Stupid Teacher Doesn't Know How!

My teacher just sent me an at risk letter, because I havn't been able to complete something, that she doesn't even know how to do!! So, my question is, how do you get your sprite to move AND talk (think) at the same time?

Please help!

Re: Stupid Teacher Doesn't Know How!

Hey xxmonbulkxx, please try to keep titles to your topics less insulting

and there's two ways you could do this

<when green flag clicked>
<say[ whatever you want to say
<glide( however long )secs to x sad  x position you want )y sad  y position you want

[/blocks] this method says for the sprite to say something, until it's told to say something else, this method would be your best choice if you want the sprite to say the whole way through


this is another method

<when green flag clicked>
<broadcast[ move and talk

[/blocks] this sends a message, the <when I receive[ move and talk  [/blocks] only activates when the <broadcast[ move and talk  [/blocks]block is used



anyway, next add this to your sprite

<when I receive[ move and talk
<glide( however long )secs to x sad  x position you want )y sad  y position you want

[/blocks] this just says, when it recieves move and talk, it moves

[/blocks] and then add this script

<when I receive[ move and talk
<say[ whatever you want to say ]for( however many seconds )secs>

[/blocks] this just says when it recieves move and talk, to talk for a certain amount of time

this method is better if you want the sprite to only talk part way through moving

(if this was confusing, please tell me XD)

Re: Stupid Teacher Doesn't Know How!

Oh My Goodness!! Thankyou so much! and I'll keep that in mind for the topic names. I'm sorry, at the time mum was pestering me, and I was worried about school. I was in a bit of a bad mood. SOrry.

Thankyou so much for helping me with this! I'll try it at school, and see if it works. Thankyou so much! :]

I'll try and put it simpler...

When Green Flag Clicked
broadcast [move and talk]

When I Receive [move and talk]
glide (3) secs to x (58) y (63)

When I Receive [move and talk]
say [I'm talking!] for (3) secs


I fall: It's a tragedy. You fall: It's comedy.
Hmph enjoy your fall - I get a lovely spring... without pans of new leaves.
