Maybe this question has already been answered, but what does it mean when a script is supposed to be running, but it's outlined in red instead of white?

An error occurred when that script was processed. Examples:

((0) / (0))
hide //on stage
[sqrt v] of (-1)

As Jontmy00 points out above, trying to divide by zero is one of the most common reasons that a script will go red and stop. Taking the square root of a negative number will also cause it. These operations aren't defined in normal mathematical calculations and Scratch doesn't care for them. Do you have a script that might be doing either of those things?

I don't think so. I can't tell you exactly what it is, as I'm creating it for school but class is on Monday. It mostly has a lot of

if <touching Sprite1>
broadcast

and that sort of stuff. I suspected it meant that something was going wrong, but I wasn't completely sure.
