Problem With Changing Map Size

[doomteam1]

I've change the map size correctly, on both the client and the server. I've deleted all maps and changed the size of PicScreen. However now it doesn't get the mousex and mousey correctly. What i mean is while moving the the bottom of the screen or to the right the actual place where it says the mouse is and where the mouse actually is becomes separated.

So i was wondering if i missed a place on changing the map size. Or if i have to change anything else.

You need to change the MapX and MapY constant values in both the client and server to the amount of tiles shown at any given time.

[doomteam1]

i have already done so.

I have also changed the picScreen size to match

I had this problem a while ago, if you havent got an answer when I get home from uni I will see if I managed to fix it.

ok thx, i honestly can't see whats wrong ive checked everything in the coding, ive looked to see what handles it and can't find anything.

Go into the form editor and tell me what the scaleheight and scalewidth are for picScreen. I think that is what affected it for me but I am not 100% sure. And just to be sure, you do have the constants set like this:

actual pixels of map - (x)400 x (y) 600
MAX_MAPX = 12
MAX_MAPY = 18
(as an example, mapx and mapy have to be the actual size - 1 divided by 32.

[doomteam1]

600x 800y
Mapx = 20
mapy = 25

[iSKweek]

Change mapx to 18

[doomteam1]

don't fix it

Ok, i fixed it, but
i still am habng some sort of an alignment error, i moved my hotbar, but now the place where i have my mouse and the place where it says its at increases as i go right on the hot bar

I made a video showing what is wrong, just incase i wasn't explaining it right.

[doomteam1]

so, anyone got a clue on why its doing it

Wow, weird.
Hmm, try this:
screen: 608x 800y
Mapx = 18
mapy = 24

[doomteam1]

tried it, it does the same thing, has anyone else ever tried to change the map size and this error come up?

[Alatar]

I have really no idea :/
It happens only on your computer? Have you tried with another one?

[doomteam1]

yes i've tried with 4 differnt computers, 2 mine, 2 from people in other countries.

It has to do with this
```
            x = x + picHotbar.Left + 1
```
in this sub

```
Private Sub picHotbar_MouseMove(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, x As Single, y As Single)
Dim SlotNum As Long

    ' If debug mode, handle error then exit out
    If Options.Debug = 1 Then On Error GoTo errorhandler

    SlotNum = IsHotbarSlot(x, y)

    If SlotNum <> 0 Then
        If Hotbar(SlotNum).sType = 1 Then ' item
            x = x + picHotbar.Left + 1
            y = y + picHotbar.top - picItemDesc.height - 1
            UpdateDescWindow Hotbar(SlotNum).Slot, x, y
            LastItemDesc = Hotbar(SlotNum).Slot ' set it so you don't re-set values
            Exit Sub
        ElseIf Hotbar(SlotNum).sType = 2 Then ' spell
            x = x + picHotbar.Left + 1
            y = y + picHotbar.top - picSpellDesc.height - 1
            UpdateSpellWindow Hotbar(SlotNum).Slot, x, y
            LastSpellDesc = Hotbar(SlotNum).Slot  ' set it so you don't re-set values
            Exit Sub
        End If
    End If

    picItemDesc.Visible = False
    LastItemDesc = 0 ' no item was last loaded
    picSpellDesc.Visible = False
    LastSpellDesc = 0 ' no spell was last loaded

    ' Error handler
    Exit Sub
errorhandler:
    HandleError "picHotbar_MouseMove", "frmMain", Err.Number, Err.Description, Err.Source, Err.HelpContext
    Err.Clear
    Exit Sub
End Sub
