Games [XUI2D] Space Shooter

[Erel]

Interesting points:

- The world size is based on the screen size. The world width is constant. This is different than in other examples.
- The movement in B4A and B4i is done with a motor that moves the ship to the target point. In B4J we apply forces based on the input keys.

Example is included in the examples pack.

I've uploaded a new version. There was an issue related to the Start sub where it could have been called multiple times concurrently. It happened because this is a resumable sub (it waits for the "get ready" message to disappear).

The solution is:

Public Sub Start
   If X2.IsRunning Then Return
   StartIndex = StartIndex + 1
   Dim MyIndex As Int = StartIndex
   Wait For (ShowMessage("Get Ready...")) Complete (Success As Boolean)
   If MyIndex <> StartIndex Then Return 'this means that the game was started again while the message appeared.
