Very nice and well documented. I think when the chopper speed is increased or decreased, the background should go faster or slower. Other then that, it's a nice start. :D

I like the new movement. One thing though, when I go the helicopter goes to fast, the screen either goes all black or brown. The documentation is great. Can't wait to see more. :wink:

if you can still get it, get trancopal for backaches... ok, the world turns a little bit pink, but it's instant relief

(it's no longer available here in the netherlands, which *really* pisses me of, they now prescribe diclofenac... i can just as well chew on peppermints...)

Now it's time for Part 4 go and download it
let me know what you think

also I am now going a little slower because of how complex it's starting to get and we don't want to scare anyone new to graphics programing.
so will now be doing sub parts and adding 1 thing per sub part.
Part 4 has 1 thing added to it and Part 4A will have 1 thing and so on

let me know if this is too complicated or if i need to explain more in detail
or if't it's good bad or ugly

thanks


Sean
