Complex bullet pattern algorithms

Post by MrDys »

Can anyone point me to a good code example for making complex bullet patterns? Ideally, I'd use BulletML (in fact, it's exactly what I want), but I have to develop in Flash, so that's out of the question. (Yes, I know there's a BulletML to SWF thing, but that only really generates BulletML demos in Flash and I can't add any interactivity.)

I suppose that I could try to port a BulletML parser to Actionscript, but I'd really rather work on the project than work on porting something to help with the project.

Surely, fancy shooting patterns existed before BulletML...
