How can I make looped map?
« on: October 10, 2015, 10:06:28 am »
I'm making side scrolling game and i want to loop my map, so when the player goes right, map repeats infinitely and enemies, coins and so on generate randomly. How can I do it with SFML?

Read this book, there's an example of how to implement what you want:

If you just want to repeatedly move the background, you just make it longer than the window size and after a certain threshold you reset its position.
If you also have objects flying around, you could rest their position as well.
