1: if mouseclick()=1 then position sprite x,mousex(),mousey()

2: Postion sprite x,screen width()/2, screen height()/2

3: No Just use thebasics oc the mouseclick stuff to position your sprites. Shouldnt be too too hard.

Cheers

Go ahead - good luck learning anything copying code....

That will work for 640*480 - but it is MUCH better to use screen width and screen heighth because it will still be accurate for changing resolutions.

Please try to refrain from posting in ALL CAPS. It is very rude.

Are you sure you want it to be 2D...I really think it would be easier 3D. Anyways, if you have AIM my screenname is flyinmonkeyc, there we could get things through a little easier.

Ah 2D would be pretty easy! Have a set section of loaded images for tiles, set it up so if you click one, currenttexture#=(texture number) and if you click, you find a grid square that you are on, and put a texture the size of the grid square there

Yes I really want it to be 2D. That is because it is more easy to program and it also looks great (I think it does).

RPGamer could you explain it a bit more?

OK, you have a set of textures off to the side (or in a 'media' gosub) You set up a bunch of if mouseclicks and mousex() blah blah blah. So, if you click on a texture, then you can say 'thistexture=1.

Then, back in the editor, you can use an array to set up a bunch of grid squares. When you click, you have the computer find out what grid square you are in (array data) then you put the current texture you have selected onto that tile.
