This is my code

C#

if (Death.Location == new Point(Death.Location.X <= 30, Death.Location.Y))
           {
               Death.Location = new Point(Death.Location.X - movement, Death.Location.Y);
           }

these are my errors

VB

Solution 2

This is because Death.Location.X <= 30 is boolean, but you need integer.
It does not seem you understand what do you want. You compare Death.Location with Death.Location and then assign Death.Location…

This is meaningless but anyway, if OP wants to keep his "if" structure he can use something like this:
if (Death.Location == new Point((Death.Location.X <= 30)? NewValue : Death.Location.X, Death.Location.Y))
{
Death.Location = new Point(Death.Location.X - movement, Death.Location.Y);
}

But SA is right it seems like OP is a little bit confused with his idea. My 5

Thank you, Timur,
You see, I think I tried to answer one question of OP long time ago. This is some game, object moves throw screen, with spherical topology: go out on right -- appears on left. This damn 30 -- width of it (always hard-coded!). And many-many questions on that motion... same mistakes of the same sort: how to read and assign current position. Now, can you imagine what happens with threading, invocation, rendering and control, is coordinate update is where you see it..?

Sounds like nightmare actually...I think that my only advice in that case would be - figure it out on paper first :)

Sergey Alexandrovich Kryukov 10-Mar-11 17:33pm

Well... Not the first one here...

It seems like the "NewValue" in the code has no purpose I can make massive like 9999999999 and no change

Sergey Alexandrovich Kryukov 12-Mar-11 17:27pm

This is you work. How come you're not sure what has no purpose and create if in first place.
What would be the purpose of these '99..'? Let me tell you, if you seriously thinking about using some hard-coded constants like that, all your programming activity is useless...
Sorry,

He might need to turn on his experience sharing option in his VS IDE. So that microsoft knows that customers are in need of a new syntax. My 5 for correcting the present error.

Sergey Alexandrovich Kryukov 10-Mar-11 10:34am

Well, thank you.
See my comment above. This is a problem.
