This Sonic video seems to be really popular video, would any playbasic game coders be interested in a more in depth look into how you can program Sonic to do loops ?

The  original source code is in the video description but it just shows one  way of attaching sonic to a guide path, then moving Sonic through a series of way points..  It works but the source code was written over a decade  ago..    We can probably do better today.

Let us know if your interested in the comments bellow here or on youtube !




Get - Sonic Loop Source Code

i just downloaded the code and will have a look at it.

thinking about it, i would use a radius from a given location, test for collision based off angle (at bottom), then use sin/cos to rotate around it one revolution.
It's easy to start a program, but harder to finish it...

I think that means i am getting old and get side tracked too easy.
