Tiles world position

by Bruno · in Torque Game Builder · 01/13/2006 (1:04 pm) · 5 replies

Hi
Is there a way to know the tile position in the entire layer, instead of knowing the position in the screen ?
Instead of getting a local position in screen like (30,20) if it is possible to get the world layer position of that tile, like (1020, 340) ??
thanks

Do you want to post what you did, so someone else who has a similar question in the future knows?

Yeah sure,

I just placed a dummy tile where i wanted it to be, then when he gets on screen instead of getting the position of the tile, i get the position of the layer..
When i want to go back to that tile position, i just translate the layer to the position i got before, with some offset to compensate minor diferences.
