I have to scale an 800+600 screen to 512*384...

What is the percent of 512 into 800, and 384 into 600?

I can't quite get my collision perfect when using sprites using screen coords on top of objects that are 24*30 pixels, but the pixels are 24*30 on an 800*600 screen, and I haven't a clue what they have scaled down to.

Thanks.

Pincho.

512 is %64 of 800
384 is %64 of 600

Yeah, I don't know how to do percentages, I have forgotten.

So what's 64% of 24, and 64% of 30?

Thanks again!!

Pincho.

And to get the %age: 512/800*100

Besides, why don't you use screen width() and simple maths?
