  So I think you would use a kind of 'shop'? Where people can choose and change there skins or backgrounds.

  Lets assume that the player needs to have a 100 points in order to unlock and choose the second skin of it's character.

  

  When you want the background to change you have two options I think.

  Either use tiled backgrounds, and change the opacity of one another.

  

  Or use a sprite as background, and use the same technique used for swapping animations with the character.

  

  Hope this helps.

  Hey!

  As you figured out, there is no way to 'animate' your tiled background.

  (Just save the picture, it's too big..)

  

  Because I can't post links on the forum, I have screenshotted how I fixed the problem.Basically was happens is when woodFloor1 it's pivot point hits 0x, it spawns back to 640x (Just multiply the screen width.)

  With a bullet behavoir it looks like it's moving, and because the same tiled background (woodFloor2) follows, it looks like it's being animated.

  There is a lot of room for improvement though with this kind of method. For some reason I got sometimes some white gaps between the two. (Maybe add a third backgound, or put the tiled background closer together.

  Hope this helps!

  Hi there!

  First time posting here! Have been using Construct 2 for almost a year now. Made some entertainment games with it. (Top down shooter/roguelike, endless runner ect.)

  Has been really fun, and now I am looking into serious gaming more.

  I had a really cool idea for a math calculation game for the appstore, here is the example I made for you guys:

  

  Just save it, it's too big!

  Only problems is the random math calculations. It should first make a calculation, and then delete the -,+,/ or x.

  This caculation Construct 2 would make can't be a complicated one at first. (Maybe for an easy level just have calculations that go till 10, and a normal one till a 100.)

  I've done some crazy stuff with Construct 2, but this is too complicated for me, and there are NO tutorials for this kind of thing.

  I really hope somebody could help me out.

  Thank you so much!
