Can anyone help me? I'm trying to make a sprite die. How do I do this?

What do you mean?
Just make it turn 90 degrees right. smile

Depends on what you mean.

You might have it set up to respond to a Broadcast message and have it change to a "dead" costume.

when I receive [Sprite Dies v]
switch to costume [Dead v]
turn cw (90) degrees

You might also have to find a way to stop any motion that the sprite might be doing. That can be hard...there's no way to interrupt a Glide block that I have found. But if you have motion set up with a Repeat block of some sort, you might set a variable that stops that loop.

Quite simple, really.

If you want it to flicker and then disappear:

when gf clicked
show
wait until <(lives)=[0]>
repeat (10)
hide
wait (0.1) secs
show
wait (0.1) secs
end
hide

If you want it to fall down:

when gf clicked
show
point in direction (90)
switch to costume [Alive v]
wait until <(lives)=[0]>
turn cw (90) degrees
switch to costume [Dead v]

I am making a asteroid dodge game. how can a sprite die by color? this is what I tried but didn't work. if touching color brown, switch to costume 2 [dead].

Fixed your code:

if (touching color [brown]?)
 switch to costume [Dead v]
end

Anyway, is there some way you could give me a copy of your project to look at, or some of the scripts other than what you've said so far? It would be very helpful if you did because I can't draw any conclusions from what your just telling me. Sorry.

hide

is a good block.

Did you snap a forever block around it?

Please refrain from spamming un-needed smilies. It clutters up the topic.
