Scrolling Background Speed..

Hey I placed this in a previous post but didn't manage to get any replies. So sorry in advance for asking again......

I have a run track which is a scrolling background. The coding for the movement of my track is: RunTrack.X-(dt*200*RunTrack.Speed)

I want it to gradually increase in speed so i created a global variable called 'TrackSpeed', and every 2 seconds 5 is added to the variable.

Where in the RunTrack.X-(dt*200*RunTrack.Speed) equation do i integrate the global variable?

RunTrack.X-(dt*200*(RunTrack.Speed+TrackSpeed))

or just ad every 2 second 5to RunTrack.Speed...

I guess the solution above was better.. haha

Ninjaaaad..

I tried that initially. it just makes the track move really really fast. I think because its being x(multiplied) as opposed to +(added) due to the 200* part of the coding

can u upload capx with track?

Wasn't uploading properly so i hope this helps

drag subevent "System Every 2 sec" above "System Every Tick"..

I tried that and it didn't work. Luckily i accidentally figured it out haha. The brackets were in the wrong place

Instead of putting.....

RunTrack.X-(dt*200*(RunTrack.Speed+TrackSpeed))

it was.....

RunTrack.X-(dt*(200*RunTrack.Speed+TrackSpeed))

Thank you for your help guys!
