Tile Map issues

Hello there Ladies and gents of the internet!

I come today seeking advice so allow me to explain my situation <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_smile.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile" />

So first of all this prototype was originally done with a platform and allowed the Vine_Arms to spawn on the platform.BBoxTop which works like a charm.

However whilst transferring this project to the main game, I realised that I am using TileMaps.

Below is a screenshot showing the working (Platform version) of the prototype.

Now whilst converting the prototype to the main game, I know that I need to change 1 line of code from

Vine_Arm| Set Y to Platform.BBoxTop to something like Vine_Arm| Set Y to Tilemap.snapY(VineHeart.Y)

I know this doesn't work but I can't quite put my finger on the answer.

Below is a screenshot that showcase this.

My question is how do I get the Vine_Arm to spawn at the correct Y position on the TileMap, being the ground below the players X

Thanks for your interest

I look forward to hearing back from you <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_smile.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile" />

Take care

Chris.

based on your screenshot, it looks like snapY is positioning it to the center of the tile, so you could try adding half the tileheight to that coordinate.

Interesting, I will have a look into that Thanks
