I have this script for my new game:

when I receive [time attack v]
forever
if <[time left]is bigger than(0)>
set [clicks per second v] to [[current button presses]/[(25)-[time left]]]
end

This doesn't work and is highlighted in red instead of the usual white. If anybody could tell my why and/or the workaround it would be much appreciated.

Also, could someone fix my forum scratchblocks?

The math is probably wrong. Try redoing the formula for the math!

(I think it should be:)

((current button presses)/(time left)-[25])
[This formula is probably wrong :P]

Fixed. Because 25 - time left may result in zero, deciding by zero causes an error so it is red and not white.

Thank you this was useful.

Yea, the red highlight happens when the Scratch blocks are incapable of doing what you "asked" them to do. For example, 0/0, or if you make a variable count up or down by x , it will eventually reach the limt and crash.
