Tiling performance in c++
|
On first draw its entire map, so 768 draws. (32x24). Once thats done it sets tiles to dirty = false and only draws if those tiles are dirty (moved, changed, something moves over them). So my drawcount at that point is literally 0. |

Device not clearing

The magenta off the back side of the building is part of one of the background layers. Need to fix it. I'm using a color key and those are a couple spots that are off by a small bit so the engine still draws them. May try some shading like I... |
