This is more of a straightfoward question rather than a problem, how do you create walls or simulate boundaries? Especially in an isometric view? For my game I'm having it so you can move around towns freely, but I don't want people just walking all over the place? Anyone know of any article tha exist or a game which already has this implemented so I can reproduce the formula?
Thanks in advance...

If you're using a custom movement (I hope you are  ) but make some detector objects, and position them around the player. Then you can test whether it's overlapping a wall or not, and if the player is able to move in a direction.

If you're using isometrics then you should look into Arrays. That way you could do an easy tile-based movement (eg, 1 block at a time until you let go of the button) with walls and whatever, without even using collision detection

Try looking at the Isometric Grid object 2.0, it comes in the Clickteam Bonus pack.

If you are not using custom movement, you are going to have to use a "foot detector" that actually controls the movement, and then set the player graphic to always stay on the detector.
