SDLx::FPS3pm
A more convenient way to set a framerate
Usage
use SDLx::FPS;my $fps = SDLx::FPS->new(fps => 60);while(1) { # Main game loop# Do game related stuff$fps->delay;}
Overview
SDLx::FPS simplifies the task of giving your game a framerate. Basically, it combines the methods of "SDL::GFX::Framerate" and "SDL::GFX::FPSManager" into a single module. Use it to delay the main loop to keep it at a specified framerate.
Methods
new
my $fps = SDLx::FPS->new( fps => 30 );No arguments are required, if no "fps" is specified, the default FPS is 30.
set
$fps->set($new_framerate);Same as "SDL::GFX::Framerate::set". Set the new desired framerate.
get
Same as "SDL::GFX::Framerate::get". Get the currently set framerate.
delay
Same as "SDL::GFX::Framerate::delay". Generate a delay to accommodate currently set framerate. Call once in the graphics/rendering loop. If the computer cannot keep up with the rate (i.e. drawing too slow), the delay is 0 and the delay interpolation is reset.
framecount
Return the "framecount".
rateticks
Return the "rateticks".
lastticks
Return the "lastticks".
rate
Return the "rate".
