Warps just take me to screen 0,0

[terminalsyzygy]

Bit of an odd issue here because I wasn't having it before. I got a warp on screen 0,1 and in the "warp out" section of the screen info, I set it to warp to screen 1,1. But it just takes me to screen 0,0 instead.

I've set the warp in locations on each screen, tried restarting in case it was a glitch, made other warps etc, they all go to screen 0,0 no matter what.

Do you have a Warp In Location set on screen 1-1? If you don't, the player sprite will warp right on the edge, which usually causes another warp.

Yep, I do.

What module are you using? If its a scrolling one it always uses the first screens information.

I'm using the adventure game module.

Make sure you set the "Warp out x, y coords" and "Warp in x, y coords" correctly:
Let's say you have a warp tile on your screen A and wants to warp in the screen B.
- On the screen A, set the warp out x,y coords of the screen B.
- On the screen B, set the warp in x,y coords where you want your player to appear (you can also set those coords by doing a right click at the exact spot you want and chose "set warp in coords")
Now if you test, when your player will touch the warp tile from the screen A, he will be warped out to the screen B, at the location you set.

That seems to be exactly what I've been doing, made sure the coordinates are right on my warp out info and made sure every screen has a warp in location. No change still.

Warning, if your screen is part a scrolling segment (of scrolling screens), you need to set your warp out x, y coords on the first screen of that scrolling segment.
(because for scrolling screens, almost all the informations are loaded only from the 1st screen, as explained in the tutorial videos)

Which tutorial should I go back and watch for this part? I seem to be encountering this myself and followed the steps you provided. Working on a 4_5_9 platformer, so I imagine I’m having an issue related to scrolling g as well.

If you work on a scrolling platformer project and want to use warp tiles...
I would suggest to watch the Maze tutorials and/or the Metroidvania tutorial (in this tutorial, Joe explains about the warps... and the metroivania uses scrolling).
