Usage

Before starting, you must create the following Custom Properties in AGS Editor, for usage with Objects. Just click on Properties [...] and on the Edit Custom Properties screen, click on Edit Schema ... button, and add the two properties below:

• PxPos:

  • Name: PxPos
  • Description: Object's horizontal parallax
  • Type: Number
  • Default Value: 0

• PyPos:

  • Name: PyPos
  • Description: Object's vertical parallax
  • Type: Number
  • Default Value: 0

The number defined on Px or Py will be divided by 100 and used to increase the scrolling. An object with Px and Py 0 is scrolled normally, an object with Px and Py 100 will be fixed on the screen despite camera movement.
