Fast scrolling with PyGame
I found a PyGame mailing list thread on fast scrolling maps today. It’s from 2002, so it’s a little old. I think, however, that it might still be useful.
Quoth the original poster:
“Can anyone point me to a good example of a fast scrolling background (full-screen or nearly full-screen)?”
The subsequent thread has quite a few potential solutions and lot of advice.
