NXC code help!!!!!

[nxtboyiii]

Hi

I am trying to figure out how to make a platformer game for nxt with nxc using tiles without the character moving tile by tile.
The Knight game I made moves smoothly tile by tile, so if you press the left button your character moves left 1 tile. I want to make it so the character moves left 1 pixel, not 16(The tile size).

Shouldn't this be in one a thread in NXT Software?!!!!!

[nxtboyiii]

Yeah, I guess(I'm afraid Mightor will take it off).

[nxtboyiii]

Anyone interested?
I really need help.

btw, heres the code I have now which moves tile by tile:

You can draw an RIC sprite at any X,Y position. If you know how to draw it at positions that are multiples of 16 then you know how to do it at positions that are multiples of 1. Just don't increment your position by 16. If you are using a complex RIC to draw the entire screen in one GraphicOutEx call then you may need two instead - one to draw the background and another (or multiple calls) to draw the character(s) on top of the background.

It is best to post simple code that is close to what you want and ask for help to make it do more closely what you want. I don't have time to plow through a thousand line program so KISS.

here is the basic code:

if you want the working version, download it from the website I mentioned earlier

That's too much code for me to sort through. I would try fiddling around with some of those 16s to start with.

What problems are you having so far?

[nxtboyiii]

The player currently moves 1 tile at a time, smoothly. I want it so it moves 1 pixel at a time, so if you press a direction it only moves 1 pixel total and not moving a tile.

~nxtboyiii: Didn't you program the game? You of all people should know how to do that.
