public class SendToLocation extends Decorator implements TranslatablePiece
This trait adds a command that sends a piece to another location. Options for the target location are:
  • Specified x,y co-ords on a named map/board
  • The centre of a named Zone on a named map
  • A named Region on a named map
  • The location of another counter selected by a Property Match String
  • A specified grid-location on a given board & map

    • Once the target location is identified, it can be further offset in the X and Y directions by a set of multipliers. All Input Fields may use $...$ variable names

      • mySetType

        public void mySetType​(String type)
        Description copied from interface: EditablePiece
        Sets the information for this piece. See Decorator.myGetType()
        Specified by:
        mySetType in interface EditablePiece
        Parameters:
        type - a serialized configuration string to set the "type information" of this piece, which is information that doesn't change during the course of a single game (e.g. Image Files, Context Menu strings, etc). Typically ready to be processed e.g. by SequenceEncoder.decode()

      • myGetType

        public String myGetType()
        Description copied from class: Decorator
        The "type information" of a piece or trait is information that does not change during the course of a game. Image file names, context menu strings, etc., all should be reflected in the type. The type information is returned serialized string form, ready to be decoded by a SequenceEncoder#decode.
        Specified by:
        myGetType in class Decorator
        Returns:
        the type information of this trait alone
        See Also:
        BasicCommandEncoder, which returns type information for all inward piece members as well

      • myGetKeyCommands

        protected KeyCommand[] myGetKeyCommands()
        Specified by:
        myGetKeyCommands in class Decorator
        Returns:
        the key commands for this trait alone
        See Also:
        which returns the key commands for this trait AND all inner piece members

      • myGetState

        public String myGetState()
        Description copied from class: Decorator
        The "state information" is "game state" information that can change during the course of a game. State information is saved when the game is saved and is transferred between players on the server. For example, the relative order of pieces in a stack is state information, but whether the stack is expanded is not.
        Specified by:
        myGetState in class Decorator
        Returns:
        the game state information of this trait alone
        See Also:
        which returns state information for all inward piece members as well

      • myKeyEvent

        public Command myKeyEvent​(KeyStroke stroke)
        Description copied from class: Decorator
        The response of this trait alone to the given KeyStroke or the virtual keystroke of a NamedKeyStroke. NamedKeyStrokes are allocated a unique internal KeyStroke when they are first used in a module, and that KeyStroke is passed up and down the decorator stack to represent them (see NamedKeyStroke.getKeyStroke()).
        Specified by:
        myKeyEvent in class Decorator
        Parameters:
        stroke - KeyStroke to apply (to apply a Named Keystroke send NamedKeyStroke.getKeyStroke()
        Returns:
        Generated Command to reproduce any changes just made to to the game state, or null if no effect
        See Also:
        Decorator.keyEvent(javax.swing.KeyStroke)

      • offsetDestination

        protected Point offsetDestination​(int x, int y, GamePiece outer)

      • mySetState

        public void mySetState​(String newState)
        Description copied from class: Decorator
        Sets the state of this-trait-only (inverse of Decorator.myGetState()). The "state information" is information that can change during the course of a game. State information is saved when the game is saved and is transferred between players on the server. For example, the relative order of pieces in a stack is state information, but whether the stack is expanded is not.
        Specified by:
        mySetState in class Decorator
        Parameters:
        newState - New state information serialized in string form, ready to be passed to a SequenceEncoder#decode.

      • boundingBox

        public Rectangle boundingBox()
        Specified by:
        boundingBox in interface GamePiece
        Returns:
        The area which this GamePiece occupies when drawn at the point (0,0)

      • draw

        public void draw​(Graphics g, int x, int y, Component obs, double zoom)
        Description copied from interface: GamePiece
        Draw this GamePiece
        Specified by:
        draw in interface GamePiece
        Parameters:
        g - target Graphics object
        x - x-location of the center of the piece
        y - y-location of the center of the piece
        obs - the Component on which this piece is being drawn
        zoom - the scaling factor.

      • getName

        public String getName()
        Description copied from interface: GamePiece
        The plain English name for this piece
        Specified by:
        getName in interface GamePiece

      • getShape

        public Shape getShape()
        Specified by:
        getShape in interface GamePiece
        Returns:
        The shape of the piece from the user's viewpoint. This defines the area in which the user must click to select or move the piece, for example. Like GamePiece.boundingBox(), it assumes the position is (0,0) -- which to be clear is normally aligned with the CENTER of the piece image -- and must be translated to the actual location where the piece is being drawn. For most ordinary pieces, the shape returned here will simply be equivalent to the bounding box, but see NonRectangular.

      • getEditor

        public PieceEditor getEditor()
        Specified by:
        getEditor in interface EditablePiece
        Overrides:
        getEditor in class Decorator
        Returns:
        the configurer for this trait - the dialog which allows the editing the piece's type information. Default configurer is a SimplePieceEditor, but many traits will want to provide custom versions.

      • getDescription

        public String getDescription()
        Description copied from interface: EditablePiece
        A plain-English description of this type of piece
        Specified by:
        getDescription in interface EditablePiece

      • getHelpFile

        public HelpFile getHelpFile()
        Specified by:

        Description copied from class: Decorator
        Return Internationalization (I18n) data for this piece
        Specified by:
        getI18nData in interface TranslatablePiece
        Overrides:

      • testEquals

        public boolean testEquals​(Object o)
        Description copied from class: Decorator
        Test if this Decorator's Class, Type and State are equal to another trait. Implementations of this method should compare the individual values of the fields that make up the Decorators Type and State. Implementations should NOT compare the values returned by myGetType() or myGetState(). This method is intended to be used by Unit Tests to verify that a trait is unchanged after going through a process such as serialization/deserialization.
        Overrides:
        testEquals in class Decorator
        Parameters:
        o - Object to compare this Decorator to
        Returns:
        true if the Class, type and state all match
