hello i solved my previous screen wrapping program in an easy way by saying that if the ship went off the screen at x=0 and y=150 then the ship x would equal x max (which is 480) so in that sense the ship would jump to that position at the default vector but what i want to do is since i am using vector based turning i want to take the angle of the turn and return the ship at the same vector which would make the turning and loop functions much clearer. the image attached will show you what i mean the red inking is the current loop function that i have and the green arrows are the loop function that i plan to write. thanks to anybody that can help me.

It will be hard to provide any assistance to you unless we can see your code. Can you post it in a code snippet?

[float Line(float X)
{

return tan(angle)*(X - Ship.x) + Ship.y;

}

if (pos[1] < 0)
{

// Slope from angle

// If Angle = PI / 2 or 3*PI / 2, S = 0

float S = tanf(fAngle);
float X = (640 + S*pos[0] - pos[1]) / S;
float Y = S(X-pos[0]) + pos[1];

pos[0] = X;
pos[1] = Y;

}

else if (pos[1] > 640)

{
float S = tanf(fAngle);
float X = (S*pos[0] - pos[1]) / S;
float Y = S(X-pos[0]) + pos[1];

pos[0] = X;
pos[1] = Y;
]

sorry if it wasn't clear
