is there a setting where I can make a grid on my game like 52x52 and make things snap to it? my game is going to have A LOT of actor blocks that make up the ground and stuff, and its taking forever to drag it to the scene and line it up with the arrow keys.

    Sorry. No. There is a tool for something like it though, if you're willing to pay.

    that wouldnt really help much since I still would have to place and move them with the arrow keys exactly, it would have been easier to just drag and it snap onto the closest grid square.

    oh well I guess I will just do it one by one.

    thanks.

    You should change the position right in the actor to make it more precise.

    draw a grid in your image maker App.... ... then put in your scene

    (I did in Gimp > Image > Configure Grid... set square size & bg/line colors... View > Show Grid... and take a screenShot {[shift] + [] + [4] should change cursor to drag-able area...and at release...put a shot on your desktop}

    no 'snap to'... but works... for eyeballing...
