Re: "When I receive..."?

The when I receive block is a way to send signals to different sprite(s).

The block cannot work without the Broadcast block, which broadcasts a message which the when I receive block receives and starts the scripts under it going.

I stink at explaining things, so sorry if you can't understand what I'm saying.


Goodbye 1.4. I'll always remember you and treasure your awesomeness in my heart.

Re: "When I receive..."?

The block that triggers this starting block:

broadcast [message1 v]
The "message1" corresponds with this block:
When I receive [message1 v]
You can change "message1" to a different name to suit your needs.

Hope this helped a little  smile
