Device Touch X and Y Limited to area? Bit of help pls..

hrsmedia

I am trying to use Game.Touches.X and Y to move my actor but my actor doesn't move outside of 480x320 area? It's like there is an invisible wall there?
Are touch1.X and Y etc. limited to certain area?

I just tried move to mouse.position.X, Y instead of touch1.X, Y and it does the same thing. I've tried move to and interpolate.

Well just looking back at that project and it's not actually working properly. Can anyone take a quick look? I'm not sure if I've done it properly. Thanks

Anyone take a look? Sorry to bump, but I think it should be a simple solution.. Thanks again.

Because Move To is a continuous behavior, since you use the camera offset that is continually changing, the value of the move to X and Y are updating the target position. If you store the target X and Y when you receive a mouse down event, and use those values in your move to, then it will stop accordingly.

Thanks for the explanation CodeMonkey. I think I've solved it now.
