Scrolling view a la 1945 demo.

[Mardi-Gras]

I've been looking at the code to Jazz-e-Bob's excellent 1945 demo, and i cannot for the life of me figure out how the view is operating. The view in this demo moves the player object ever forwards vertically through the level - a fantastic effect I'd love to replicate on the horizontal axis... but i'm too fuddle-minded to decipher the code that is in front of me.

If anyone could explain to me the logic behind how this moving view operates, I'd be grateful.

Many thanks in advance.

Ah... and suddenly, it all makes sense.

Thanks for the response, Gogo. As always, most very helpful.

No problem.

I like being of any help.

Or in some cases, it is better to set view.yvelocity (or xvelocity) to a number. You might want wire-frame rgions to stop your player going off the screen.
