What exactly is your problem? You said you followed tutorials on how to do it but don't say what exactly is wrong with the tutorials or what you did (other than the scrolling itself).

I am trying to do scrolling on my platformer without changing my current movement code and my curent level sprite.
The videos make movement code with blocks like (CameraX,CameraY) but i just want to add a script to my current code and not replace it all.

Okay, i'll see what I can do.

If you want scrolling, make a separate script that just sets a variable for camera X to player X and another variable for camera Y to player Y, and then any time to make a go to X and Y block make sure its X - camera X and Y - camera Y. Basically just this:

when green flag clicked
forever
set [CameraX v] to (X)
set [CameraY v] to (Y)
end

go to x: ((X) - (CameraX)) y: ((Y) - (CameraY))

I forgot to mention make sure to add the go to x - scrollX and y - scrollY to the background too. also, you can make the camera smoother with some methods, and its reasonably easy to implement. but you will need to change all the regular x and y to variable versions, that way you can actually scroll. im pretty sure this is mandatory for scrolling.

oh wait i didnt see that till now, but i still think it would be the best to just use the system i suggested for ease of use later on.

for the zoom just multiply all movement and sizes by a zoom variable

for example make the position blocks

go to x: ((positionx) * (zoom)) y: ((positiony) * (zoom))

and the size would be

set size to ((size) * (zoom)) %

setting the zoom variable to 1 would make it normal size, and bigger numbers would zoom in, with smaller numbers zooming out.
I haven't done a project with zoom in a while and i didn't dig through my old code so correct me if there's any mistakes

Yes I know the bugs with the animation but I was originally thinking you could fix it… Also what scripts in particular?

the blob sprite wont touch the level just floats

ok i fixed it but i need to make it to where it dosent phase trough the ground

It usually shouldn't…
