[That's pretty much the question.]

Because few know what it does (I don't!), and those who do know, but are too lazy to document it themselves. If you actually know what it does, please document it yourself, to the aid of everyone else! Ask McGrue to become a V3 Manual editor.

Er, it flips an image vertically and/or horizontally when blitting it, doesn't it? The implementation is:

FlipBlit(int x, int y, int fx, int fy, int src, int dest)

FX and FY are booleans - I'm fairly sure (haven't found an instance in which to use it yet) - determining whether to flip the X and/or the Y (hence the abbreviations).

Come on, Overkill: you're fairly smart, you should have guessed that!

Anyway, want me to document it or are you?

I'm making a mental note of that. It'll sure be usefull if ever I do get around to actually doing something... (Sounds like it would be useful for mirror effects.)

I'm smart, but I never bothered to look it up in http://vecna.verge-rpg.com/v3vergec.txt :D. Feel free to document it for me, I've got my hands tied with other stuff lately.

Right. Thanks, just checking.

I remember that I used it in my ...er..something...maybe the image distortion...a while back, and suddenly realized that I couldn't find it in any documentation, and even began to wonder whether or not the function even existed :)

I believe FlipBlit was just added in the latest release of V3 (9/28), so the documentation might not have been updated. See if it's in the changelog.

It's not documented because you don't have enough love in your heart and spring in your stride.

Not anymore! I just added it to the functions list in the VERGE Manual as a comment. If anyone can actually edit the manual, please do so to include it's definition in a more official sense.

BECAUSE FLIPBLIT IS FOR NERDS

(I do not have an answer to this question but I felt like posting anyway.)

(this was added to the docs proper several minutes after int22 made the comment in the docs)
