Using SCROLL for a textgame.

Hello. I'm using

SCROLL X,Y

to scroll the text in my text-based world. It works perfectly fine on the x-axis, but I'm having issues for the y-axis as there is seemingly no way to

PRINT

any text lower than y0 or higher than y29. I have the text for the environment saved to variables so I'm sure the solution lies with them, but I can't figure it out as of yet. So, in short: Can't

PRINT

text lower than 0 or higher than 29. I want a way to get around this. I'm using

SCROLL

. I'm using text variables. Does anyone have a solution? The game's code number is 8JE423K4. Yes, I know the game's code format is probably hideous. It's more of a personal project.

I haven't downloaded your game yet, but you can use GPUTCHR which allows you to to place text anywhere and isnt confined to to the the spots LOCATE allows for.

Try a different approach: make an 8 pixel border around the game on the graphics layer with GLINE or something so new areas are "drawn" in underneath but still within the screen. That way, players don't see the redraws at the edge of the screen but you're still within the 0-29 range. Also don't forget that printing at the bottom requires a semicolon like PRINT "YEAH"; so it doesn't insert a new line and scroll the screen automatically.
