Re: I need help with sensors
I can help you with that! Here's how you do it. You put in a script that says "If touching." You can find these in the "sensors" menu of Scratch.
Let's say I want to make a project where if a the Red Ball touches a Blue Ball, the blue ball disappears.
I would insert this script into the BLUE BALL:
When [flag] is clicked,
forever
if <touching [red ball]>
hide
---------------------------------------
Whenever you want to sense something, go to the sensors area of Scratch.

Re: I need help with sensors
Oh, you want to make a platformer, eh?

Re: I need help with sensors
I wrote a tutorial on how to make a scrolling platformer game.
See it @ http://archblogger.wordpress.com/2008/11/06/make-a-game-like-super-mario-world-demo/
Its not really that hard.

Re: I need help with sensors
not hard at all to make.
assuming you have a variable called gravity:
basic concept:
if its touching the ground, gravity is 0 and its y is changed by one
else change gravity by a negative number
then simply change y by gravity and add your key codes

I Need Help I Cant Get My Looks Into My Scripts Please Tell Me How!!!
I'd like to help...but I don't know what you are asking. Do you mean you want to load a picture into a Scratch project? If that is what you are asking, you can usually just drag the picture using your mouse and drop it onto an open Scratch project when you see the little plus sign appear. I hope that helps.
