here goes---> i''m designing a pacman clone(for personnal pleasure) and while all seams to be running smoothly upto now, when ever i try to go east or south pac eats all the bleedin walls up heres the movement code switch (sprite_currDir) { case N: sprite_yPos--; sprite_mxPos = (sprite_xPos + (SPRITE_WIDTH/36))/18; sprite_myPos = (sprite_yPos + (SPRITE_HEIGHT/36))/18; while (map[sprite_myPos][sprite_mxPos] == 2) { sprite_yPos++; sprite_mxPos = (sprite_xPos + (SPRITE_WIDTH/36))/18; sprite_myPos = (sprite_yPos + (SPRITE_HEIGHT/36))/18; } break; case S: sprite_yPos++; sprite_mxPos = (sprite_xPos + (SPRITE_WIDTH/2))/18; sprite_myPos = (sprite_yPos + (SPRITE_HEIGHT/2))/18; while (map[sprite_myPos][sprite_mxPos] == 2) { sprite_yPos--; sprite_mxPos = (sprite_xPos + (SPRITE_WIDTH/2))/18; sprite_myPos = (sprite_yPos + (SPRITE_HEIGHT/2))/18; } break; case W: sprite_xPos--; sprite_mxPos = (sprite_xPos + (SPRITE_WIDTH/36))/18; sprite_myPos = (sprite_yPos + (SPRITE_HEIGHT/36))/18; while (map[sprite_myPos][sprite_mxPos] == 2) { sprite_xPos++; sprite_mxPos = (sprite_xPos + (SPRITE_WIDTH/36))/18 ; sprite_myPos = (sprite_yPos + (SPRITE_HEIGHT/36))/18; } break; case E: sprite_xPos++; sprite_mxPos = (sprite_xPos + (SPRITE_WIDTH/2))/18; sprite_myPos = (sprite_yPos + (SPRITE_HEIGHT/2))/18; while (map[sprite_myPos][sprite_mxPos] == 2) { sprite_xPos--; sprite_mxPos = (sprite_xPos + (SPRITE_WIDTH/2))/18 ; sprite_myPos = (sprite_yPos + (SPRITE_HEIGHT/2))/18; } break; } i am using a char array of 22x19 map[x][y]== 2 is the walls ne help will be appreciated if further info is required please reply or contact me on icq 120471999, will send entire source code if needed thnx in advance

im not to sure but Y do u have for S,E

sprite_mxPos = (sprite_xPos + (SPRITE_WIDTH/2))/18;

and

sprite_mxPos = (sprite_xPos + (SPRITE_WIDTH/36))/18;

ule notice that u devide by 2 on SE and 36 in toher directions, this will mac mr pac man much bigger i think and destoy walls??


~prevail by daring to fail~

My PacMan used to always take a dump on his sleeping pillow. What I did is every time I''d rub his nose in it and eventually he stopped!

i''m kinda new to all this but here goes, changed a few parameters

now s & e work, n & w dont work properly now

is it me or is there an easier way to keep pac dead center within the map

and does anyone understand this code (i copied this portion of code from somewere else, problem is i cant remember were)

slightly amended code--->

switch (sprite_currDir)
{
case N:
sprite_yPos--;
sprite_mxPos = (sprite_xPos + (SPRITE_WIDTH/36))/18;
sprite_myPos = (sprite_yPos + (SPRITE_HEIGHT/36))/18;

while (map[sprite_myPos][sprite_mxPos] == 2)
{
sprite_yPos++;
sprite_mxPos = (sprite_xPos + (SPRITE_WIDTH/36))/18;
sprite_myPos = (sprite_yPos + (SPRITE_HEIGHT/36))/18;
}
break;

case S:
sprite_yPos++;
sprite_mxPos = (sprite_xPos-1 + (SPRITE_WIDTH))/18;
sprite_myPos = (sprite_yPos-1 + (SPRITE_HEIGHT))/18;

while (map[sprite_myPos][sprite_mxPos] == 2)
{
sprite_yPos--;
sprite_mxPos = (sprite_xPos-1 + (SPRITE_WIDTH))/18;
sprite_myPos = (sprite_yPos-1 + (SPRITE_HEIGHT))/18;
}
break;

case W:
sprite_xPos--;
sprite_mxPos = (sprite_xPos + (SPRITE_WIDTH/36))/18;
sprite_myPos = (sprite_yPos + (SPRITE_HEIGHT/36))/18;

while (map[sprite_myPos][sprite_mxPos] == 2)
{
sprite_xPos++;
sprite_mxPos = (sprite_xPos + (SPRITE_WIDTH/36))/18 ;
sprite_myPos = (sprite_yPos + (SPRITE_HEIGHT/36))/18;
}
break;

case E:
sprite_xPos++;
sprite_mxPos = (sprite_xPos-1 + (SPRITE_WIDTH))/18;
sprite_myPos = (sprite_yPos-1 + (SPRITE_HEIGHT))/18;

while (map[sprite_myPos][sprite_mxPos] == 2)
{
sprite_xPos--;
sprite_mxPos = (sprite_xPos-1 + (SPRITE_WIDTH))/18 ;
sprite_myPos = (sprite_yPos-1 + (SPRITE_HEIGHT))/18;
}
break;
}
