I'm writing a simple tic tac toe game and after each win or loss, I want the player to chose whether they want to go first or second (be the X or 0). What is the best strategy for getting this information?
You can Display an AlertDialog
for this to have RadioButton
for 0 and X so its easy and recommended way to give an options to players .
See sample code for your reference:
AlertDialog playerDialog;
// Strings to Show In Dialog with Radio Buttons
final CharSequence[] items = {" Zero "," Cross "};
// Creating and Building the Dialog
AlertDialog.Builder builder = new AlertDialog.Builder(this);
builder.setTitle("Select Your Player");
builder.setSingleChoiceItems(items, -1, new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int item) {
switch(item)
{
case 0:
// Your code when first option selected
break;
case 1:
// Your code when 2nd option selected
break;
}
playerDialog.dismiss();
}
});
playerDialog = builder.create();
playerDialog.show();
