Yes. Although with a different speed (I think about vertical scrolling speed /2 or /4).

you need to move them around as well, which will be almost like generating a new copper list each frame.
Too bad. That's very expensive. Does Turrican do it the same way?

with regards to the bitplane pointers, writing the modulos on each scanline and then updating those instead might save some (presuming your bitplanes are below 32k each).
The bitmaps are quite large (IIRC 352x288x5) and double buffered. Doesn't fit.
