I am developing HTML5 boardgame with Javascript.
How I can find (recursively) where I can get with dice number I get?
Example: I get 4 from dice and my position is 11. Possible places are 22, 15 and 7.
I have tried this; it works great, but returns wrong numbers into console:
$(function(){
// Initialize
var pos = 11;
var dice = 4;
var diceMax = 4;
var postPlaces = [];
var places = [];
// List of gameboard's numbers: from where to where
numbers = {
1 : [25,21,2],
2 : [1,3],
3 : [2,4],
4 : [3,5],
5 : [4,6],
6 : [5,19,7],
7 : [6,8],
8 : [7,9],
9 : [10,8],
10 : [11,9],
11 : [10,12],
12 : [11,13],
13 : [12,14],
14 : [13,15,22],
15 : [14,16],
16 : [15,17],
17 : [16,20,18],
18 : [17,19],
19 : [18,6],
20 : [17,21],
21 : [1,20],
22 : [14,23],
23 : [22,24],
24 : [23,25],
25 : [24,1]
};
// List all numbers where is possible to go with dice number we got
function findPlaces(number){
dice -= 1;
$.each(numbers[number],function(i,v){
if(postPlaces.indexOf(v) == -1){
postPlaces.push(v);
if(dice>0){
findPlaces(v);
}else{
places.push(v);
}
}
});
dice = diceMax;
}
// When the button get pressed
$("button").click(function(){
postPlaces = [];
places = [];
dice = diceMax;
findPlaces(pos);
console.log(places);
});
});
