actionscript 3 - Breakout with Flash: I need help to improve my Brick n Ball collision -

-

i've been stuck on problem long time now, i've searched around alot , tried stuff, nothing works. explanations hard me understand im pretty new programming overall , got alot learn.

i have 2 problems

1: ball wont collide bricks when speed fast.

2: ball capable of hitting 2 bricks. both problems related fact 60 fps isnt enough type of collision detection work properly.

i need explain in simple way possible need make collision detection prevent happen.

here's current collision code:

private function checkcollision(): void {   grdx = math.floor((ball.x) / 28);   grdy = math.floor((ball.y) / 14);   ngrdx = math.floor((ball.x + dx) / 28);   ngrdy = math.floor((ball.y + dy) / 14);   var flipx: boolean = false;   var flipy: boolean = false;   if ((grdy <= level.length - 1) &&        (ngrdy <= level.length - 1) &&        (grdy >= 0 && ngrdy >= 0)) {     if (testblock(grdx, ngrdy)) {       flipy = true;       paddleflag = 1;     }     if (testblock(ngrdx, grdy)) {       flipx = true;       paddleflag = 1;     }     if (testblock(ngrdx, ngrdy)) {       flipx = true;       flipy = true;       paddleflag = 1;     }     dx *= flipx ? -1 : 1;     dy *= flipy ? -1 : 1;   } } private function testblock(xpos: int, ypos: int): boolean {   if (level[ypos][xpos] > 0 && level[ypos][xpos] != 13) {     trace("hit on x,y");     level[ypos][xpos] = 0;     breakblock("block_" + ypos + "_" + xpos);     trace("block: " + totalbreaks + " / " + totalblocks);     return true;   }   return false; } private function breakblock(blockname: string): void {   if (this.getchildbyname(blockname)) {     this.removechild(this.getchildbyname(blockname));     totalbreaks++;   } }

thank , sorry bad english, not motherlanguage.

one solution move ball in smaller iterations, multiple times in given frame.

for example, , giving solution assuming moving ball based on time elapsed last frame.

suppose 30 milliseconds have elapsed since last frame update. in case update movement/collision twice in frame using 15 millisecond time elapsed.

the higher resolution of collision want, more iterations do.

here's example :

 // class declarations  var lastframe:number;  var iterationsperframe:int;  function startgame():void {      // lets specify 3 updates per frame      iterationsperframe = 3;       // save initial time      lastframe = gettimer();       // create listener      addeventlistener(event.enter_frame, update); }  function update(e:event):void {      var currentframe:number = gettimer();      var deltatime:number = (currentframe - lastframe)/1000;       var iterationdelta:number = deltatime/iterationsperframe;       (var index:int = 0;index < iterationsperframe;index++)      {           // i'm assuming dx,dy velocity of ball, in pixels per second           ball.x += dx * iterationdelta;           ball.y += dy * iterationdelta;          // check collision      }        // set lastframe currentframe time, preparing next frame      lastframe = currentframe;       // after this, frame going render }

How to calculate SNR of signals in MATLAB? -

-
i've encountered simple, yet fundamental problem on calculating snr: there several signals : s1 = original , pure clean signal without noise. n1 = white gaussian noise going added s1. s2 = s1 + n1 (the noisy signal before performing noise-reduction algorithm) s3 = noise-reduced signal (after performing noise reduction algorithm) n2 = s3 - s1 (the amount of noise after performing noise-reduction algorithm) now want compare snr before , after performing noise-reduction algorithm. which signals should consider snr_before!? s1/n1 or s2/n1 ? which signals should consider snr_after!? s3/n1 or s3/n2 ? which commands or functions should use in matlab in order compute snr_before , snr_after? thanks billion putting time on helping me. what know calculating snr before : snrbeforenoise = mean( signal .^ 2 ) / mean( noise .^ 2 ); and snr after : residual_noise = signal - noise_reduced_signal; snr_after = mean( signal .^ 2 ) / mean( residual_noise .^ 2...

i need place custom knob image shadow uislider. far have image of 38x38, of there region defines shadow of knob. now while using image, when slide knob extreme ends actual knob not able cover end points, hence end points visible under transparent region of knob image this code using customize uislider uiimage *slidebtimg = [uiimage imagenamed:sliderknobimg]; [self.ratingslider setthumbimage:slidebtimg forstate:uicontrolstatenormal]; [self.ratingslider setthumbimage:slidebtimg forstate:uicontrolstatehighlighted]; how can implement custom knob shadow beneath it, covering end points?? look inside uislider.h , there methods let customize slider knob , track needed.
