Ok, so my tiles are 32 x 32 pixels and when i click they appear at the mouse coordinates...but i want them to appear evenly spaced

how would i make DBpro round up (or down) to the nearest multiple of 32 depending on the mouse coords?

there's some mathematical method isnt there

You could do something like :



As for why you click on the button twice - its Microsofts fault - Bill Gates wants to take over your life.

You could do it like that, but sadly it won't work You want it to be sort of "locked" to a grid, right? In which case try this:

x=mousex()/32*32
y=mousey()/32*32

This will make sure you only paste every 32 pixels in X and Y.

Cheers,
