Duplicate sprites with scripts
I have a game that I am working on that will multiply a sprite after a condition is met. For example, after you kill the first one, 2 show up. Every time you kill another one, 2 more show up. I've been reading about 1s1s projects and cant believe there isn't an easier way to do this. The sprites/scripts will all be the same, but multiplied on demand. I don't want to use the show/hide feature because that will limit the game.

Scratch 2.0 will have a clone feate in which this is possible, else you will have to use show/hide.

Either wait for 2.0, or have a limited amount and then use separate sprites with "if's" and "show's" and "hide's".

When is 2.0 due out? I saw another post from 2010 talking about using the 2.0 alpha...
The Scratch Team wants it out before next year.

esc? Escape?
he meant et cetera
to do this, you'd have a script something like this
when gf clicked forever clear set [i v] to (1) repeat (length of [xpos v]) go to x:(item (i) of [xpos v]) y:(item (i) of [ypos v]) point in direction (item (i) of [directions v]) move (speed) steps stamp if <death condition> delete (i) of [xpos v]//et al for the other lists repeat (2) add (starting x) to [xpos v] add (starting y) to [ypos v] add (starting direction) to [directions v] end end change [i v] by (1)
