Okay, you asked for ANY help. Without knowing exactly how
your game works, I'll have to give you very GENERAL help.
Scrolling is a simple concpet: all that it really means is
displaying to the screen a slightly different position of
the world. If you are using bitmaps, you should have a
separate image for the view area. All new drawing should be
done to this "buffer" image. The buffer should then be copied
to the screen when all drawing is done.
The concept of scrolling is simply drawing a changing location
of the game-world onto the unchanging location of the screen.
Pseudocode follows:
game loop
calculate new game data (positions etc.)
change view position
draw new game data to buffer relative to view position
copy buffer to screen
end loop
later,
Lewis Townsend
