UK Riots9th August 2011 I have heard reports of these moronic youths and now it seems a growing number of older people in cars looting because of the chaos in the streets. As there is no large group of rioters to police its difficult with cuts in police numbers. One thing I rea*snip* |

poor performing tile map render14th July 2011 I tried that before and it was slower. I have learnt a lot since then though I think I will leave the renderer as it is for now. Its not slow but if its not done correctly it will annoy me. Hoboben, do you know a way to disable vsync for cobra2d? |

poor performing tile map render14th July 2011 I'm struggling to find any decent theory on this subject. What I can find is code for other languages that do it the same way I do. im looking through amazon right now for some physical works but still bobbins |

poor performing tile map render14th July 2011 I just went over my code this is how it works the game engine tracks where the player is. it then calls the map drawing function with parameters, x,y where to draw it, width and height, it will then draw the part of the map that's visible. |

poor performing tile map render14th July 2011 That sounds like a perfect solution.

poor performing tile map render12th July 2011 I thought I would tidy up and optimise my tile map render code a little but i got some weird effect. The newer code is about 20 fps slower than the old, and deathly slow when debugmode=1. can someone explain why because i certainly cant? this is the ori*snip* |
