So do they get centered on each of the Y locations and the Y' locations or just Y14 and Y'14?

[quote=name:Impersonation]So do they get centered on each of the Y locations and the Y' locations or just Y14 and Y'14?[/quote] It depends on what I'm doing. When I'm trying to determine a unit's location I find out what row and column it's in. To find out the row, I center the big Y Location on each of the smaller Y locations checking each time to see if the unit is there. To find out the column, I just center each X location one by one on the Y14 location. The row, y14, is just an arbitrary row that I center the x locations on, it's just to get the X locations on the left or right edge. Finally, I center the long X location the small x locations to be able to check if a unit is anywhere in the entire row. When I'm trying to place something at a specific location I first look at what the Y coordinate is as well as what the X coordinate is. Based on the Y coordinate I center location "loc" on one of the smaller Y locations. Based on the X coordinate I know whether to center it on the small left Y or the small right Y, because there are two small Y locations, but they're on opposite sides of the map. Centering loc on one of those Y locations isolates the position of the Y coordinate I'm trying to place a unit at. Then I take whatever X location is necessary based on the X coordinate, and I center it on "loc". That gives me the proper x coordinate along the row that loc is in. Finally, I just center a small location (I think it's loc reused) on that X location, which just represents one grid square and it gets centered in the middle of the X location.
