Also Virtual is 19000 x 19000 too btw. This works considering that 1000 extra pixels around the border of the map wont cause scrolling issues down the line.

Rule number 1: Never resize anything in MMF2
Rule number 2: Never handle off-screen collisions in MMF2

Also, your scenario has nothing to do with handling collisions out of the window, since the hitting of the switch happens on-screen. Setting flags should not present a problem.

It may be worthwhile to mention that the world in Metroid and super Metroid is not all in one frame, there are loading areas whenever you go through a door.

The rest of them will write Perl programs.

I had considered that, however, the overlay would present a problem if I had to make multiple frames.

Why would the overlay be a problem?? You could still use the overlay and multiple frames

I think he means the transitions, which only look tricky and are actually very easy to do. Just have a frame dedicated to transitions and have two global values to tell which way the character is moving and where the destination is.

I have to fiddle with it when i get to that point... there will just be so many things that could change in one frame, that when you have to do back tracking, that frame would have to entirely different than when you first got there... having it all on one frame would make things so much easier... Everything is still in its infancy as of now...

Have you got it scrolling yet?

I've no idea what the upper limit for level size is if there is a limit (probably there is). So I am not sure if that would be the problem.

What might a problem is that your character is falling out of the level and the scrolling therefore can't center the screen on your character.

I am just doing some guesses and making assumptions, since it wasn't (isn't, while posting) clear for me if you've got scrolling working already.

Happy coding!
