Hi Manuel,
There is no tutorial but there are samples. Just try to get what so and so code does. And most of the samples are also commented.
If you can tell us what sort of game you are planning, maybe we can help you better.
Remember, DS is still in beta but every now and then, new functionalities are being added. So, though there are not much tutorials, a good can come out anytime.
There is also a community wiki and it needs help from everyone including you. If you find that wiki is missing something, please consider adding it to wiki.

P.S. We have Steve German here. So, ask a question for some functionality and you'll surely get an answer.

Hi Manuel,

If you want game tutorials and examples, then you might be best using the Phaser game framework.  You can download our Phaser example using the WiFi editor (on the demos) page and start there.  Then go to the Phaser web site and follow the tutorials there.  You will need a fairly modern phone to use Phaser though because it requires WebGL to perform well.

Regards

David

[Manuel Lopes]

Is for offline games ?if yes can show an sample to work on droidscript?thanks

[Chris]

Um. Did you READ the phaser information? And Dave already answered that.

[Manuel Lopes]

Is possible make offline games in droidscript with this module called enchant.js?if yes can you please post a sample to work with this?thanks

[Manuel Lopes]

Anyone?

[Chris]

Download the enchant.js - create a webview, code your game, load it into the webview. (DroidScript comes with samples for using webview).

Any of the enchant demos run in a webview.

[Manuel Lopes]

Webview is server ?or can be in phone offline without any server?thanks im newbie

[Manuel Lopes]

I download the wise9-enchant.js-v0.8.2-282-ga72c381.zip

Now what i have to extract or not?

[Manuel Lopes]

Chris i have the sample example called hello bear now how to put work? Thanks

[Chris]

Yes, webview can be used offline. Webview is technically the stock browser that comes with your device, minus all the controls. Think of it as an embedded browser.

Create a javascript app in DroidScript.


// Called when application is started.
function OnStart()
{
//Create a layout with objects vertically centered.
lay = app.CreateLayout( "linear", "VCenter,FillXY" );

//Create a web control.
web = app.CreateWebView( 0.8, 0.8 );
lay.AddChild( web );

web.LoadUrl( "file:///Page.html" );

app.AddLayout( lay );
}

Copy the example js and html files into your DroidScript app folder
/sdcard/DroidDcript/appName

Rename Page.html in my example to your html page example.

That should get you started.

[Chris]

typo - /sdcard/DroidScript/AppName/

[Manuel Lopes]

I put

// Called when application is started. 
function OnStart() 
{ 
        //Create a layout with objects vertically centered. 
        lay = app.CreateLayout( "linear", "VCenter,FillXY" );         

        //Create a web control. 
        web = app.CreateWebView( 0.8, 0.8 );   
        lay.AddChild( web ); 

        web.LoadUrl( "file:///sdcard/DroidScript/lk/index.html/" ); 
  
        app.AddLayout( lay ); 
} 



Give error script error. file:///android_asset/webkit/android-weberror.png

[Chris]

Take the last '/' off your path, and add 'IgnoreErrors' to the webview create.

[Selo Soft]

Try this code ,all in apk or spk
    web = app.CreateWebView( 1, 1,"AllowZoom,Wide,AutoZoom" ,70); 
    web.SetOnProgress( web_OnProgess );
    web.SetBackGradient( "#461E62" , "#461E62" )
    web.SetPosition(0, 0.06);
    lay.AddChild( web ); 

    var isApk = (app.GetAppPath()=="/Assets"); 
     
    if( isApk ) folder="file:///android_asset/user/html/"; 
    else folder="file://"+app.GetAppPath()+"/html/"; 
    web.LoadUrl( folder + "index.html" ); 

//Show page load progress.
function web_OnProgess( progress )
{
app.Debug( "progress = " + progress );
if( progress==100 ) app.HideProgress();
}

[Manuel Lopes]

I only remove the / and give error enchanted not defined

[Manuel Lopes]

Work without error but show dark screen and not show anything

function OnStart() 
{ 
        //Create a layout with objects vertically centered. 
        lay = app.CreateLayout( "linear", "VCenter,FillXY" );         

        //Create a web control. 
        web = app.CreateWebView( 0.8, 0.8 );

Enchanted is the .js into the build folder
index.html :
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta http-equiv="x-ua-compatible" content="IE=Edge">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, user-scalable=no">
<meta name="apple-mobile-web-app-capable" content="yes">
<script type="text/javascript" src=" storage/emulated/0/DroidScript /build/enchant.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="main.js"></script>
<style type="text/css">
body {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>

You need to move the build folder under your droisdcript app folder. Move EVERYTHING needed into this folder.

Then, use relative paths.

/build/enchant.js will not work, but build/enchant.js will -- IF it is in your app folder.

It is important, especially when using javascript libraries, that they are in your app folder, and the structure of the library stays intact.
