WOuld loveOk here is a bitmore detailed version of help with my problem!question.
Im makingWhat i want to do:
i simply want the have a 2d tile basedarray to represent my game using javascript and canvasmap.
im usingi want a 2d arrayplayer sprite and i want that sprite to holdbe able to move around my map info like freely using the keyboard and also have collisions with certain tiles of my map array.
i want to use very large maps so i need a viewport.
What i have:
I have a loop to load the tile images into an array:
/Loop to load tile images into an array
var mapTiles = [];
for (x = 0; x <= 256; x++) {
var imageObj = new Image(); // new instance for each image
imageObj.src = "images/prototype/"+x+".jpg";
mapTiles.push(imageObj);
}

Now, the map draws perfectly. My problem lies with the player entity. when i move the player (using keypresses) it thinks its landing on a different tileID. So for instance, i know that ifI have my player moves left 1 tile,loop to place the value of thatcorrect tile should be 2, but if i print outsin the value it should be moving to (2), it comes up with a different value.correct positions:
Ive worked out that my map is drawing column by column, but my player, is moving on the array thinking that the array is flipped horizontally, if that makes sense.
//Loop to place tiles onto screen in correct position
for (x = 0; x <= viewWidth; x++){
for (y = 0; y <= viewHeight; y++){
var width = 32;
var height = 32;
context.drawImage(mapTiles[board[y+viewY][x+viewX]],x*width, y*height);
}
}
Any help with this would be great and if you need any more info please ask.I Have my player object :
//Place player object
context.drawImage(playerImg, (playerX-viewX)*32,(playerY-viewY)*32, 32, 32);
I have my viewport setup:
//Set viewport pos
viewX = playerX - Math.floor(0.5 * viewWidth);
if (viewX < 0) viewX = 0;
if (viewX+viewWidth > worldWidth) viewX = worldWidth - viewWidth;
viewY = playerY - Math.floor(0.5 * viewHeight);
if (viewY < 0) viewY = 0;
if (viewY+viewHeight > worldHeight) viewY = worldHeight - viewHeight;
I have my player movement:
canvas.addEventListener('keydown', function(e) {
console.log(e);
var key = null;
switch (e.which) {
case 37:
// Left
if (playerY > 0) playerY--;
break;
case 38:
// Up
if (playerX > 0) playerX--;
break;
case 39:
// Right
if (playerY < worldWidth) playerY++;
break;
case 40:
// Down
if (playerX < worldHeight) playerX++;
break;
}
My Problem:
I have my map loading an it looks fine, but my player position thinks it's on a different tile to what it actually is.
So for instance, i know that if my player moves left 1 tile, the value of that tile should be 2, but if i print out the value it should be moving to (2), it comes up with a different value.
How ive tried to solve the problem:
I have tried swap X and Y values for the initialization of my player, for when my map prints.
If i swap the x and y values in this part of my code:
context.drawImage(mapTiles[board[y+viewY][x+viewX]],x*width, y*height);
The map doesnt get draw correctly at all and tiles are placed all in random positions or orientations
IF i sway the x and y values for my player in this line :
context.drawImage(playerImg, (playerX-viewX)*32,(playerY-viewY)*32, 32, 32);
The players movements are inversed, so up and down keys move my player left and right viceversa.
My question:
Where am i going wrong in my code, and how do i solve it so i have my map looking like it should and my player moving as it should as well as my player returning the correct tileID it is standing on or moving too.
Thanks Again
