game map borders

[Kascas]

Hey, im trying to make a very simple explore rpg game like this one

http://www.kongregate.com/games/Atel.../micro-dungeon

so far i only made my character movement
i cant seem to make/find any efficient codes that will make my character unable to walk over walls

i have tryed a couple of simple things but it does not work that efficient
there is probably a very easy way to do it, but i cant find any online

any tips? thx in advance

Post the code you wrote for the movement

So you have your map in [x][y] 'cells'. If going from one cell to the next, check if the 'to' cell has .isWall property.

function Move(x:int, y:int):boolean{
if (cells[x][y].isWall) {
    //play thud
    //display message- derp you cant walk through that
    //etc.
    return true;
}else{
    //set current location to the 'to' cell.
    return false;
}
}

I dont think that gets any simpler and efficient than that. (generally speaking) call the above when the 'arrow is clicked' or when 'a key is pressed'. It all depends how you have your cells layed out (I recommend a multi-array like the above).

Hope that helps, post code for more help.
