Try this:

when I receive Begin! ▼
reset timer
show variable time ▼
forever
set time ▼
 to round timer
if timer
 > 120
broadcast Game over ▼
 and wait

Hope that helps!

this will work ^
the problem with your script is that you're forgetting a forever loop, so it only asks itself "time>120?" once. You need a forever for it to keep asking itself the statement.

thanks guys i'll try it soon...also do you know how to make it so a sprite can collide with something and won't move through it?

That's pretty general question...the general answer is:


if key up arrow ▼
 pressed?
move 4
 steps
if touching wall ▼
?
move -4
 steps

You can replace the move block with any method of movement you want...this is not the only way to do this, but it's one of the simpler ways.

You've always got to make sure to reset your variables, or things will happen that aren't supposed to. Hope your game turns out well! smile
