Comments on: Not-So-Deep Blue: A Flex2 app that plays Connect Four http://www.joeberkovitz.com/blog/2006/04/08/connect-four/ Just another WordPress weblog Thu, 21 Aug 2008 15:08:01 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.3.3 By: joe http://www.joeberkovitz.com/blog/2006/04/08/connect-four/#comment-8 joe Mon, 11 Sep 2006 21:27:21 +0000 http://www.joeberkovitz.com/blog/2006/04/08/connect-four/#comment-8 Yeah, I didn't really work very hard on the edge cases with the game play. You can even keep on playing after you win or lose :) I've put this project aside for the time being, but I love it when people still find bugs. Really.

The bug I found in the app was when I pressed the "undo" button before starting the game and it spit out a run-time error as follows: TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference. at connect4.model::Game/retractMove() at Connect4/___Button1_click() Other than that, great example to look at! Great application!

I haven't played Connect 4 since I was a kid, and apparently haven't gotten much better since then either... ;-) Awesome job, Joe!

I tied the computer and it thought there were more moves to make. There were none: http://mechanical-bull.com/stuffs/connectTie.jpg great job again, jon Hey joe, very nice AS3 ‘port’ of this classic ;)

How about the next version uses the Messaging Service so that internet players can play against each other? I guess that would negate all the cool AI logic though. -James Cool stuff Joe!

Some may have seen Joe at the last MAX conference where he talked about skinning and styling Flex apps. I recently just started a new position with Allurent where I'll be working closely with Joe and since he's not listed with MXNA yet I wanted to welcome him to the Flash blogging community by sending some people over his way.
