The Grid

1 Frame = what second?

[makslane]

It depends of the frame rate of your game.

[jimmynewguy]

the unchanged frame rate for GE is 30fps (30 frames per second) you can change this in config -> game properties -> frame rate

[Kalladdolf]

Yay, 1 fps is teh b3st *shot*.
(For instance on an old mixture between a calculator and a tetris-console I once had...)

1 fps can be too much if you talking about gmod but games that you have to think very fast
that would be fine.

[BlarghNRawr]

uhm
i think you might have it backwards
1 fps is really slow. am i wrong?

[Fuzzy]

1 frame is 0.0333333333 seconds, if you set FPS to 30. That is 33 milliseconds.

60 FPS is 0.016666666, (16 milliseconds) and GE has a minimum timer limit of 12 milliseconds, so 75 FPS (0.0133333333) is pretty much the practical limit. You might be able to draw faster, but its going to cause you timing problems.

Most humans cannot see much faster than 30 FPS anyway.

actually, the higher the fps, the slower the game, in some cases, i had alot of fps in gmod and it ws slower than mollases (sarcasim) it was very slow though.

[Bee-Ant]

I can make Timer with 10 milisecond.
Btw, whats the loop timer in Draw Actor? It seems 10 milisecond?

[makslane]

The Draw Actor event is called in each frame, so, if your frame rate is 30, the Draw Actor event will be called each 33ms

[Bee-Ant]

Oh...
But it seems its faster than 33ms.
What about the Timer itself, does framerate affect it?

[makslane]

The timers are independent of the frame rate.

[Bee-Ant]

Back to the grid, whats the limit of the axis?
It seems its imposible to be unlimited...
I think from -999999999 to 999999999

[Fuzzy]

The axis are floats, so its hard to say what the limit is. After very big numbers(billions) you will get odd effects.

[Bee-Ant]

And is there a loop system? I mean when you hit the +limit, you will be at -limit. Because when i make an actor, put yvelocity++; and let it fall, after sometime it will back to the screen from up. is this what you mean with odd effect?
