Slapdash call sheet for a Zoom game of Bingo my mom's going to host with her coworkers from Liberty Mutual--hence the logo in the corner. I have some ideas for how to make it prettier:

randomization animation where it clicks through options before slowing down and settling on one
menu / game over screen
big blinking button to randomize--more tactile

Clipping rectangle doesn't seem to move with camera?

Tue, 09 Jun 2020 17:09:43 UTC

I've just started experimenting with clipping and camera movement and it seems that when I move the camera, clipping rectangles I use on-screen don't appear to follow cleanly with the camera. I'm attaching a cart that shows what I mean. Arrow keys move the camera and Z / X reset it.

Moving the camera keeps the items I'm drawing in the correct position while failing to move the clipping rectangle.

Here is the cart:

A rough fix: I got the camera coordinates:
cx, cy = %0x5f28, %0x5f2a

and used them to offset the clipping rectangle by those values:
clip (o.x - cx, o.y - cy, 11, 6)

I probably could just reuse the variables I moved the camera with for the fix, but I wanted a solution that wouldn't depend on those variables existing.

It works, but I wish there was a better way to make the clipping rectangle follow the camera.

Here is the cart with the fixed code:

Is this a known thing? Is this a bug or a feature? It's not crippling since I can just do the peek thing, but it bothers me >_>

Here's how the pills are supposed to spin, if you're curious. The weird clipping is even more wild when they're spinning as intended, especially when moving the camera vertically:
