Using this code, I can cause a 2d sprite to 'stick' to a grid (with tiles of 32*32 pixels)



However, when I try to transfer this into 3d, using the following code, the same does not occur.



How can I cause my 3d objects to 'stick' to a grid as the player moves the camera about freely?

Screw the rules...what can i blow up?

i think its because with the mouse it does it in segments, not pixels...not sure though

camera position x() returns a 'float' whereas mousex() returns an integer.

So the trick is stick int() around camera position:

position object 1,int(camera position x())/10*10,0,int(camera position z())/10*10

Boo!
