Hey,

so far, I can't really assist you. What did you already try?

Glancing over the problem, maybe https://fuzearena.com/help/view/centreSpriteCamera can help?

@mario-bodemann il try it tomorrow,, iv tried all sorts but dont think iv used that yet as im still learning.
bit confused on what to put in for the x . y pos

centreSpriteCamera ( xpos, ypos )

@waldron If it helps, the x and y will define the top left pixel of the camera. So if you want to center on an x and y:

spritecamera(x - gwidth()/2, y - gheight()/2)

If you want the camera to follow your Sprite then do this : centerspritecamera(player.x,player.y) that should do the trick.

Thankyou for your help this helps me massively on a number of projects

Working thankyou ! I know its something so simple but I'm only just starting to use maps instead of the level arrays and got confused
