second question of the day for me.
how do i make the time not start and stay at 0 but when it get a broadcast it starts and after 4 seconds i would want it to stop at 0 again.

i tried using a variable but i did somthing wrong with it and it glitches out most of the time. you can show me it with a variable but pleez explain it thoroughly.

To be honest, i do not totally know what you're asking, but here's my best guess:

when i receive [start timer v]
repeat until < (game over?) = [yes] >
reset timer
wait until < (timer) = [4] >
reset timer
end

Is this what you're looking for?

Okay, so I have ideas for a sonic game, but cant find a good engine or tutorial or ANYTHING. Any ideas?

The game will be be based on the newgrounds game "Ultimate flash sonic"

Firstly, you'll need to move your character. Left and right is easy.

forever if <key [left arrow v] pressed?>
change x by (-2) // The lower this number, the faster the character will move.
end
forever if <key [right arrow v] pressed?>
change x by (2) // The higher this number, the faster the character will move.
end

Gravity (moving up and down) is more complicated, and nearly impossible to get perfect on Scratch. My advice to you on that would be to check the wiki and, if still in doubt, download other peoples' platformers and look at their scripts.

More advanced, please. I'm not that dumb.

Okay. So you want velocities, correct? Then, you're going to need two variables: (X Velocity) and (Y Velocity)

Now, before I move on, do you have any character sensors in your game? If yes, could you tell me what it can sense?

To JH1010:
You do know that you can't put a [forever if] onto a [forever if] ?

i would like to join
  could you help me with my game and tell me the bugs and how to fix it   http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/Braeden5454/3242350

thanks

I posted this already in help, but thought it might grab someone's attention here...so here goes

I am new to Scratch so bear with me.

I am trying to create a two level quiz. The first level contains three questions, each asking the player to select the correct name of the molecular structure being presented. Each structure is a separate sprite. This part I am okay with, though I think my coding could be more efficient. But it works, so I'm good for now.

If the player makes it past the third structure, I want the background to change and say a little something about this being Level 2 and the player can earn double the points. Once the designated object is touched, I want the background to change again (different from the first level). I can't seem to get this to happen.

In total this short quiz will have 5 structures. I want the player to be able to bring up a new structure by clicking a button. I don't think my coding here is as efficient as it should be as I have three separate sprites for the same button in order to accomplish this task.

Any help or insight is greatly appreciated.

Oh noes, 180 second limit! Any ways, hope my advice helps! 

Ernali, that's a pretty nice game! 
The only thing I would say (It's really picky though...    ) is that the coins should scroll too.
But it's still an awesome game!
