I have a main 2D scene with a zoom in of a ship and a zoomed in space background. In a viewport inside that scene I have the spaceship zoomed out with a camera2D following it in front of a zoomed out space background. Is there any way to make it appear as if the former background is synced up with the latter so that flying the spaceship/moving the camera in the viewport causes the background in the main scene to move appropriately?
Sounds like you’ll want to use the ParallaxBackground node and leave both backgrounds you have as children of it.
Basically, you add a ParallaxBackground node to the scene, then a ParallaxLayer. If you want the background to move at the same speed as the camera, leave the ParallaxLayer’s Motion → Scale values at 1. Lower numbers will make the background move slower, as if it was farther away.
The ParallaxBackground can have N ParallaxLayers, each with its own parameters and textures.
