i am making a scratch game for a school project.
basically, the game is "escape from school" and the character moves througha series of levels.
however i am having trouble with a very simple aspect- could someone tell me how to make it so that my character cannot go through the desks? kinda like a wall. like, when he gets to it he cannot keep going in that direction, and he must go around.

thanks,

ECA

depending on which type of movement you use, but i'm guessing you arent using velocities...
anyway, you can do it with something like

<forever if><touching[ desk
<change x by(-1 or <change y by(-1

or something in that manner

firstly, what do you mean by velocities? (im fairly new to scratch)
amd also, i basically want the character to appear to keep walking, but not go anywhere. for example like in mario games- he cant just keep walking in a straight line, he has to jump over certain objects. think like that, only without the jumping, since it's kinda in birdseye view.

sorry if im being really confusing, i just really need help- ITS DUE ON WEDNESDAY!
