Fighty

November 8th, 2009

Fighty is a battlemap gadget for Google Wave, intended for using Wave for gaming.

Here’s what it does:

  • Takes a custom map from maplib.net
  • Presents that in a wave
  • Allows users to pan and zoom, synced with that gadget instance.
  • Allows users to add, and move markers

It’s still in developement, so it’s not quite complete for what I want, but here’s how to use it today.

  1. Setup an account at http://www.maplib.net, upload your map.
  2. Take the id for your map (e.g. http://www.maplib.net/map.php?id=xxx) where xxx is your map id
  3. Add the gadget to your wave: http://www.savevsgeek.com/fighty.php?id=xxx where xxx is your map id

Update:

I’ve added a git repository for my source. Not much different than what you’d see if you just downloaded the page (most all the ‘work’ is being done in javascript after all)

Here it is: http://github.com/exedore6/Fighty

Update 11/08/09 – Got mode locking/syncing working this is a bit of a change (you’ve got to be editing the container blip to actually change anything), let me know if it screws anyone up.
