Disclaimer - not drawn to scale

:P

You'll see that if you just draw using mouse state, the position ends up way outside your camera (green)

If you add your camera position (assume top left corner for position), you should end up inside your camera accordingly (orange)

haha, that is not my problem, because the mouse still is in the right place, but think about it like this, if i don't move the camera then it all works, because what is draw on the screen is i think 16 by 9, but if i were to shift it by even one f 1f when trying to move the mouse to what would be -1 x, it just stops at 0 x, but if i were to be in windowed mode that problem just does not exist

This bit isn't making sense to me

but if i were to shift it by even one f 1f when trying to move the mouse to what would be -1 x, it just stops at 0 x, but if i were to be in windowed mode that problem just does not exist

If your camera is at -100, 0 then your mouse gets stuck at 0,0?

when the program/game first starts the top left is 0,0 be it in window or full screen, that is basic every single program logic. Now if i were to hit the A key the camera would shift, and this little basic sprite that i have would move past 0 on the x axis as well. But if i want to shift the mouse over it will stop at the 0, Whatever y it was at,

but this problem only happens if IsFullScreen is true. If it is a window game, where it would still start at 0,0 in the left top hand corner and i shift with the A key i am able to move into the -x axis

This sounds like the issue you are describing... just using negative numbers instead of positive

err

with the solution I was describing

your camera is in a negative X position but your mouse stops at 0

because Mouse State uses screen coordinates, not world coordinates (at least I'm pretty sure of this fact)

I wonder if it works in windowed mode because your mouse can actually leave the window, allowing your mouse position to be negative

Did you try adding the camera position to the mouse state position for drawing your cursor? What happened?

Whats the trouble? Camera not available in that method?

because i am trying to get the cursor to move with the camera, and so i have mouse_pos.x+camera_x_move and camera_x_move is ++, or -- depending if the player has the A or D key down, and this is down right above the deceleration of the mouses movement line, and after the .GetState call. and it literly will only shift one pixel as long as the key is down

Never mind fixed that, just had to not 0 the number

Ok

I was gonna say though, shouldn't it just be camera_x and not camera_x_move?

OK OK, thank you i fixed it, i guess i was just being stupid and not reading what you were telling me correct, but THANK YOU THANK YOU THANKYOU

LoL mac client is nice. minor issues, but works quite well

@Almo No more dependency on using Internet Explorer in the background, to render embedded Youtube videos?

no idea

:)

I have literally zero motivation to get anything done. It's Friday, I'm hung over, and the only thing I have to work on is planning out some new AJAX functionality, which I'm not familiar with, and don't really know how to do.

getting laid off monday hurt my motivation

but I'm still getting some stuff done

@Almo o_o

@TuckerMorgan NP! If my answer was really what solved your issue then please upvote / mark as answer. Have fun programming!

I've been laid off so many times, it doesn't freak me out anymore. Not sure if that's a good or bad thing.

I would not be well off financially if I got laid off.... I hate student loans

@ToddersLegrande Nondeterministic in Polynomial Time?

@ToddersLegrande Likewise, my friend.

@Almo That's probably a bad thing...
