ocadotechnology/rapid-router

A Blockly and python based educational game aimed at students age 5-14.

rapid-router's Issues

Add package graphics to game

Check initial data fixture works with App Engine database

Something funny going on here

Level 5

The road ends where it shouldn't.

Python interpreter for JS

Autoscrolling on the iPad mini only happens when van is already several steps off the side of the screen

Script app engine deployment

With bash or docker or something...

Get app moved to European servers

Add traffic lights to game

Fix house being off map

Scoring system!

Make warehouse look less rubbish

Explosions!

Add fuel level and fuel gauge gfx

Doesn't tell user that they ran out of instructions when they don't have any instructions

...maybe tell them how silly they are being if they do this > 10 times

Support saving / loading of programs from server

Create screen to see all pupils logged in for a class

Game layout doesn't scale on ipad mini

Allow level description pop-ups

So we can give the students an idea of the goals of the level and provide pointers/assistance to get them started, and teach them about the new elements.

Should be possible just to add a big ol' text field onto the level class.

Do we want to support smart phones too?

Support saving/loading programs on the server

Graphics get choppy on ipad mini in long programs

Blockly to python converter

"Starting" sound doesn't appear to be muted by Mute

This certainly seems to be the case on the iPad Mini

Restrict the maximum number of times you can loop

Currently you can put nonsensically large numbers into the repeat block (see screenshot below). The block has a validator that prevents you from putting in a negative or NaN value. It is possible to hack a different validator onto it with the below code, but perhaps there is a nicer way to do this (hopefully without having to copy the whole block definition):

var controlsRepeatBlock = Blockly.Blocks['controls_repeat'];
var originalInit = controlsRepeatBlock.init;
controlsRepeatBlock.init = function () {
    originalInit.call(this);

    this.inputList[0].fieldRow[1].changeHandler_ = function(text) {
        var n = Blockly.FieldTextInput.numberValidator(text);
        if (n) {
            n = String(Math.min(Math.max(0, Math.floor(n)), 10));
        }
        return n;
    };
};

Also, @eddarmitage noted that this would not prevent nested loops, but I'm not sure there's much we can do about those...

Map designer needs to be able to set pieces that are allowed to be used
