About TurtleBlocks3D

Turtle Blocks 3D is an extension of Turtle Blocks into three dimensions. Instead of moving a turtle on a plane, the turtle can be moved in a three-dimensional Cartesian space. TurtleBlocks3D-about.png

Where to get TurtleBlocks3D

The TurtleBlocks3D activity is available for download from the Sugar Activity Library: TurtleBlocks3D

The source code is available on Walter's Github.

Toolbars

The following will only describe the items in the toolbar that are explicit to the 3D Version, for others go to Turtle Art's wiki page

TurtleBlocks3D-toolbar-001.png

TurtleBlocks3D-toolbar-004.png

Now you can save your 3D Grpahic files from TurtleBlocks3D to .obj files or load them.

[like the ones generated in blender]

Example .obj

It is 3D, So you can also choose where to look from, With the Camera position option you can choose top, front, left, right, top-left and top-right camera positions!

Turtle Palette

These blocks are used to control the movements of the turtle.

  • set camera xyz: set camera's x,y,z position
  • set xyz: set turtle's x,y,z position (0,0,0) is the center of the screen
  • zcor: holds current z-coordinate value of the turtle (can be used in place of a number block)
  • set roll: set turtle's roll
  • set pitch: set turtle's pitch
  • get heading: heading: holds current heading value of the turtle
  • get roll: heading: holds current roll value of the turtle (can be used in place of a number block)
  • get pitch: heading: holds current pitch value of the turtle (can be used in place of a number block)

Modifying TurtleBlocks3D

  • We plan to add texture mapping.
  • Rewrite a JS Version of the activity

Support

Support for this activity is provided by the developer at walter@sugarlabs.org
