The answer is carried from if statements, but that was an !If statement which activates when the expression following it equals zero, so zero carries to the next line.

wow, i don't think i've derped that badly in some time. thanks for your patience

I wonder if this can be modified to scroll in arbitrary distances... (up to 8 pixels of course)

I'll try my best Tongue

that would be EXCEEDINGLY helpful!

I've deduced that scrolling more that 1 pixel per frame means that you would have to display more than 1 column of sprites per scroll, so it would be slower for sure, but i don't think the speed difference would be that large hopefully.

wait, so i got something right?

/\i do that type of thing all the time(get a hunch as to how something could work, write it out as quickly as possible, and, if it doesn't work[which is usually], fiddle with it blindly until it does). after this process, i usually fall asleep(it tends to occur when i'm really tired), and then read over it in the morning, try to understand it, and re-write it from scratch.

The old engine only scrolled 1 pixel per frame, so it got 60 fps, but therefore it only scrolled 60 pixels per second. Behold, the new engine that can scroll an arbitrary number of pixels from 1-8 per frame! In the example screenshot (which probably looks like crap and doesn't accurately reflect the realistic performance) I'm scrolling 3 pixels per frame (controlled by the value of S set in the program) and get about 35-40 fps, giving scrolling rates of 100-120 pixels per second!

Also, with the old engine I didn't realize how interested people would be in this so I didn't bother to optimize it much. This time I went ahead and optimized it to the fullest of my abilities.

Hello there !
I have a question concerning the former ztrumpet's smooth scrolling tilemapper :
I tried to increase width by changing the right variable and adding bytes at the end of each line in GDB1 but it doesn't worked. Though to increase height I added some rows to GDB and it worked...
does anyone can help me please ?

ps: i'm not english nor american and I still learning that language then I apologize for my possible mistakes

hello!
do you mean the smoothscrolling engine in this topic?
if so then z is probably the best person to answer your question.

and don't worry about language stuff; everyone can understand you perfectly =D

also, you should introduce yourself here!

Okay ! Thanks for your answers   I will try this as soon as I can !
( I hadn't seen var O  )

thank you Dj ! I'm going on omnimaga for a while to find things about Axe, for example when I have problems in my code and I think its forum is very useful, mainly because there are many members with a very good knowledge of Axe, then I registered

ps for ztrumpet : your code worked perfectly of course
