It basically starts breaking as I move the character to the right and the map touches the edges of the screen, this is where things start falling apart and the map looses shape and doing a weird pattern. I've tried many MANY different things but no luck... I'm sure its simple but my brain is fried hah. Any help appreciated.

For an object in a scrolling world, you should draw it at:
* the object's position within the map
* minus the position of the camera (in this case, the player's position)
* plus half the width/height of the window, to center the camera

Thanks for your response!

In the end I got it working it turns out stopping the map going beyond -64 was an artificial limitation that wasn’t needed! Set the tile map to start at 1 seemed to work and it’s all good. Technically cutting corners by drawing whole map but it’s given me such a headache I’m happy it just works for now!
