find the distance between you ..and the objetc..and if the object if farter....or further.... i dont know... i mean if he is more far
..than the camera range then.. "hide object" and make static object....for the object that you dont need to move...

and object that you need to move...just some time..you can use "attach object to static" ...but this commande is a BIG BUG

Couldn't you just use 'object in screen' to do it.

Why the hell'd you ask me for crying out loud!?!

the way i make my fps[frames per second] faster is i do...

for a=[first object] to [last object]
if object in screen(a)=1 and object visible(a)=0 then show object a
if object in screen(a)=0 and object visible(a)=1 then hide object a
next a

this will speed your fps up by a 2-5. Also if you're game uses fog you can set the camera distance to a little more than the fog distance. This will also speed up you're fps (make sure you use a sky sphere)....hope this helps.
