I've been working on a tile based platformer and while I've finally got the tiles working, I went in to work on the sprite jumping and landing on the tiles. The problem is that when the sprite lands, the oldy position causes it to float in the air at different positions everytime. Can someone please show me how to make it land on top of the tiles everytime instead of either inside it or above it?

I'm using DBpro and I included my code and one of the bitmaps. You'll have to download the other on this next post!

I don't have pro, so I can't amend your code, but I think I can see what is wrong.

When your player collides with a tile you set him back to his previous position. But that position is different each time you jump because you can jump different heights. You need to set it to put him back to a position at the edge of the tile. That way he will always 'land' on the ground.

Hope that helps.
