Moving background with character

1

what i am trying to do is get the background to move with the character

i checked out a few tutorials…and they kinda helped…but not enuf

heres the deal…i have a character that can fly…and when the character goes upward…thebackground moves down to expose sky…then eventually black space with stars…

does that make sense?

also i want the background to stop…like when the background ends…

help me please

ps…the character moves with the arrow keys…and MX2004…or MX…whicher…

try this:
make a movieclip with 2 layers.
in both put the background. Motion tween so that layer 1 is like ground to space and
layer 2 is space to ground. you might need to show hide the upper layer for this.
now use this as the background so the ground is visible. all you need to do is to “gotoAndPlay();” at the appropriate frame and show of hide the upper layer for the correct motion.

i hope you know how to fly the character.

hope this helps
