Is it possible to have a camera-like action on scratch?

The sort you find in RPG games. A camera that follows the character around, so that, when he goes left the screen goes left?

Any scripture ideas?

Yes. Scrolling could serve your need here… the code would be:

I actually meant forward scrolling, but with a camera following it.

Scratch has a 3d version i think but don't remember how good it is, nor what it is called.

Its Starlogo, and I wanted something(perhaps a script?) in Scratch.

One sec.....
Here, see the plane flies forward, and when it goes left or right, so does the screen.

What you're trying to make there is a bit hard. I don't think you'll be able to create that in Scratch  sad

Hmm... What I'd call a 3D scroller...

Something a bit like this?

Stop frequent bumping. Once every 2 days is fine.
