Suppose I have the following:

int dx; // represents the destination x
int dy; // represents the destination y

int xvel; // move x
int yvel; // move y

//global
int xnew = 0;
int ynew = 0;
============

dx = 100;
dy = 100;

xvel = 5;
yvel = 5;

xnew = dx + xvel;
ynew = dy + yvel;

lpddsback->BltFast(xnew,ynew, lpddsoff2, NULL, FALSE);

// shouldn't this update the location of the image with the new location? Assume the lpddsoff2 holds the image. Each time this is called doesn't the xnew,ynew hold the updated total of (X,Y)? I tried changing it to static, but isn't already static? What the heck am I doing wrong?

The way I have it figured it should run itself right off the screen after a couple of calls, but it doesn't move
