Well, I have two points… A and B. I want to get all of the points in-between them, but I want them split like paint does when you draw lines of whatever.


I don't really want to use any drawing functions if possible - I can't really optimize those. Although I'm not saying they're slow…

Suggestion,

Work out the distances x,y between the two points. (Called idistx, idisty).

Decide how many dots you want, say 10. Your dots will then be idistx/10, idisty/10 apart.

Start at A and add idistx, idisty and store first point (in your array).
Repeat until you reach b.

Is this any help?

Not really… Could you write the equations you are talking about out?


Well, in case you didn't exactly get it, I just want to split lines into smaller contiguous (straight) lines that provide the effect of being at an angle.

edit: nvm just saw its C
