Missiles

[mjohnsonengr]

Missiles can:

• be created by player or enemy, etc. with an initial direction, speed, size
• constantly move in direction until collide with something
• increase score if hits enemy, delete missile and enemy
• decrease lives if hits player, trigger respawn timer

Working on this this weekend in bullet branch. All that's left after tonight is to add collision to the missile which will require adding a hook-up point to Players and Enemies, for example, adding a IShootable interface with a "shot()" method that gets called by the collision code. My knowledge isn't sufficient here to accurately speak of the devices available for this.

I don't remember where I left off, but I already did the IShootable interface with an onShot() method. I just have yet to add anything to it for the player.

A couple of items are not finished, but I will close this as these other items are covered by other issues.

• increases score and kills enemy - #4
• decrease lives if hits player, trigger respawn timer - #15
