Once again, rather than bore you with words, I will attempt to entertain you with a screencast. The screencast will show you how to build your connector using Netbeans and how to deploy and configure your connector using the GlassFish admin console.

Posted by haroldcarr at (07:58 PST) | Permalink | Discuss (0) Hexagonal tile map: To supplement the posts about the triangular and square tilings, let's consider the third type - the hexagonal tiling. This is my favorite one. Each hexagon has more non-diagonal neighbors than a square. It simplifies calculating distance between two tiles. The main disadvantage of this tiling is that the axes are not orthogonal. Posted by malenkov at (01:00 PST) | Permalink | Discuss (5) February 25 2009 Developing SGMP Connectors using JAX-RS (Screencast): Last week we announced the availability of version 1.1 of the Sun GlassFish Mobility Platform (SGMP), formerly known as Mobile Enterprise Platform (MEP). In the previous version, a connector could only be developed using the ECBO API; in this new version, a connector can also be developed using JAX-RS. The attached screencast shows how to develop a JAX-RS connector using Netbeans 6.5 and Maven. Next time we'll focus on how to deploy a JAX-RS connector.

Let's have a look at triangles now. Such tiles are practically not used in games because there is no direct path on the map and the game unit should be turned at each tile. Besides, it is rather hard to place units within acute corners because a lot of free space is wasted.

There are only three regular polygons that can be used as tiles: triangles, squares, and hexagons. Consider the square tiling first. Such tiles are most often used in games because of their ease of processing. Sometimes game developers enable diagonal movement, however, this feature makes calculating distance between two tiles more complicated.
