Apologies if this has already been mentioned... I discarded some of the original posts.
If you are using a timer with a delay that does divide evenly to your frame rate, it stands to reason that some screen updates the item will have traveled more pixels than others. Example: Frame rate 24 fps roughly equals .042 updates per second: Frame 1 (.000) : Timer fires at .02, .04 Frame 2 (.042) : Timer fires at .06, .08 ... Frame 10 (.380) : Timer fires at .38, .40, .42 Frame 11 (.422) : Timer fires at .44, .46 So in this example, every ten frames/screen updates you're jumping an extra pixel. Therefore either keeping framelength % updatedelay = 0, or forcing screen update with updateAfterEvent() might solve the problem. Again, sorry if someone already mentioned this. -jonathan On Fri, May 23, 2008 at 5:59 AM, EECOLOR <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > You could create a bitmap using BitmapData.draw.
