Hi,
I would like to create a slot machine (I know, who doesn't), but am not sure of the best approach.
All the tutorials I've seen/tried use a simple pickerview, but the result is really a poor man's slots it seems. It doesn't do the following, which I want to do:
- start all reels spinning at the same time, then stop them, one after another (mabye use more than 1 pickerview?)
- show more than 1 row at a time (maybe I want 3, 5, whatever)
- have the animation be nice and smooth as possible
- have a nice bounce effect when it stops
- possibly stop the reel halfway between symbols, as some slot machines do
So any advice on the best way to do the above would be appreciated. i.e. should I use SpriteKit; my own customviews with long vertical strips of images and then just adjust the top position to spin; or can pickerview(s) do all the above? etc, etc.
thx!
