So yeah… The problems I have keep getting worse. Most bugs I know how to fix, and probably will, but I’ve postponed them all due to one crazy problem.

Trying to push any card other than the ones in the center does not work. I do not know why and I have tried several things, but I don’t think there’s anything I know how to do in order to fix it.

Link is on TurboWarp here because they haven’t patched unshared projects yet. Please help.

Also, please ignore any bugs other than the one I want to fix. I can do all the others, but right now I just need this one fixed.

Bump

Still need help with this?

Yes. Thanks.

I don't have time to properly analyse your project today but I will ask, what happens when you try to push a card not in the center? Are there multiple ways it can go wrong or is it the same kind of error no matter what?

usually, it just replaces the card.

I thought this was a puzzle game, but actually it is a horror game



I'll cut to the chase. This is the coordinates you use to *check* the validity of a push:


And here's the coordinates you use to actually *do* the push:


As you can probably guess the reason why pushes work only at the center is because that is where the two methods of calculating the coordinates give the same result

Oh, thank you. I understand now, when I get home I can probably fix that. Thank you!

Actually, the coordinates used to do the push are these:

bump

I'll use that bump to add that this project would greatly benefit from the use of the mod operator.

The coordinates that you posted are the same as mine, I just cropped mine to make it easier to tell the critical difference.

To make it clear, when you push cards the coordinates you use are 3x the magnitude they should be.

That’s true. I’ll see what I can do.

*stares intensely at code*
*confusion slowly increases*

Just a question, how does your ‘geni’ variable work/what is its function? I don't understand your code all that well but I suspect the problem is not with the movement, it's with the validation process being too closely aligned to a center push and returning an invalid value for a push that isn't in the center, causing all the cards to just yeet off to the side for some reason..

Actually, if it's not too much trouble could you please briefly explain the steps for pushing a card? (like pseudocode)
