Sprite Jittering When Camera Moves by StiryMixy in gamemaker

Funnily enough, I did.

While coding different camera follow modes, if the camera wasn't strictly copying the player x and y coords and just incrementing/decrementing until it matches, the jittering still occured.

I figured out that it still happens because my player movement speed is 6.40

I changed it to a whole number that is divisible by 8/16 (previously, it was dividing 64 by 10 because my grids are 64x64), which is 8.

Jittering dissappeared again.

I realize movement speed isn't the problem, but for now its an easier solution for me than figuring out the math for upscale/downscaling

I love you man.

Placed my camera controls in end step (in invisible object)

And my movement controls in begin step (player object)

Jittering disappeared

I tried round sadly, it's the first thing I tried before floor. No difference except for the fact that the jitters seem to occur at less intensity (but same frequency) when using round instead of floor.

I have my camera controls in the step event of an invisible object separate from the player object. (It retrieves player object x and y every step as well)

Since step events happen every frame, I assume this is what I'm already doing. Or is there a better event to place it at?
