Help with making a Hangman game?
Ok, so I've got a few questions with making Hangman.
1. I ask how long of a word the player wants, so how do I make the program check my list of words, and randomly select a word that's the correct length?
2. How do I add a word to the screen? I mean, I want lines that get filled in with a letter once you guess it, such as SC_A_ _ H.
If you could give me a straight answer, that would help a log. I'm VERY new to scratch, so I need straight answers to learn. THANK YOU!!

2. you can't really have a player type words but, you can make each sprite like sprite E wich looks like the letter e. and put when E key is pressed (like the letter e on the keyboard) then i'd put for the E sprite Show (unless the is wrong) if it was wrong i'd put hide i hope this makes sense to you. if not i hope someone else can!

1. you should make separate lists for different word lengths. use a broadcast block so when you click what word length you want it will tell what list to activate. i hope this helps!
