Me and my friend are working on a game based on the original Atari Football. We are currently using timers to control all of the moving objects in the game. I don''t know if timers are very memory-efficient, but it''s the only way I have seen to do it without using an API like OpenGL or DirectX. So my question is, is there a better way than using timers? Thanks in advance.

Try hooking into the Application.Idle event. It will be called whenever the application has nothing better to do.

For those who believe in God, most of the big questions are answered. But for those of us who can''t readily accept the God formula, the big answers don''t remain stone- written. We adjust to new conditions and discoveries. We are pliable. Love need not be a command or faith a dictum. I am my own God. We are here to unlearn the teachings of the church, state, and our educational system. We are here to drink beer. We are here to kill war. We are here to laugh at the odds and live our lives so well that Death will tremble to take us -- Charles Bukowski
