You can either turn the movable in the physics of the actor or just warp the actor like in this video: http://gshelper.com/how-to-make-moving-clouds-with-out-using-wrap-in-gamesalad-tutorials-video/

what i meant is like move the background in games like jetpack, where it is not restricted to the screen

If your making a game similar to this video i would have all the backgrounds still and move the hero because moving large actors like backgrounds will tear them showing the scene background colour behind.



This has a large scene and resets the hero back to the start so you could have different background images and swap them out when the hero reaches the end of the scene.
