What's wrong with it? It's about the "smartest" solution I've seen - it
seems to completely switch off the sprite, whereas moving the Y value to 160
means you also have to ensure that the sprite is not high enough to wrap
around to the top of the screen.

Subject: [gbadev] Method to disable (hide) a sprite


Is there an easy method to disable (hide) a sprite on the GBA ?

Actually, when I do not use an OAM entry, I fill it with 0.
In sprite RAM, the first 8 x 8 block I put is filled with 0.

But I think there is a limitation on the maximum displayable sprites per
line,
even if these sprites are fully 8 x 8 transparent blocks ?

I've already saw articles talking about the double - size flag, but it seems
not to be a really "smart" solution.
