so how do i make auto scroll actually work? i mean i followed most tutorials im aware you have to change the levels size and camera a couple of times and i know it only works in section 1 for some reason but somehow every time i try i get 1 of 3 results

1:screen doesn't autoscroll at all

2:screen starts moving weirdly and everything stops working

3:screen is already at the very end of section.

if someone knows what the fudge is happening please tell me i'd really appreciate it!

So I don't know how to make a level start autoscrolling in other sections, I only know how to make it start autoscrolling in the Level - Start event so if someone could add on to this, that'd be great. Anyway,

To auto scroll the level (on PGE at least), you have to click the Level Start event, and there should a button named "Autoscroll Section" and click it. Towards the right of Section is where you can change where it autoscrolls. And of course you can change to horizontal speed and vertical Speed. After that, click the Level Start event, click Section Settings, Click the Define new button, and then capture. Set the size to the part of the level you want to scroll and then press the checkmark, and assuming I explained everything right it should scroll the screen.
