Import spritesheet problem

Hello,

when I import a spritesheet, it doesn't work as I expected. Former sprite 0 is placed on sprite 1, sprite 1 on sprite 2 etc. Please see image.

Is this supposed to work this way? All sprites shift one, this is really inconvenient. You would expect to get an exact copy of the original spritesheet. Or am I doing something wrong?

Thanks,
Kim

This is a very basic demo of a platform game. I was struggling with slopes etc, until I had this idea. It works quite well, so I wanted to share it with you.

Whereever the player is, the program looks for the first pixel directly under it, starting from the head. It looks directly in the spritesheet. If the player is falling down, its y-value cannot get below the floor level.

This works really well for the slopes, but sometimes if you jumped and your head peeped over a platform, the player teleported to the platform above. I fixed this by checking from the player's feet, when jumping or falling.

Bye,
Kim

I'm working on my take of the great Lemmings game. Interesting to make a dynamic background based on pixels instead of tiles. Right now most mechanics are working.
