Mini-Map Defender¶
Note
This example runs in the Arcade 2.4 set of code. You’ll need to specifically install the pre-release alpha or beta versions.
This example shows how to create a ‘mini-map’ using frame buffers. Frame buffers allow us to draw off-screen. We can then take that image and draw it elsewhere.
Section 1 - Define Constants¶
Lines 26-32
At the start of our code, define some constants that specify how large your mini-map is. In this case, our mini-map is at the top of the screen, and the main playing field is below.
Section 2 - Create Frame Buffer¶
Lines 172-189
As our window opens up, we need to define a frame buffer that will hold our mini-map.
Figure out the size and position.
Create an OpenGL shader program. This is a simple pre-defined shader that just passes through vertex and texture data.
Create a color attachment, which holds what color each pixel is.
Create a frame buffer, and tell it to use the color attachment to hold data.
Create a rectangle that defines where we will draw the mini-map.
Section 3 - Draw to Mini-Map¶
Lines 226-238
Any time we want to draw to the frame buffer instead of the screen, there’s a
use method in the frame buffer. So in this case, we can do:
self.mini_map_screen.use()
To switch back to the screen, use the windows use method:
self.use()
Once we select the frame buffer, we set the viewport to encompass our entire playing field. Then we draw the sprites we want in the mini-map. Note that this example doesn’t draw the background stars or bullets to the mini-map. The program can easily select what should appear in the mini-map this way.
Section 4 - Draw Mini-Map to Screen¶
Lines 263-280
While we’ve drawn the mini-map, it is off-screen and we can’t see it. In this case, we render it to the pre-defined location with:
self.mini_map_color_attachment.use(0)
self.mini_map_rect.render(self.program)
The rest of the code in this section calculates a rectangle on the mini-map that outlines what the user can see on the mini-map.
