How would I make a 2d parallax environment that's cyclical and seamless? (lemmy.world)

I'm trying to make something in 2d where once the player reaches the end of the level, they're back at the beginning and it just keeps going like that. I could imagine how this could be done in terms of setting the player position, but if I have a scrolling parallax background, how would I make that match up reliably?

Do you want the background to have looped back to the start after one cycle? If so, you probably have to make it repeat N times more than the foreground, and move by a factor of 1/N in comparison to the foreground. Or put another way, have 1/N times the length. That means that after one cycle, the background has moved a distance of 1/N, but also repeated exactly once.

I hope this makes sense...
