If I write a code for some resolution eg. 1024x768, and a player choose some other resolution, my code won`t work any more cos many aspects like positions and distances will be distorted. Is there any solution in GS or I must write a whole script to handle this? Is there a way to make a code which will work regardless from chosen resolutions and what could be the simplest way? I apologize if this has already been asked, I have not found it. Last edited by Enix; 02/23/12 09:14.

For example, this will put your panel always at 50 pixels from the screen bottom and 30 pixels from the right side. Code: PANEL *my_panel= { ... } ... while(1) { my_panel.pos_x=screen_size.x-my_panel.size_x-30; my_panel.pos_y=screen_size.y-my_panel.size_y-50; wait(1); } 3D Gamestudio A8 Pro AMD FX 8350 4.00 Ghz 16GB RAM Gigabyte GeForce GTX 960 4GB

Or both of it. edit:// painkiller was faster, I meant a script like his. Last edited by lemming; 02/23/12 11:01.

I thought maybe there was some pre-made script which unites pixels and quants in a whole what would be the most elegant solution to control coordinates. But this will do also. Thanks. Can I ask one more thing: It seems there is a lost workshop in Online Tutorial. You see, at the end of workshop21 there is a link "Next: Walking, collision, events", but it leads only to workshop22 - Local Variables. Whether the "Lost Chapter" can be found somewhere? I could use some more informations about the topics, especially collisions.
