Is there, perchance, a quicker way than rectfill to clear the screen? I suspect not, but you never know...

I don't think so. The only other way I can think possible is to have a blank image and blit it to the screen when ever you want to clear it.

If rectfill is a substantial part of your time per gameloop, you're getting too many fps. Note, though, ShowPage() gets very slow at higher resolutions.

Any speed increase from a rectfill to a raw clear would be pretty negligable.

Yeah, I considered that, but I'm pretty sure blits take longer.

Calling Render() clears the screen anyway, does it not? Or is that only while running a map? If you are calling Render you might not need to do a clear.

Yeah, Render() renders the map and entities, effectively clearing anything that was drawn to the screen beforehand...

I'm pretty sure it doesn't do that if there's no map loaded.

Oh, I believe, if there's no 'R' in the renderstring.
