Looking for a Black Jack MMF2 example (simple)

[2dgamers]

Jeff sent me a "video poker" example but it is too much for my feeble brain to wrap around it. (Thanks Jeff, I appreciate that!)

So does anyone have a simple black jack example that doesn't use any extraordinary extensions -- just the ones that come with MMF2, (expansion packs included?)

If you could make a quick, commented example, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks!

I did a blackjack game a couple of years ago, but I don't have it at hand:


But it's not that hard to make one. Basically I had 2 important objects. The list object and one active object.

The active object stored 4 useranimations (diamonds, clubs, hearts, spades). And the cardgfx being directions 1 to 13 in each useranimation. 11-13 would be jack,queen,king.

The list object would store all possible cards in the deck (52). Everytime I needed to generate a card, I would randomly select a line in the list object and create the active object with the right animation/direction to display the right card. Then delete the line from the list to make sure not to have the same card drawn twice.

For player and dealer turns I used 2 different groups to keep track of who was drawing the cards and where to place them.

Each time a card is drawn by player or dealer, I would have a counter for each one, which would keep track of the card values by adding up as cards were drawn.

Hope this gives you some ideas how to make it?

It gives me some ideas -- I'll see what I can come up with. If you find that code though, it would help to see an example. ;P
