A few quick questions for my first GM fangame

I do not have the pro edition.

Im making a game, where you're flying in a plane. I know how to make it scroll, but I dont know how to make it force scroll without taking out the abillity to move left and right. I am no so good with scripts, so could someone help me out? Either

1. Post a script for force scrolling
2. Make a way to make the scenery scroll

thanks in advance.

This should be in the help section, but I'll help you. But you need to explain a little bit better.

You need to explain it better. I don't understand what you're asking exactly.

Sure. I want a force scroll, so like even though that the screen is always going forward, but the character never goes off screen.

Whenever I try, I can get the screen to scroll, but mario keeps going off sceen

You mean the sort of thing on Doomships, right?

Oh, ok.

Yeah, exactly. So can I have help?

if the object you want to scroll with the view leaves the view, make it be inside again.

e.g. if your view id is 0, you use:

This should keep your object from moving out of the view to the left if placed in the step event or somewhere.
Experiment a little.

Odd.. Well I cant figure out how to make it always scroll, even if you keep bumping up against the side.Also, When i make him go back, it just moves backwards, and the view goes backwards too.

At this point, I would just be satisfied with a scrolling background...

Put this in an object's creation code. Note: The object in question should only exist ONCE.

You don't need a separate object, if you put that code to room's creation code.

Now when you say to put in the bg number, did you mean the name, or the number? also, where do I put the speed.

Srry Im asking so many questions. When I learned how to use gmaker, I knew next to nothing about codes. I'm learning, but I'm still not very good.

>_> You insert the speed JUST where I said you should. You take away the "insert your speed here" and put in your speed instead. Easy as that.

okay thanks. I think I got it to work.

Your best bet is just to make a moving background there's a speed option in the room background tab you can use for that. Then just use time lines or alarms (are time lines available without pro?) to create your level.
