united states army, that's why the source

code can be applied when making navy goal levels. Generic memory uses c++
made memory templates from the standard template library. Random access
memory stack applies geo graphy methods that can be used to generate memory

nodes.

object oriented programming

Object oriented programming is a sound and bold approach to c++ and internet wiring application and video games. It reduces a lot of code messes, made by global and half global functions. One of the more advanced object programming techniques are private access, poly morph and object message inheritance. It is set by c++ bjarne stroustrup and iso isometric standard convention comitee to use classes instead of structs and structures for making objects. Which means you most definitely should , but not must or have to. class Monster {     std::string memory_attributes{}; public:     void treck();     void track();     void trace(); }; The treck() function makes the monster roam and do human like jogging and trimming. track() means the monster goes ai path tracking and trace() means it tries to find other monsters in the area. class Weapon {     std::string memory_attributes{}; public:    void use(); }; void Weapon::use() {   ...

C++ and OOP in a different manner

Keep in mind this article is meant strictly for C++ game devs and not for application programmers or game devs of scripting/other languages. I have my own technique when it comes to OOP in C++. The game I'm deving right now(or we are making) is a simple windows console project. It's up to you to decide whether you'll use this technique. First let me tell you in which cases you might need this technique: if you're ready for a new look on OOP if you need a new toolset for your coding practice if you like to learn(which I clearly hope for) So, the technique then. Decide which you prefer more: classes or structures. This helps you understand what kind of objects you want in a game.
