Viewport position
Posted: Wed Jan 26, 2022 4:28 pm
Hello, guys. Guess I need some little help here.
I'm using several viewports in my screen in order to achieve 3d effect when you edgescroll it.
In my opinion it looks great and I dont want to give it up.
But when player starts some dialog or changes scene, this screen shuts down and I have to show some static image as a scene bg and ofcourse it is not cosidering what "location" player had in that screen.
Here is some little gif showing what I mean:

The whole code looks like this:
Personally I have only two ideas:
1. Get X coordinates of each displayed image on screen at the moment when you click on any imagebutton, then show some composite image as a background with displacement of each layer of an image for right amount of coordinates.
2. It's folly, but maybe I can make some picture of a screen in exact time when player clicks on imagebutton and this picture will be a background for the following dialogs and dissolves. Then it removes somehow from file storaging when it's no more needed.
There may already be a simple solution that I don't know... I really hope for any good ideas!
