Workings of the Mario Clone

UML Diagram Of the Project

Selecting and Setting up Graphics for the project :

I have use the SFML (Simple and Fast Multi-media Library) . The reason for selection was its emphasis on OOP concepts and the configurable DLL (dynamically linked libraries) .

Setting it up was a hastle but overall it was rewarding .

The character and the graphics are rendered

Taking inputs from Keyboard

To do that I used a build-in class from the SFML , the class KEYBOARD Takes in a bool ‘IS PRESSED’ with is triggered by another instance of the KEYBOARD class that takes a bool that takes in a defined key from the keyboard as a parameter .

Similar when applied with negation changes the values of bool that updates the player state .

Mapping keys to controls to objects

The main function has the Event class objects that is inside the object of RenderWindow class object .

This object takes in the input states On/Off and passes that to the ‘PlayerClass’ It has Update function that takes in the bool function . And
Ingerited object from the PlatformClass

Object to Object Collison Function

The PlatformClass is inhterited to the PlayerClass , so that PlayerObject iamge can access the coordinates of the platform image objects .
