@soywiz said in High CPU usage when game is idle:

This is not currently implemented, but could be implemented in a future version. Both not flipping the buffer and adjusting the fps.

Thank you @soywiz . I created https://github.com/korlibs/korge-next/issues/176 for this.

I also created the issue to allow downloading KorGe artifacts via JCenter: https://github.com/korlibs/korge-next/issues/121

I also noticed that centerOn stopped working (at least in some cases) after some KotGe library upgrade.
And I easily changed this to the manually calculated positioning ( position(x, y) )
E.g. in https://github.com/andstatus/game2048/blob/master/src/commonMain/kotlin/org/andstatus/game2048/presenter/Block.kt I changed:

centerOn(this@graphics)

to

position(cellSize / 2, cellSize / 2)

@Saiful-Anwar Thank you for the contribution!
I only had to fix it a bit 🙂 and add wrapping for e.g. Chinese texts,
and it works well for my Help screen.

ended up doing this.:

var down = false onDown { down = true GlobalScope.launch { delay(500) if (down) { // do the thing } } } onUp { down = false }

@RezMike Thank you for the tutorial and for the working game app!
I think that KorGe community may be also interested in my 2048 game implementation that I created based on it.

But it's not a clone of that repository: it's a rewrite aiming at becoming a (board) game template that is easy to modify, to extend and to play with using Kotlin programming language and KorGe game engine.

Following this goal, the source code has been structured and cleaned. We're trying to use
board games terminology (e.g. Glossary of chess)
in order ease understanding of implementation logic.

Please see https://github.com/andstatus/game2048

I see, no problem. I was expecting that this might be pretty far out there.
Thanks anyways!

To close the loop on this, I've submitted a PR to change this in korge-next and it's been merged.

I'll try that, thanks.

I just found that out by myself, lol.
This is so easy, I was looking to get the bytes r/g/b separate...
Very cool!

I'm afraid we don't have that yet. We don't have too much resources, so we are focusing on the code. But any contribution in that direction will be awesome.

I think we discussed that on slack/discord already.
No ECS provided by the engine, but some people talked about that stuff via chat, so not sure if someone will work on a ECS engine.
Regarding to shaders: Shaders on KorGE are usually applied via filters, and created using a DSL for that. Please, check this link: https://github.com/korlibs/korge/blob/16aac42d6cf0e4eed19e088e12b73282661cf0f4/korge/src/commonMain/kotlin/com/soywiz/korge/view/filter/WaveFilter.kt#L31-L40

We plan to support that directly at some point. But in the meantime, you can create a project using korge-admob module as reference (using expect and actual per platform):
