I'm primarily interested in seeing if I can learn Stencyl enough to quickly prototype board and card games, and so was delighted to see that somebody had already made what looks like a really nice script for the basic actions of shuffling and dealing out a regular deck of playing cards:
http://www.flashandmath.com/howtos/carddeal/index.htmlWhat's more, it's a tutorial, so it's commented to the nth...unfortunately, as someone who's still feeling his way around the basics of Stencyl itself, this is still three levels above where I'm at.
So it would be great if someone who knows Flash could port this over to Stencyl as a kit—preferably as much in Design Mode as possible, actually, so folks like me can use it not just as a basis for a game involving a regular deck of cards, but as a way to learn how to do all the randomizing-and-selecting-from-a-decent-sized-array stuff that any game involving any sort of cards (or tiles, or dominoes, etc.) is going to involve. Thanks, and if there's any grunt work to be done, I'd be happy to help...I just need someone to point me in the right direction.
