Screen side coordinates

Games
#1

How do I find right side coordinates?
I want to hero stop if he is near screen end so hero doesn’t go from screen.

There are some alternatives in display.*
display.contentWidth,
display.pixelHeight or display.pixelWidth depending on the orientation.
Also, haven’t used those yet but display.getSafeAreaInsets(), display.viewableContentWidth and display.safeActualContentWidth should also work depending on your use case.

Hi @ConveyedRex7592,

I use these

screen.lua

local M = {
	DECLARED_SCREEN_WIDTH = display.contentWidth,
	DECLARED_SCREEN_WIDTH = display.contentHeight,
	TOTAL_SCREEN_WIDTH	  = display.actualContentWidth,
	TOTAL_SCREEN_HEIGHT   = display.actualContentHeight,
	CENTER_X 		      = display.contentCenterX,
	CENTER_Y		      = display.contentCenterY,
	UNUSED_WIDTH	      = display.actualContentWidth - display.contentWidth,
	UNUSED_HEIGHT	      = display.actualContentHeight - display.contentHeight,
	LEFT		          = display.contentCenterX - display.actualContentWidth * 0.5,
	TOP	                  = display.contentCenterY - display.actualContentHeight * 0.5,
	RIGHT 		          = display.contentCenterX + display.actualContentWidth * 0.5,
	BOTTOM 		          = display.contentCenterY + display.actualContentHeight * 0.5,
}

return M

Have a nice day:)
