ok... i set table made of an array 8 by 6 how do i draw the little circles for the coin pieces in the game? the screen is 800x600. how do i noe where to put the centre of the circle and where the edges of the block are?

well pick a size for your circle... say 100 pixels. This means that each center is located at arrayLocation * 100

and your radius would be 50, so that circles just touch each other.

ok... tony it doesn't work...well it doesn't work properly...see the whole table of circles are shifted and there is an empty row and column along the bottom

well if whole field is shifted, why not just move all the pieces back in opposite direction to match original position?

arrayLocation * 100 +100

that would shift everything to the right by 100 pixels
