I am making a racing game that requires the cars to move to the right of the screen. When a car gets to a certain point, I want the screen to scroll to the side which means that I can see new parts of the map. It is 2-D and I want the screen to stop scrolling at a certain amount. For example if 2000 pixels where scrolled right, then I want it to stop scrolling. Can someone please send me a code to do tjhis for me? Thanks in advanced! |

Offset all your drawing, and if something is out of screen bounds, don't draw it at all. Very simply really :p |

Then check if it is past XX% of the screen, and if it is, increase your offset to scroll it, and if they are less than YY%|YY<XX of the screen, scroll the other way. I don't really know how to explain it better than that. |

var xoffset, yoffset : int drawfill(xoffset + X, yoffset + Y, ...) <check if the player is passed XX%> xoffset += 30 <check if they are less than YY%|YY<XX> xoffset -= 30 Or something rather. Haven't touched turing in years, sorry :p |
