Hello,
I'd like to know what's the best way to make a sidescroller game?
I know that there are some libraries that are really good at helping me with this, but the best one I found (Forum_account's library) is around 2 years old and maybe BYOND may have gotten some updates that make doing a sidescroller easier.

So, I was wondering if in this moment there's a way of developing a sidescroller that is better than the one used in the library.

Also, I am not sure if this is the correct section for this post, so if I made this post in a wrong section, please tell me.

WSHGC	^ Agreed. Forum_account's is the only one I'm aware of that is best to use and actually helpful. It's pretty much your best option unless you had your own implementation. Using the forum search, there's only 2 other sidescroller resources: http://www.byond.com/developer/?text=Side+scroller&sort=pop So, in my opinion and others, Forum_account's is the best option.
