So, I'm trying to make a platformer. I'm trying to make it so that I can use just one color to switch to multiple different  levels. Here's my current scripts for portals/level-changing:
(Sprite's script)

when flag clicked
forever
 if <touching color [#FFFFFF]?>
  broadcast level1
 end

(Stage's script)

when i receive [level 1 v]
switch to background [background 2 v]

However, this script only lets the game only have one level, as if i made the script for Sprite 3 somewhat like this:

if <touching color [#FFFFFF]?>
 broadcast [level1 v]
 broadcast [level2 v]
end

It would just change to level 2, right?

I know that you could make multiple sprites to change the levels, but the last time I used that, I somehow screwed something up, and then the whole game was broken (skipping levels, spawning in the wrong place, etc.). So I'd rather not have that happen.

If anyone can help, please reply.

Fixed; anyway, I'll be back with an answer tomorrow.

When gf clicked
set [level] to (1)
forever
 if <touching color>
  change [level] by (1)
 end
 Set BG to (level)
end

Never mind, I figured out what BG means.

@7734f: It means background.

@xlk: I don't understand, do you mean:

when gf clicked
switch to background [level1]
forever
   if <touching color etc.>
     switch to background [level2]
end

Or do you just do the exact thing shown here?

When the sprite touches the color:

forever
 if <touching color [#00FF00]?>
  broadcast [next level v]
  wait until <not (touching color [#FFFFFF]?)>//Added
 end

The stage receives the message:

When I receive [next level v]

And then changes it's background:

When I receive [next level v]
next background

Does that make sense?
The sprite that is touching the color broadcasts a message, the stage receives the message, and goes to the next background.

Hope that helped!

Fixed, and you're probably going to want a [wait until <not (touching color[color]?)>] block as well to prevent skipping over multiple levels.
