determineDirection() Function Reference

determineDirection(integer xFrom, integer yFrom, integer xTo, integer yTo)

Determines the direction between two tiles from their raw tile position. E.g x10,y10 is north of x11,y11 and north-east of x10,y11


	local qiso = require "plugin.qisoengine"
	qiso.setAssetsFolder("assets")
	qiso.loadTiledMap("sample-tilemap")

	-- Enable the main Qiso loop to render/update our world
	qiso.activate()

	-- Get the direction of the tapped tile relative to tile 5,5
	function tapTile(event)
		-- Get the tile located where the screen was tapped. If there is no tile here, getTile returns nil.
		local tile = qiso.getTile(event.x, event.y)

		if(tile ~= nil) then
			print tile.x .. "," .. tile.y .. " is " .. determineDirection(5, 5, tile.x, tile.y) .. " of 5,5"
		end
	end

	-- Do something when the screen is tapped
	Runtime:addEventListener('tap', tapTile)
