distance is 0-n, I need to convert the distance to 0-255. If I could I would do it like this for example: increasement=256/max_distance;
  for(x=0;x
But I can''t in this case. I need it to be somehow check with the current distance. Here''s what I''m trying to do with a circle:
  if(x
I know this is an easy question, but my brains are seriously jammed atm and I can''t figure out it by myself right now. So any help would be appritiated. thank you

  double multiplier = 256/n;

now if n were say 128.....the multiplier would be 2
so any distance would be mutliplied by 2 to get the distance in terms of 0 to 255
