Hiding the ScrollX
I need some help with another project. Okay I am making a simple project using scrollX. But I don't know how to hide the objects in the first place. The player can easily see the objects upcoming before it even appears to them! How can I hide the objects until the player reaches that point and then those objects will show?

A black border is one way, yes. Another way is to figure out the range of scrollx values for which each sprite should be visible, and then make a script for each that hides it when scrollx is not within that range.

Re: Hiding the ScrollX
I'm not sure what "scrollX" is, but you can control the visibility of sprites by just hiding them:
If <[abs (xposition)]>235
Hide
Else
Show
You may have to experiment with the value for how far your sprite can go efore you want it to disappear. Put the code in a forever loop - a short "wait" statement is OK in that loop too.

I think I could show the scrollX and then set a position of Scrollx to make the sprites that are involuntarily showing. Like showing scrollX, I could play it and see it, but I already posted it and am too lazy to fix it
