Local to Global

[cbk1994]

I need to take an X and convert it to the X on the screen. This doesn't work ...

temp.co = GraalControl.localtoglobalcoord( { this.x - 3.5, this.y - 2.7 } );

it doesn't convert it to global. It just keeps the numbers the same.

Help please

[Chompy]

and what is this.x and this.y?

[cbk1994]

It's a level NPC, this.x and this.y work fine. I just need this.x to magically be the screenx for that x.

[Chompy]

but localtoglobalcoord() is for GuiControls..

Oh, I see what you're saying. I was thinking it was for converting the level x and y to global.

Okay, well are there any ways to do this?

If I understand, You want to change the level coordinates to screen coordinates. To do this:

PHP Code:

screenx(x, y)
screeny(x, y) 


They will return the screen position at (x, y).

Or you can just multiply by 16. (I think)

Nah, that wouldn't work because it needs to translate the x/y of it with consideration for the camera coordinates and such.
