I have a tilemap(15x15 tiles) made of 16x16pixel tiles and a player which is circle-shaped (8pixel radius). The player has 'free-movement' (can touch more than one tile at a time). How can I find the tiles the player is over? (btw, I dont want to use a bounding-box) Lasse Hassing -------------------------------------------------------------- Erh?

Get the center of the player. Do a bounding box to find the tiles they might be on. Do a distance calc for each tile corner. If the dist is >= 4 he is on that tile.

So I guess I do want to use a bounding box anyway,
Thanks!!!
