Question by Adoulrasheed · Oct 14, 2015 at 03:58 PM · positionscreensize

Position in different screen sizes

Hi everybody. In my game a have a 2D block which moves forward and backward horizontally. When the 2D block reach the edge of the screen it change it direction and move to the other side and vice versa.

     if (transform.position.x >= 27.3) 
     {
         speed = speed * -1;
     }
     if (transform.position.x; <= -6.99) 
     {
         speed = speed * -1;
     }                                                                                                  GetComponent<Rigidbody2D> ().velocity = new Vector2 (speed, GetComponent<Rigidbody2D> ().velocity.y);

Now the problem is that not all mobiles have the same screen size so in some cases the block might go outside of the screen then change it direction and in other cases the block might change it direction before it reach the edge of the screen. So what can i do to solve this problem

Thanks

You can use the Screen class to get information about the screen dimensions.

The Screen class has properties called width and height that return the current width and height of the screen. Those can be used to detect when your object is at the edge of the screen.

so you are saying that i should use an if statement that specify the location i want for each different scree resolution.
