Vertical Scroller

[dsilvers]

I'm making a SHMUP and am having some difficulty. The autoscrolling works fine (big thanks to these forums and tutorial). The problem is the ship. Its movement area is limited on the right and left sides, so that's fine, but not on the top or bottom. This means that while the screen is scrolling, the ship can essentially fall off the screen on the top or bottom, but it can fly back on afterward. How do I stop it from being able to fly off of the screen?

Tried that. The window scrolls right past it.

Try this:

+ Y position of (your object) < Y Top Frame
- Set Y position (of your object) to Y Top Frame

+ Y position of (your object) > Y Bottom Frame - (the height of your object)
- Set Y position (of your object) to Y Bottom Frame - (the height of your object + 1)
