How to make Sprites scroll with the background image that are inside Scroll View?

Question

I'm new in Unity, so I hope you guys can help. I'm developing a 2D-game for Android device, on the scene I have a huge background image inside Scroll View (UI - Scroll View).

Next, I created new empty Game Object "Players", attached to it "Players script" and added "Sprite Renderer" component.

From the Sprites I created two prefabs - housePrefab and dogPrefab. Inside "Players script" I have the following code:

[SerializeField] GameObject housePrefab;
[SerializeField] GameObject dogPrefab;

void Start()
{
var houseXPos = 1.41f;
var houseYPos = 2.63f;

var dogXPos = -0.41f;
var dogYPos = 2.63f;

GameObject house = Instantiate(housePrefab, transform.position = new Vector2(houseXPos, houseYPos), Quaternion.identity) as GameObject;
GameObject dog = Instantiate(dogPrefab, transform.position = new Vector2(dogXPos, dogYPos), Quaternion.identity) as GameObject;
}

After I run game both Sprites appears on the screen (as I expected). The problem occurs when I Scroll background image, both sprites stay in the same position under scrolling. In other words sprites not scrolling with the background image.

As far as I understand, the Sprites needs to be added to the background image, but I don’t know how to do it. How to make Sprites scroll with the background image?

Thanks to all in advance.

Answer 1

you back-Ground is a UI in canvas but you playing objects are in the scene and not dependent. your approach is wrong.

if you need a background for you game, just make a simple 2d object with spriteRenderer and scale it to fill the camera view. then make it child of the camera(drag in hierarchi and drop on camera)

Then you can define any behaviour for your characters.
