script doesn't execute while clicking and dragging sprite
I made an extremely simple game where the user moves a balloon around and tries to avoid an arrow that is using <point towards> and <move(1) step> to chase it. Unfortunately, the balloon script <if touching (arrow)><play sound(pop)> doesn't seem to execute while the user is clicking and dragging the balloon which is exactly what I expect them to do. The balloon only pops if the user releases the mouse button while the arrow is touching the balloon. The arrow script keeps executing with no problem. Please tell me there's an easy workaround.
Let me know if I should hazard scratchblocks to illustrate the code more precisely. I shared the project as SaveTheBalloon and tagged it as a game but cant find it on the MIT Scratch website.

Re: script doesn't execute while clicking and dragging sprite
Your project is here, and the problem is this:
Offline in the Scratch editor, you can always click and drag things. Click the lock icon at the top center of the editor, and it is now draggable!!
Oh, and to find your projects, go to your "My stuff" page. Yours is here.

Thanks 7734f--I never would have figured that out myself. Now I have the interesting situation where the program works on the website but not in my editor.
Your game is pretty cool.

Thanks! Yeah, it took me a while to figure it out when I was a new Scratcher.
