I am making a small image appear on the screen that follows my player, but instead of it following, it just doesn't appear. I noticed that perhaps this is because $gamePlayer.x and $gamePlayer.y doesn't cut it. So I turned to find the screen_x and screen_y, but it seems like the others, they were renamed or not anymore existent.

Is newX and newY the new screen_x and screen_y?

I also have a returning question. The image I am using is around 2000 x 1500, where the middle is just green circle with some measurements in it, to emulate as if the character is looking at a scope. I want the image to follow the character, but seeing how large the image is, it doesn't fit in very much to the screen, and doesn't follow the player.

Can anyone care to explain where I might went wrong?

Holy stink, where have I been? Well, I started my temporary job this week. So less time to spend on game design... :(
Cartoonier cloud cover that better fits the art style, as well as (slightly) improved blending/fading... fading clouds when there are larger patterns is still somewhat abrupt for some reason.
