@Blobbey can you share your code? or (if the code is a secret) can you make a new project where you do the same thing? ---

@richard, do you know what the problem is? ---

sorry! things have been a little hectic lately… this extension currently only works if there is a tilemap. the issue here is that no tilemap is being set. ---

Okay. The main project I was using this extension for uses 8x8 tilemaps, so was that the problem? ---

8x8 tilemaps should be fine as long as the tilemap is set before you call any of the split screen blocks ---

Okay, thanks! I never though to put the tilemap block before the split-screen! 😆 ---

Can you use it with raycasting? ---

No, it does not work nor will it be worked on. > [@AqeeAqee](#): > > This raycasting ext. is drawing directly to the screen, and not considered split screen when designing. So it is not compatible with split screen mode yet. And I am not think I will fix this, cause: > > - The 3D mode will not performance well if render twice for both players. ---

Hey folks! I just overhauled this extension and added a ton of new features: - Support for up to 4 cameras - Cameras can be assigned to different regions of the screen - Added equivalent blocks for all of the scene category camera blocks: - follow sprite - set position - get camera property - screen shake - New block for turning splitscreen on/off - New block for setting the color of the border between cameras - No longer requires a tilemap With the ability to assign regions of the screen for each camera, you can now customize how each player is laid out. For example, you can do any weird version of three players that you want: > **[split-screen-demo](https://arcade.makecode.com/S72891-64935-05958-94413)** > > Made with ❤️ in Microsoft MakeCode Arcade.

Is there a way to dynamically remove cameras - for example, when player 2 connects a camera shows up, and when player 2 disconnects the extra camera disappears. ---
