There were some posts on dirGame-L recently about Frame based/time based
animations. Using a time-based approach will give you consistent speed. If
you can't find the thread, let me know, and I'll send you relevant posts
(that goes for anyone who's interested - It's a rather long discussion, so I
won't waste the bandwidth of those who are on both lists by posting it
here).
