I am new to game programming and to these sites for help. I am making a 2D game but I can't seem to get the collision between my character and certain tiles. I have a map filled with grass tiles and water tiles and I want to keep my character from walking on the water tiles. I have a Tiles class that I use so that the tiles are objects and also has the collision method in it, a TileEngine class used create the map and it also holds a list of Tiles, and the class James which is for my character. I also have a Camera class that centers the camera on my character if that has anything to do with the problem. The character's movement is intended to be restricted to 4 directions(up, down, left, right). As an extra note, the bottom right water tile does have collision, but the collision does not occur for any of the other water tiles.
Here is my TileEngine class

public void drawMap(SpriteBatch spriteBatch)
{
for (int y = 0; y < map.GetLength(0); y++)
{
for (int x = 0; x < map.GetLength(1); x++)
{
//make a Rectangle
tilesList[map[y, x]].rectangle = new Rectangle(x * tileWidth, y * tileHeight, tileWidth, tileHeight);
//draw the Tiles objects
spriteBatch.Draw(tilesList[map[y, x]].texture,
tilesList[map[y, x]].rectangle,
Color.White);
}
}
}
}
}
Here is my Tiles class
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using Microsoft.Xna.Framework;
using Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Audio;
using Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Content;
using Microsoft.Xna.Framework.GamerServices;
using Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Graphics;
using Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Input;
using Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Media;
namespace Test2DGame2
{
class Tiles
{
public Texture2D texture;
public Rectangle rectangle;
public Tiles(Texture2D texture)
{
this.texture = texture;
}
//check to see if james collides with the tile from the right side
public void rightCollision(James james)
{
if (james.GetBounds().Intersects(rectangle))
{
james.position.X = rectangle.Left - james.front.Width;
}
}
}
}
I have a method for rightCollision because I could only figure out how to get the collisions from specifying directions.
and here is the James class for my character
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;

using Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Media;

class James
{
public Texture2D front;
public Texture2D back;
public Texture2D left;
public Texture2D right;
public Vector2 center;
public Vector2 position;
public James(Texture2D front)
{
position = new Vector2(0, 0);
this.front = front;
center = new Vector2(front.Width / 2, front.Height / 2);
}
public James(Texture2D front, Vector2 newPosition)
{
this.front = front;
position = newPosition;
center = new Vector2(front.Width / 2, front.Height / 2);
}
public void move(GameTime gameTime)
{
KeyboardState keyboard = Keyboard.GetState();
float SCALE = 20.0f;
float speed = gameTime.ElapsedGameTime.Milliseconds / 100.0f;
if (keyboard.IsKeyDown(Keys.Up))
{
position.Y -=speed * SCALE;
}
else if (keyboard.IsKeyDown(Keys.Down))
{
position.Y += speed * SCALE;
}
else if (keyboard.IsKeyDown(Keys.Left))
{
position.X -= speed * SCALE;
}
else if (keyboard.IsKeyDown(Keys.Right))
{
position.X += speed * SCALE;
}
}
public void draw(SpriteBatch spriteBatch)
{
spriteBatch.Draw(front, position, null, Color.White, 0, center, 1.0f, SpriteEffects.None, 0.0f);
}
//get the boundingbox for James
public Rectangle GetBounds()
{
return new Rectangle(
(int)position.X,
(int)position.Y,
front.Width, front.Height);
}
}
}
