I have a sprite that is at start Y position of around 2000 on a map. It scrolls with the tile map, but i dont want to draw the sprite until the maps scroll position is within 500 of the sprite. What is a simple way to test if the sprites Y position is within 500 less or 500 greater then the map position at all times. Sorry if this is unclear _DMX_

What about:

if( ABS(sprite.pos - map.pos) < 500 ){ // draw sprite}
