the idea is that your character is always in the center and the rest of the map is relative to your character.

so when your character is at x:125 (for example... also assume that center of the screen is at x:25). You move everything else 100 units to the left

so what would i do ti make to "scroll" smoothly?
ie: like in a mario game , the screen will gradually scroll in relative to my character and is just doesnt pop up there.
