right getting into fenix after not having coded in DIV for more than a year means ive forgotten alot of the basics, and the flamingbird.com language docs are friggin useless with all the gaps.

scroll[0].x++;

this doesnt work. How do i get the scroll to move?

Try taking out the [0] or changing the addition to subtraction or changing the x to y or changing anything else. You've used start_scroll yeah?

ive tried all of those already and none of them work. The compiler gives me the error that x (or y) is an unknown identifier. wtf? is there a special scrollx variable i dont know? (yes i have used start_scroll)

right ive botch solved the first problem by making a "camera" process and making using scroll[0].camera=id; but its only given me a multitude of other problems

start_scroll(0,env_file,1,0,0,1);

what does the last parameter mean? at 0 the screen refuses to move and at 1 c_screen processes collide with c_scroll processes as though they are on the same plane. HELP ME

DIV was always .x0 and .x1 anyway, for background and foreground.

Becasue Casper, the scroll in DIV/Fenix is too limiting and often slow.
It's just not good.

Making your own isn't hard at all.
