[color=#444444][font=verdana, geneva, lucida,]My game is a online rpg with pixel based movement. The world is composed of isometric blocks. ~
I need a formula for finding the clients starting xOffset and yOffset for the camera. For a tile based movement engine the offsets can always start at 0 because you will always be in the center of a tile. For me however the player can be anywhere on that tile. It is probably a simple solution I am just terrible at math logic. Here is some details:
Block width = 88
Block height = 44
The client has a chunk of the world loaded at a time[/font]
[color=#444444][font=verdana, geneva, lucida,]an area is 6600x3300 pixels
offset ranges would be:
xOffset would be from -44 to 43
yOffset would be from -22 to 21[/font]
