Changing backgrounds
How can I make the change of background dependant on what the sprites are doing? How do I change the background when two sprites touch?

Re: Changing backgrounds
Or, try this.
(Sprite)
when gf clicked forever if <touching color [#00FF00]?>//or any other color broadcast [touching v] stop script endOR
when gf clicked forever if <touching [sprite2 v]?>//or any other sprite broadcast [touching v] stop script end(Background)
when gf clicked switch to background [background1 v] when I receive [touching v] switch to background [background2 v]

Re: Changing backgrounds
Your scripting was sound trinary, but using sprite instead of color sensing normally works best. The following would show you that you can see if it is touching the other sprite and not the color, this helps if you want something else that color, then you don't have to worry. If you only want this to happen when a certain part is being touched, then you would use color, otherwise, this should work best.
when gf clicked if <touching [sprite 2 v]?> broadcast [background2 v]You will also need the script for the stage from trinary's post to make this work.

Re: Changing backgrounds
If you want a smoother action I would use variables.
[scratchblocks]
when gf clicked
forever
switch to background [backroundnumber] //insert the variable block there.
end
when gf clicked
forever if <touching [othersprite v]>
Set backroundnumber to (2) //this will make you switch to backround two.
end

Re: Changing backgrounds
i think forever if would make the background always set to 2 if touching other sprite.
i would always use
[scratchblocks]
forever
if
[/scractchblocks]

Re: Changing backgrounds
EXAMPLE:
Let's say you have a project with 3 sprites, and the background has 3 costumes. Let's say you want it so that if Sprite1 is touching Sprite2, the stage needs to switch to background2. If Sprite1 is touching Sprite3, the stage needs to switch to background3. If Sprite1 is not touching Sprite2 or Sprite3, the stage needs to switch to background1. To achieve this, you would use these scripts:
Sprite1:
when gf clicked
forever
if <touching [Sprite2 v]?>
broadcast [bg2 v]
wait until <not <touching [Sprite2 v]?>>
else
if <touching [Sprite3 v]?>
broadcast [bg3 v]
wait until <not <touching [Sprite3 v]?>>
else
broadcast [bg1 v]
wait until <<touching [Sprite2 v]?> or <touching [Sprite3 v]?>>
end
end
end
Stage:when gf clicked switch to costume [background1 v]
when I receive [bg1 v] switch to background [background1 v]
when I receive [bg2 v] switch to background [background2 v]
when I receive [bg3 v] switch to background [background3 v]Or, if you like, you can use variables:
Sprite1:
when gf clicked
forever
if <touching [Sprite2 v]?>
set [bg v] to [2]
wait until <not <touching [Sprite2 v]?>>
else
if <touching [Sprite3 v]?>
set [bg v] to [3]
wait until <not <touching [Sprite3 v]?>>
else
set [bg v] to [1]
wait until <<touching [Sprite2 v]?> or <touching [Sprite3 v]?>>
end
end
end
Stage:
when gf clicked
set [bg v] to [1]
forever
if <(bg) = [2]>
switch to background [background2 v]
wait until <not <(bg) = [2]>>
else
if <(bg) = [3]>
switch to background [background3 v]
wait until <not <(bg) = [3]>>
else
switch to background [background1 v]
wait until <not <(bg) = [1]>>
end
end
end
