after using this

RawDrawLine(0,0,160,100); or RawDrawImage(100,100,134);

how do i then remove the line/image from the screen..?

allso on the same area can i have the game draw the line from one character to another?

thought this might be a handy way to depict some form of attack element..a bullet perhaps or an arrow..rather than using a sprite and animation..

Has it got something to do with the RawSaveScreen and RawRestoreScreen commands? Are they spelled like that?

i dunno, i read them thru and they didn't sound likely candidates etc ..seemed to refer to the whole screen rather than the specific line or image...i should really have tried them but i must admit i wasn;t at all sure..i don't think theyre the ones ..unless i need to save the screen before using the rawdraw script then restore it again in order to remove it..sounds bit heavy going for continued and frequent use..

To my knowledge, there are no functions that allow you to erase specific lines or images.
I fear that all that is possible is saving the screen and restoring it at the appropriate time...
The RawDraw commands seem pretty fast, so it works quite well.
But I do not think that they are intended for more complex drawings or animations
