How-To Display a HUD on a Scrolling Scene in Gamesalad

[kgwalksonwater]

great help, thank you sir

I have the same problem, I think. If I UNTICK the Scrollable box, for that top HUD layer, my HUD elements simply disappear. If I leave Scrollable TICKED, they do appear, but scroll off the screen as soon as I move?

My scene is 2048x2048, with a large background image, could that be a problem?

It doesn't seem to be a front/back layer issue. I can't figure it out! Please help. :)

@muzboz I figured it out. You HAVE to place the camera in the bottom left of your scene, (even if your player character begins elsewhere in the scene, such as in the middle), and set up all your HUD elements there at the bottom left, within that camera size. Then, when the game beings, the camera snaps to the player, but all HUD elements appear correctly, based on that bottom-left HUD camera setup.

When i uncheck the "HUD" layer from scrollable to unscrollable, my life and score for my game no longer appear. I am not sure what to do, I have tried different things to try to fix it before i posted this comment. Any Ideas?

Is there a way to keep the hud the same size and position while zooming the camera in our out?
