You can use a function like this one I made, add it by clicking "Scripts" in the main menu, clicking global code, pasting it in, giving it a title, and adding it.

Code: Select all

int lockToGrid(int val, int delimiter)
{
    return round(val/delimiter)*delimiter;
} // This function will return the nearest multiple of the delimiter to your value.

Use it by going to whatever actor you need to lock down as you say, adding an event with a script editor action and putting in something like this:

Code: Select all

x = lockToGrid(x, 10); // The current actors X value will now round to the nearest 10th pixel.

x = lockToGrid(x, 10); // The current actors X value will now round to the nearest 10th pixel.

^^^ i'm not sure exactly how to express that in a keypress function ... or a mouse button press... hmmm
