Draw what you need, bg first, followed by foreground.
Updates screen. Time.Delay() for a bit. Redraw, View.Update again. |

If you're trying to simulate a lot of snowflakes at once you'll be asking the computer to do a lot of calculatons. You are probably used to nice, speedy computers at home, but it is possible your computers at school are not so quick. Also, this is something you should keep in mind when your summative project rolls around, because it you haven't tested it at school it might look really crummy when the teacher tries to run it. |
