Fighting or moving near map/screen edge

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Fight with the monster on the top or bottom edge of the screen

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
* info box covers fight / you don't see a hero or other monsters until it 
disappear and it's hard to escape if you just finished a fight, don't have 
potions and other monsters wander around

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
* 0.6.7 on HTC Hero

Please provide any additional information below.
* my suggestion is to add some "virtual" space around each map, so our hero 
will be always on the center of the screen. it can also help with movement when 
you are near the edge of the map and hero doesn't move because touch event is 
to far from edge (say I have little big fingers :)

Same here. Some other options would be if the battle info would go to the 
bottom if your character was under it or if monsters never went above a certain 
frame height.

Good point. I have tried to keep some distance on the top of all maps when 
creating them, so that the player doesn't stay behind the combat bar when 
fighting. Are there some maps that you have seen this is a problem on? I'll 
update the spawn areas so that they are further from the map edges.

Wouldnt it be better to design the UI so you dont have to remember to keep 
distance from the edge(s) when making maps ?

It happens most in the map to the east of Crossglen, where the rabid dogs are. 
There might be some other places but that one comes to mind.

Note also you have to come from the "right" direction (means you got to go 
forward twice, not right/left and forward) to take a ladder or move between 
maps. This is irritating.
