Re: How Do You Make A Scrolling Map?
Well, you have two options:
1) Use the super sized sprite hack.
2) Make numerous sprites that keep the same distance relative to each other.
For number one, right click the stage, and select 'grab screen region for new sprite.'
Now, select the whole screen, and edit this huge sprite.
You can see an example of this here:

For option #2, you simply simulate the above, only with multiple sprites.

Re: How Do You Make A Scrolling Map?
I'm not sure how you do it the right way, but I just made a sprite the size of the screen, made it as large as possible, and then added another copy of that sprite to the project, and then I made a sensor that moved along with the backgrounds that if your character touched would sen you back to the beginning of the loop.

Re: How Do You Make A Scrolling Map?
Depends. What method do you want to use?
-The massive 10000% size sprite glitch
-The bigger than screen sprite glitch
-The stamp method
-The multiple sprite method
-The 4 sprite method
-The bigger than screen 10000% size method

Re: How Do You Make A Scrolling Map?
Whatever works is fine, probably.

Re: How Do You Make A Scrolling Map?
Look for a project called Box World by fireball123, or the scroller demo by archmage. The scrolling in those two programs is the best I could find on the site, so far.

I found Box World, but it was titled "Scrolling Adventure". 
As for archmage's project, I think he's made many scrolling demos...
