Crashed, SpriteSurface, Map & going insane

[Eric <cire- at prodigy dot net>]

Well I'm having a small problem you could say...
When trying to get the tiles to display Rb crashes hard, locking
up my Mac...

No doubt its something I'm doing wrong.....

Ok the info:
Tile sizes 64 x 64
Map: 17 tiles across - 0 - 17 (18 total)
            7 tiles down 0 -7( 8 total)

I save the map's in layers 5 in all. Same size.
there are saved in a binary file. This is what
is in  layer 1 - display dumped by my map maker.

08, 11,10 = clouds 01 = sky 00 = nothing (white picture) where ground
and other stuff would be in other layers.
Note   the O's were added just for the dump display.

********************** Layer: 1 *************************

 08 01 01 01 01 01 08 08 08 01 01 08 08 01 01 08 11 10
 11 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01
 08 01 08 01 01 01 08 08 01 01 01 01 08 01 08 01 08 10
 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01
 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01
 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01 01
 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00


Ok now in the game I'm trying to make, I though
I would set  up each Map layer the number of tiles
across and down and place the map data in.

*the map is set to map(7,17)
Game_Map_Layers(LN).Insert_Tile_ID(readfrom.readShort,c,r)

Well that caused Rb to crash and my Mac. So I tried (8,18) still
crashed.
I've tried flipping them around (18,8) no good.
I tried Game_Map_Layers(LN).Insert_Tile_ID(readfrom.readShort,r,c) no
good.

So I tried map(100,100) that worked.....

This is what is in the Paint Tile event -
  g.drawPicture
Tiles(game_Map_Layers(1).Get_Tile_ID(xpos+1,ypos+1)).Get_TileImage,0,0
  g.drawPicture
Tiles(game_Map_Layers(2).Get_Tile_ID(xpos+1,ypos+1)).Get_TileImage,0,0
  g.drawPicture
Tiles(game_Map_Layers(3).Get_Tile_ID(xpos+1,ypos+1)).Get_TileImage,0,0
  g.drawPicture
Tiles(game_Map_Layers(4).Get_Tile_ID(xpos+1,ypos+1)).Get_TileImage,0,0
  g.drawPicture
Tiles(game_Map_Layers(5).Get_Tile_ID(xpos+1,ypos+1)).Get_TileImage,0,0

Now when it does draw them, the first two rows of  in layer 1 are, I
think, over drawn.
There just not there.

I'm not sure what I have done wrong. Its driving me insane!

Thanks

eric
