Hey guys,

I've now got a box and circle on screen, they respond correctly to input, but they keep travelling off screen.

I added some code and now the circle stops when it gets to the top of the screen but still disappears(sp?) at the bottom.



See the source for the full code.

Cheers in advance.

Simple really, you have just confused yourself by swapping x and y.

You have

Dy#=640.0
Dx#=480.0

Width dx# should be 640 and height dy# should be 480

Remember when drawing, x is left to right starting at 0 and y is top to bottom starting at 0.

Change all your variables to make sure that x and y are right way round

Cheers, I think that makes sense.

I'm going to go through and change everything.

While we're on the subject does anyone have some tips for detecting collisions between the circle and box?
