Scrolling Wall/Background Help

I'm trying to figure out how to make an endless scrolling wall similar to the City Jump Game



Is there coding that i would need to loop and image?

ok, so my problem isnt really the game itself, its more the walls to move and respawn continuously. as you can see in the video link below the walls are stationary, i want them to move with the objects as if the character is running up the wall. so i just need the wall elements to move down then respawn seemless and continuous. i followed the endless runner platform respawn and it works but its very glitchy and dont spawn close enough to each other to connect

ok thats exactly what i need and i kinda got it to work, but it still doesnt connect properly and when my actor collides with the wall it moves. ive attached my game file to show you what i mean

I can't open your game file for some reason - are you on Windows or something? :O

The trick is to not have the player collide with the actual moving actors - but to have other actors *underneath* the moving ones, with their 'movable' attribute checked to off.

Then have your player connect with those. You'll get the same effect
