the things we leave behind...

 I was playing a a winter rose, and I was wondering how the  snow tracks were programmed. I had an idea for a game (deputy e.i. and the spirit of theatro) but one of the puzzles required following a trail. banging my newbie head against this problem is the main reason i gave up on the game. if one could tell me how to do it I would be able to continue making that game with hope.

I've asked similar questions lo res, and you should do a search.

But its done with one of the RawDraw functions.

EDIT: Here this should answer your question:

I've entered a coding competition once, the only thing I finished were the footsteps.

Feel free to ask about the code I've used.

Did you look at the thread I linked to? It tells exactly how to do it lo_res_manÃ,  :

I believe it's done by RawDrawing footprint sprites at the player.x, player.y coordinates. .

erm..not really, maybe this thread should be moved to newbie tech.
