anyone?

ok i'm still having lots of trouble with my sprites being put on the map. my code is as such(i can't post pics):

for each sprite

each tick:          canvas...draw point...

                    Canvas.X +Canvas.Width*(Sprite.X/LayoutWidth)

                    Canvas.Y +Canvas.Height*(Sprite.Y/LayoutHeight)   

if anyone know what i'm doing wrong please let me know.

Rojo: the map issue, i can't get to work because i'm not sure where to put that code i have tried in various places but there is no reaction when i click the map, my ship still moves to the spot i click behind the map. even when i disable my normal movements there is no reaction. i researched the "lerp" and maybe i just don't understand it yet.

Thanks in advance :)

ok thanks i have been battleing this problem for a while now i will check out canvas and let you know what i come up with. i'll update if i figure the problem out.

and currently i'm using the pics from a website and i'm not sure if i can get into trouble for using copyrighted pics. if you know let me know lol

thanks to both replies.

anyone?

how do you get the sprites to represented on the minimap?

i am making a spaceship game, and i have a minimap working but not to the extent i want to.

problem #1:

I would like to be able to click the mini map and have the ship move to those coordinates(as in position on map relative to layout), but when i click it moves to the spot where i clicked on the screen as if the minimap wasn't there.

Problem #2:

I can get the mini map to show my ship position and 1 of the sprites but i can't get the map to show the all the randomly placed sprites on the map. i was wondering how i can plot the coordinates of all enemy sprites including the one that are spawned to replace the ones that i have destroyed.

I'm sorry i'm new to this and have been looking for the solution to these problems but to no avail if someone could send me a link or explain how i can do this it would be appreciated.
