Scrolling Backgrounds

Hi:

I'm just looking to do a simple scrolling background that tiles. The closest info I have found is the platformer template where the background movement seems to be driven by the animated character. If anyone can point me toward more info on how to make this work I'd appreciate it.

    not sure what your looking for exactly but type in scrolling in the search bar in gamesalad there's one with moving scenery and mountains and stuff...implementing is not too difficult ...a simple way is to move it from left to right destroying it when it moves off screen and recreating it on the otherside.

    Thanks, directing me to GS's search was helpful. I am trying to do an adventure game/platformer scrolling background that is driven by a characters movement. So that while a character walks right, the background scrolls left.

    Constrain the characters X and Y position to two attributes. Then constrain the background to the middle of the scene minus the x or y position of the character.
