I'm working on a tile-based game, and I'd like to have diagonal lines for (32x32) tiles. The problem is, whenever you tile them, they look like this:

How do I make it seamlessly tile?

This is very similar to this question: graphicdesign.stackexchange.com/questions/637/… – Johannes Nov 8 '11 at 6:54
Seemingly so, but I have a different question and that, unfortunately, had no usable solution. – mpnk121 Nov 8 '11 at 7:10
"How" depends entirely on what tool(s) you're using. Since you don't say, the question as written doesn't contain enough information for anyone to answer. – Alan Gilbertson♦ Nov 8 '11 at 8:26

If your lines should perfectly align to pixels, then you must choose a spacing that's a divisor of 32.

This leaves you with line-spacings of 2, 4, 8 and 16. And since 1 pixel is occupied by the line itself, your possible "blank" lines between your lines are 1, 3, 7 and 15.
