Nov 2	comment	How can I implement gravity? Ha I have just been hit with the cluebat. Thanks.
Nov 2	comment	How important is Programming for a Level Designer? +1 Processing is great.
Nov 2	comment	How important is Programming for a Level Designer? @WryGrin like Markus says, maybe start with a simpler language. Scratch (scratch.mit.edu) is designed as an education lang and there are lots of resources to get you started. Once you've managed that move onto to textual langs and you'll soon get the hang.
Nov 2	comment	How important is Programming for a Level Designer? @Marton don't think most places look for programming designers in my experience. However I think they should, it's extremely helpful to have a designer who can prototype or script on their own, and it's always going to be another string in your bow if you can.
Nov 2	comment	Passing elapsed time to the update function from the game loop Stylistic options: The majority of game engines I've worked with pass the elapsed time as seconds in a float. Some pass milliseconds in a uint. Unity3D uses a seconds float but stores it in a singleton rather than pass it around. All valid options.
