We know that the screen in Wick behaves like a small grid. With that data, we can divide the screen into quadrants of 16, 32 or 64 pixels (tiles).

Then, we can take individual objects of the same size as the quadrant, and put them where we want.

Example:

NOTE: This system show-cased here is not great. If placed on the frame, it’ll fail to place blocks where there is a block above, and in the block it’ll not work completely.

It also doesn’t feature a system to remove blocks, and changing blocks is also broken.

var gridSize = 16;

function makeShowBlock() {
    var showBlock = block_base.clone();
    showBlock.opacity = 0.5;
    return showBlock;
}

var showBlock = makeShowBlock();

onEvent('update', function () {
  showBlock.x = Math.floor(mouseX/gridSize) * gridSize;
  showBlock.y = Math.floor(mouseY/gridSize) * gridSize;
});

onEvent('mouseclick', function() {
    showBlock.opacity = 1;
    console.log(`Placing Block #${block_base.clones.indexOf(showBlock) + 1} at x:${showBlock.x} y:${showBlock.y} mouseX:${mouseX} mouseY:${mouseY}`);
    showBlock = makeShowBlock();
});

onEvent('keydown', function() {
    if(isKeyDown('space')) showBlock.gotoNextFrame();
});

If you want to make your own system, while thinking that the block’s pivot is centered, use this to align it.

var gridSize = 32;
showBlock.x = Math.floor(mouseX/gridSize) * gridSize;
showBlock.y = Math.floor(mouseY/gridSize) * gridSize;

I just gave you the math. Code your own based on this:

#16

well the reason your guy is getting yetted out of the map area or floor is because of a incorrect collision box setup
