Instance Method Details

#second ⇒ Object Also known as: seconds, secs, sec

Provides the suffix ‘second’ which will translate seconds to game ticks. This is to allow for a number of seconds to be expressed in situations where game ticks are used (e.g. animations).

Examples:

Expressing an animation that takes place over 3 seconds (~180 ticks)


class ExampleScene < Metro::Scene
  draws :title

  animate :title, to: { x: 320, y: 444 }, interval: 3.seconds
end

def second
  (self * 1000 / Numeric.tick_interval).floor
end

#tick ⇒ Object Also known as: ticks

Provides the suffix ‘tick’ which will simply express the number with a vanity suffix.

Examples:

Expressing an animation that takes place over 60 game ticks


class ExampleScene < Metro::Scene
  draws :title

  animate :title, to: { x: 320, y: 444 }, interval: 60.ticks
end
