POBackground colour of player character (@) overlapping other tiles

copied!<p>I'm making a rogue like game using pdcurses in C++ and all it's going ok at the moment. But I'm facing a problem right now that I don't know how to solve.</p> <p>Let's see a screenshot of the problem for better understanding:</p> <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/9ylf4.png" alt="http://i.imgur.com/xr9Faj1.png"></p> <p>As you can see, if you zoom in the upper red circle, you can see how the player character is overlapping the enemy troll (t) about 2 pixels on its left side. The problem is that if the player moves to another position, the enemy troll has lost that 2 pixels <strong>forever</strong>, so this is not a thing that just happens while the player is on the left side, but it's permanent.</p> <p>In the other circle the player has moved from right to left on the corridor, and the corridor tiles (#) have lost their left side pixels too.</p> <p>So here is where I update all the graphics stuff:</p> <pre><code>dungeon_.generate(); while(state_ == State::Running) { if(manageInput(windows_[0]) != -1) { // Update here monsters behavior } dungeon_.draw(windows_[0]); player_->draw(windows_[0]); refreshWindows(windows_); } </code></pre> <p>This is the <strong>refreshWindows(std::vector windows)</strong> method:</p> <pre><code>void Game::refreshWindows(std::vector<WINDOW *> windows) { for(auto w : windows) { Curses::wbox(w, 0, 0); Curses::refresh(w); } } </code></pre> <p>Both <strong>draw methods</strong> of player and dungeon do this, but dungeon also different cases for every tile in the map on drawing:</p> <pre><code>void Player::draw(WINDOW *win) { Curses::mvwaddch(win, location_.y, location_.x, static_cast<char>(type_) | COLOR_PAIR(static_cast<int>(GameObject::Color::White_Green))); } </code></pre> <p>And this is how <strong>int manageInput(WINDOW *win)</strong> looks like:</p> <pre><code>int Game::manageInput(WINDOW *win) { int key = Curses::wgetch(win); if(key != -1) { // Player movement if(key == static_cast<int>(Curses::Key::Up)) { player_->moveNorth(dungeon_.map()); } [...] } return key; } </code></pre> <p>As you can see, it's a really simple approach which I'm using in my game loop, so I don't know why the hell it's not working. These are things I have tested:</p> <ul> <li>Remove colour support: This is the only way the game works correctly, but of course I want to use colours.</li> <li>Moving the manageInput if after both player and dungeon draws and placing a wclear(windows_[0]); inside the manageInput() if (otherwise it doesn't work). This way seems like the window is cleared and the map get drew again from scratch. This way works too, <strong>but</strong> the window flicks and that's not really cool.</li> </ul> <p>And that's all. I don't know what to do to fix it. If you need more information you can find here the git repository: <a href="https://github.com/SantiagoSanchez/Ruoeg" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://github.com/SantiagoSanchez/Ruoeg</a></p> <p>Thanks in advance.</p>
