Scratch

I finally found it again. I disappeared for a bit.

Can I join?  Scratch says I'm new, but I'm not, I'm just new to the site.

Bump.

I think you should link to the post where the problem was resolved in the OP.

I tried but it didn't work.

JH1010 shouldnt it be

when  clicked

change y by

if

?
set 
yv ▼

1
 This should be zero.
if 
key 
up arrow ▼
 pressed?
set 
yv ▼
 to 
6
 I opted for the change y veocity by 6 block here but that works too.
change 
yv ▼
 by 
-0.25
 This should not be in this loop because it would lower you through the ground. Also, I forgot the minus in my example.

to the post above?
Please fix...

Fixed and explained. Also, if you highlight the yellow stuff it will appear in google toolbar so you can read the end of it.

The link to the solution in OP.

It kept linking to the last post, then kept linking to the first post.

Did you use this code?

Code:

[url=http://scratch.mit.edu/forums/viewtopic.php?pid=1393352#p1393352]Gravity/Jumping[/url]

Thanks this worked.

Having a problem with playing a sound when one sprite touches another. The code for the whole program is quite lengthy, but the part plays the sound is rather simple:

when space key pressed
show
go to x:25 y:25
forever
move 5 steps
if on edge bounce
if touching sprite 1
play sound 
cricket
 until done
if touching sprite 7
go to sprite 6
if touching sprite 6
go to sprite 7
end forever loop
When space key pressed
forever
if touching sprite 1
hide
wait 1 sec
show
end forever loop

When I run the script, the sprite will always hide at the appropriate time, but it will often not play the cricket sound.  Most of the time it does, but sometimes it doesn't.  Is it because there are too many other scripts that are all being executed at the same time?  Or is it because the hide block interferes with the cricket sound block?  Any help would be appreciated.

I would exchange hide with set ghost to 100 and show with set ghost to 0.

when  clicked
forever
if 
touching 
sprite1 ▼
?
set 
ghost
 effect to 
100
hide
else
set 
ghost
 effect to 
0
show

I fixed your scratchblocks code 

Now, you could do what Jodymoses said, but here's another solution:

when 
space ▼
 key pressed
show
go to x: 
25
 y: 
25
forever
move 
5
 steps
if on edge, bounce
if 
touching 
sprite1 ▼
?
broadcast 
hide ▼
play sound 
cricket ▼
 until done
if 
touching 
sprite7 ▼
?
go to 
sprite6 ▼
if 
touching 
sprite6 ▼
?
go to 
sprite7 ▼

when i receive 
hide ▼
hide
wait 
1
 secs
show

Yep 'cos ghost 100 just makes it invisible but not inactive, while hide makes it inactive

Actually, hide makes it unable to sense/be sensed, but it can move.

Great,  thanks for the solutions.  BTW, where can I find a list of commands used in the scratchblocks code?
