It shouldn't lag at all if you just don't have them like covering the whole playfield. I have about 30 of them moving around and stuff in SS racing, plus mode7 object which usually causes some lagginessfulnessity, but still no problemo for me o_O n/a
DaVince This fool just HAD to have a custom rating Registered 04/09/2004 Points 7998	20th November, 2005 at 15:29:37 - @Moonbird: the simplest way without any extensions I can think of is making a circle with fade (in an active object), and give that a transparency of about 100. But that looks much more ugly. Old member (~2004-2007).

Cut out a torch shape in the middle, and have that always over your charcter, facing the same direction. Craps, I'm an old man!
moonbird99 Registered 03/04/2004 Points 910	20th November, 2005 at 18:06:51 - mmm .... like that idea but I guess it will add to the size of the game significantly but it's an idea worth messing about with - thx to start press any key ...... where's the ANY KEY??
Peblo Custom ratings must be 50 characters or less Registered 05/07/2002 Points 185	20th November, 2005 at 22:44:32 - Wasn't there like some kind of torch example that messed with the OR, AND, and XOR object properties?

Contact Trevor, because the link for it is now down. Here's something else I've found when searching on CT forums: http://www.clickteam.com/CTforum/showflat.php3?Cat=&Board=upload&Number=267829&page=&view=&sb=&o=&vc=1 I haven't downloaded it, but the comments say it's good.
