Scratch

I know what you are doing, your scripts look like this I bet

//for terrain 1

greenflag
forever
set x to (( {   ScrollX  } + ((   480  *   0  )) ))      (i add 1 for each terrain, blahblahblah)
set y to (( {   ScrollY  } + ((   360  *   0  )) ))


//for terrain 2

greenflag
forever
set x to (( {   ScrollX  } + ((   480  *   1  )) ))      (i add 1 for each terrain, blahblahblah)
set y to (( {   ScrollY  } + ((   360  *   1  )) ))


This is not how to make a proper grid which is what you want.

For this grid, the number for the scrollX is on the left and the number for scrollY is on the right for each set of values

(0,2) (1,2) (2,2) (3,2)
(0,1) (1,1) (2,1) (3,1)
(0,0) (1,0) (2,0) (3,0)

                                                                           _
Looking at this grid, since your sprites were like _  -

Your numbers were like this:
for the first sprite, 0 for scrollX and 0 for scrollY
for the second sprite, 1 for scrollX and 1 for scrollY
for the third sprite 2 for scrollX and 2 for scrollY

Now see how those numbers line up with the grid I typed

the number beside scrollX controls the far to the side the sprite is and the number beside scrollY controls how far up the sprite is.

Here is an example of this http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/archmage/100982

Try looking at the code in the example project.

I'm just so happen to be making a verticalscroller, and it appears you have the right idea..

What I did was

Forever(acutally  the block is "repeat until")
goto x: (scrollx + 480 * 0) y: (scrolly + 360 * 0) (ground level, first platform)
next block would be 480 * 1 and 360 *1(if you were making a tiled thing like you mentioned.)

You could look at my project x^2, but it has literally like 40 sprites 'cause of the bullets, so it might take a while to download.

HELP ME WITH SCROLLING... The terrain randomly moves!!! I know you do scrollx and change x by scrollx x terrain or something

It's actually set x to scrollx*terrain, which should sort out your issues for the most part.

Hope that helps!

I need help D= i trying to make a game that scrolls x and y with more than one sprites. plz respond.

Sorry for spamming but I just need to check something...

try this <when green flag clicked><set x to( ((  <+>   480 <*>0  ))
then for the next one do <when green flag clicked><set x to( ((  <+>   480 <*>1  ))
and so on    hop it works for u

You need to put a forever block around it, else it will only go to that position when the project is started, and won't move from then on.
