ok for xna scrolling part 2

you set the player position to ScreenPosition = new Vector2(400, 300);

and in the tilemap the player is “4″ so even if i put 4 in a nother position on the tilemap it still goign to remain at the same spot how can i change…and also block collision

you don’t have to do the else if thing,

by putting the standard state of the player at the top like this:

speed.X = 0;
speed.Y = 0;
if(kbState.IsKeyDown(Keys.Left))
speed.X = -300 * (float)gameTime.ElapsedGameTime.TotalSeconds;
if (kbState.IsKeyDown(Keys.Right))
speed.X = 300 * (float)gameTime.ElapsedGameTime.TotalSeconds;
if (kbState.IsKeyDown(Keys.Up))
speed.Y = -300 * (float)gameTime.ElapsedGameTime.TotalSeconds;
if (kbState.IsKeyDown(Keys.Down))
speed.Y = 300 * (float)gameTime.ElapsedGameTime.TotalSeconds;

you bypass the need for the else-IF chains.

Uhm, you need to tell users to use XNA 3.0, 2.0 is pretty dated now. Just fyi.

Hi there!

I was given a school project to build a game with different levels, & the character to shoot enemies, collect items to gain points.

I found your website, followed your XNA C# tutorials and found them useful.
Could u post up tutorial for XNA Sidescroller Part 3?
Or more of the tutorials to complete the game?

If u are too busy to blog, perhaps u could send me an email with guides or steps to complete the game? bluishprawn@hotmail.com.

Need help. Thanks a lot!
