Hello all, I was exploring the Snake game sample code (from the revision 10 directory of the SDK) and found that there was no touch support integrated. I have a Nexus S, so I decided for practice I would add touch control support to the project; my original idea was to put an onTouchEvent method in the SnakeView class and have the method check the coordinates of the touch against the coordinates of the snake's head to determine what direction it should turn. This didn't work because, as I found out through logging the coordinates of both the snake's head and the touch events, the snake is effectively operating on a different coordinate plane from that of the SnakeView view receiving the touch events. I can see that the snake has its own custom Coordinate nested class in SnakeView, and that the drawing called by the update methods occurs in TileView, but I don't quite see how the x and y values fed in to the Coordinate class correspond to the actual view coordinates... the default values where the snake begins, around 7,3 by the Coordinate class's reckoning, are actually around 90,40 on the view's coordinate plane. Can someone explain exactly how the Coordinate nested class's x and y values are being mapped to the view's actual coordinates and/or how I can alter the Coordinate class (or maybe one of the update methods or the onDraw method in TileView) so that the coordinates of the snake's tiles lie on the SnakeView view's coordinate plane?
