A question on framerates

[JoeS]

Map re-drawing has always looked so chunky in Mir. If you focus on the center of the screen only it can appear smooth but broaden your focus or pay attention to peripheral vision means you always see the chunkiness of re-drawing.

Will there ever be away to change this? Will higher framerates cause other issues like with movement speeds?

The background moves in sync with your character and because the character movement sprites only have 6 frames for each direction it means the background only updates 6 times for each step. You can change this to make it smoother but it generally looks much worse as it doesn't match the movement.
