HOW IT WORKS:
It uses a canvas, set the canvas to your color, then use the command "SetLight(x, y, width, height);"

But because of an unknown bug, when setting the y, make sure you set +half of height, like this:

Code: Select all

SetLight(xmouse, ymouse+32, 64, 64);


Otherwise, your light is gonna end up above the Y position you told it to.

I wouldn't use a canvas to make circles (at least how I think you are going about it). To do that you need to use putpixel, and it is slow. Nothing realtime about it. Anyway, take a look at the new ged (note you made it rather hard to use with the + and - adjustments based off of width). Also, just to teach you something, you were wasting a lot of loops doing the lineto method. The pen (from setpen) is a square. So you set its width or height, and just put the pixel at the position X, Y.

I make the circle decently for flashlight and add sequence.
Do u allow me to add the lighting into the one of my games hblade?

wow- i new canvas would be the best way to that but its scary how little code there was in doing it- i figured drawing shapes at point of origin to 'cut out the dark' would take some kind of 'draw all black in canvas except shapes here etc or having the shapes erase those spots but the canvas would have to be told to redraw etc'. anyway i copy and paste the mousex line and adjusted the dimensions of that, and the original so i get two rectangles- one tall, one wide, so i get a ''cross'' shape! add two more slightly shorter/wider rectangles plus a square and i get a crude circle light (i been asking about how to) but i guess you could probably draw a perfect circle in on line.
