How Keep X Constant If Moving Between Parallaxing Layers

Hello all, thanks you for looking.

I have an object that's created on layer 1 then moves its way upward through multiple parallaxing layers to layer 5.

So, Layer1 - 27/100 parallax

Layer2 - 42/100

Layer3 - 63/100

Layer4 - 100/100

Layer 5 110/100

Because the layers are moving at different speeds, their X coordinates appear at different points on the screen - so, the big question: Is there a formula to derive what the X should be in order to make the object appear to instantiate at the same point regardless of layer?

Thank you for your time.

Hi,

Check CanvasToLayerX in the manual.

Thanks so much, Spongehammer. This is exactly the direction I needed to go. I found this https://www.scirra.com/tutorials/1167/l ... er-example
