Question

I was wondering if it would be possible to get a vector with an X and a Y value as a single number, knowing that both X and Y can range from -65000 to +65000.

Is this possible in any way?

Code examples on how to convert from this kind of number and to it would be nice.

Answer 1

Store it in a ulong:

ulong rslt = (uint)x;
rslt = rslt << 32;
rslt |= ((uint)y);

To get it out:

int x = (int)(rslt >> 32);
int y = (int)(rslt & 0xFFFFFFFF);
