yes, that is what they are used for, basically the coordinate of the tile hat will be drawn in the top right (if you know what I mean)

i don't completely follow... mainly because you said the coordinate of the tile that will be drawn in the top right. isn't the coordinate of the tile drawn in the top right *always* (0,80)?

edit: at least for 16x16 tiles.

oops. i've been thinking that you mean the coordinate of where the tile will be drawn on the screen. you mean the coordinate in the tilemap. ok, back to analyzing.

one last question. is this being coded in SourceCoder? if not, then change
Code: [Select]
sub(DSP,I*16,J*16,{Y+J*30+X+I+{L1}}*64+{L2}
to
Code: [Select]
sub(DSP,I*16,J*16,{Y+J*30+X+I+L1}*64+L2

otherwise, what IS displaying on your screen with your original routine?

Nah.. I tried what you siad, but it didn't work.  the appvar pointers are stored at the value pointed to by these areas, so It will always draw random crap

Before it displayed radom sprites (all of them different, and usually very dark with their colors being mostly black or gray) that changed each time I compiled the source (but the appvars always stayed in the same position

It's being done on-calc no source coder

alright. well the {L1} is a value between 0-255. the {L1}r is a value between 0-65535. a pointer to an appvar is a value between 0-65535. so, when you get the pointer to the appvar, do you use this code
Code: [Select]
GetCalc("appvAPPVAR")->{L1}
or this code:
Code: [Select]
GetCalc("appvAPPVAR")->{L1}^r //supposed to be a superscript r

the latter is what you want. and also:
sub(DSP,I*16,J*16,{Y+J*30+X+I+{L1}r}*64+{L2}r

edit: [2nd][apps] for the superscript r by the way.

it's mostly fixed now :D

it displays the correct pattern of sprites, just the wrong sprites.

I think I'll be fine from here on, and can figure out the rest -- thanks so much nemo! :D :D :D :D :D

oh, and by the way, don't store anything to {L1+1} or {L2+1} when using the routine, or you'll overwrite the pointer to the appvar and you'll get some nice 4-level grayscale RAM displayed on your screen  ;)
