How do I swap out TiledBackground image

what's the best way to change a rather large tiledBackground (10,000x10,000) image in the game depending on the level.

So level 1 will have one repeating background image, and level 2 will have a different one etc...

I could just make multiple objects, but it seems like I should be able to swap out the image tile to the one object. Has anyone done this?

I am using parallax.

thanks in advance..

I don't think you can - I suggest you just have several tiled backgrounds all set at (-10,-10) with a size set to (1,1) then just resize the required background up to what you want as required (and also resize the no longer background back to (1,1)

you can add them to your project files, and load them using "load from url" action. https://www.scirra.com/tutorials/328/us ... onstruct-2

megatronx I looked at load from url, but it wants a web address.. how do you load a local file? like for previewing or on dropbox?

RamPackWobble yeah this is what I was going to do, or since I have an unbound layout I would just make the no longer bkgrd invisible. I have 5 different background, was just look for an efficient way to do it.

You didn't read the tutorial, did you?

Thanks megatronix - I forgot all about "load from url".

megatronx nope, just looked at the manual.. didn't realize your link was to a tut.. thanks!

For anyone that needs to know...

Select Projects Bar, right-click "File" then Import files and select your images you want to use

then reference those filenames where the URL would go..

ACTION:

BackgroundTile -> LoadImageFromURL ( choose("image1.png", "image2.png")
