This function can be used to copy the contents of a rectangular area of grid cells from one (previously defined) DS grid to another, or it can be used to copy a region from within the same grid. The following images illustrate both ways that this function can be used:
ds_grid_set_grid_region(index, source, x1, y1, x2, y2, xpos, ypos);
| Argument | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| index | DS Grid | The index of the destination grid. |
| source | DS Grid | The index of the source grid. |
| x1 | Real | The left position of the region of cells to copy from the source grid. |
| y1 | Real | The top position of the region of cells to copy from the source grid. |
| x2 | Real | The right position of the region of cells to copy from the source grid. |
| y2 | Real | The bottom position of the region of cells to copy from the source grid. |
| xpos | Real | The x position on the destination grid to copy the source region to. |
| ypos | Real | The y position on the destination grid to copy the source region to. |
N/A
ds_grid_set_grid_region(grid, t_grid, 0, 0, 5, 5, 10, 10)
This would copy the region of cells from (0,0) to (5,5) of the grid indexed in the variable "t_grid" and copy them to position (10,10) in the grid indexed in the variable "grid".
