Scroll without wrapping

[vnsbr]

Hi everyone!
Is there a way to scroll without wrapping tha background image?

The effect that i am looking for is that i have a forest background image and depeding in how far the player goes vertically i wanted only to show the background color while scrolling the forest down.

Thanks

You have to keep redrawing the tilemap as the camera scrolls (the tilemap can only hold a chunk of the image, you need to keep drawing in new chunks as it moves around).

EDIT: yes, this goes even for drawing blank tiles :​P

thanks Sik! i was hoping there was a trick I could do. I think ill just make the background bigger and paint transparent some tiles, decompression should help. And will use regular scrolling functions for background as well
