just a basic question about the size of sprites... if it is the single image wall...how am i supposed to know that it moves off into the second and third tile for collision??

I always split my walls up into single-tile pieces. In the end, it was simpler this way. I could still use wall segments that covered multiple tiles, but each segment would be split into smaller tile-sized pieces for drawing, and the level generation script was responsible for correct placement of the pieces.
thanks! just wanted to confirm.
Just for the sake of completness, there are few threads on how to draw these large blocks as one instead of many, and still maintaining the correct draw order, HOWEVER, something keeps coming back, and that is the fact that you cannot properly light large objects unless you do per-pixel, in which case it would still be more troublesome.
