A hobby game developer currently working on a space fleet sim called Command Actual (working title). The game is being developed in Scala/Java, although I have toyed with the idea of using Clojure.

“The Game Object” - and component-based design It does move the problem around but to a place that is more tenable. Systems have their relevant components hard wired. Systems can communicate to one another through Components (StateMachine can set a component value that Animation reads in to know what to do (or it could fire an Event). The dictionary approach sounds like the Properties Pattern which can also work. The nice thing about Components is that related properties are grouped together and they can be statically checked. No bizarre errors because you added "Dammage" in one place but tried to retrieve it using "Damage" in another. |

Is there an in memory data store that is feasible for real time, non-networked games? I want to be able to do things like "Get all of the ogres in the forest without a weapon" and some place else "Get all buildings that haven't been damaged". I feel like there is a more consistent way to do this. I don't want to necessarily say a SQL interface but some more consistent means of querying game data that is at least reasonably performant. |
