  1. In Topic: XNA C#: How to use ScreenWidth in other classes?

    This brings up another question - what is the difference between setting the viewport width and height and setting the backbuffer width and height?

    I set my game dimensions like so -

    
public static int ScreenWidth = 1280;
public static int ScreenHeight = 720;

protected override void Initialize()
        {            
            graphics.PreferredBackBufferWidth = ScreenWidth;
            graphics.PreferredBackBufferHeight = ScreenHeight;
            graphics.ApplyChanges();

            base.Initialize();
        }



    I like that idea more to be honest..

    I also now get it that if I want to use the screenwidth in other classes, I need to declare them public static ... But why is the static so important there? Shouldnt public itself let me declare stuff from other classes?

    I just kinda solved it with giving my Ball class constructor extra 2 arguments. Int newScreenWidth and int newScreenHeight . That seems a bit odd way of handling it tho it works... but what would be the correct way?

    Cant thank you enough for answering. Definitely got more understanding. I have NO idea how i managed to skip http://rbwhitaker.wikidot.com .. I guess the page just looked so bad that I didn't think anything of it... now im thinking its a really good place to find answers to all of my other questions.
