Hi i know there is probably a obvious answer but i can't figure it out for the life of me! I would love some advice on ways to move the character forever.
Thank you for reading. ps i haven't posted anything yet.

Hi and welcome to scratch!
There are a few options you could use. You can either change x and y positions of a sprite, or use the move block.
You should stick to the move block for now. Simply, put it in a forever loop.

when green flag clicked
forever
move (5) steps//speed
end

By default, the sprite will be moving to the right side of the screen, so you can use a point in direction block to change direction.

point in direction (0 v)

0 = Up
180 = down
90 = Right
-90 = Left

And if you want the sprite to only turn left-right (not spin around), use the set rotation style block.

set rotation style [left-right v]

So, once you have reached one end, say the left most one, simply reset the position.
so, the scripts would be:

when green flag clicked
go to x: (-240) y: (0)//left edge
forever
move (5) steps
if <(x position) > [240]> then
set x to (-240)
end
end

Good luck and scratch on!

Thank you that is really helpful! i can't wait to try the scripts: out!, and ps love your profile picture
