how do you make it so that when you are in water, gravity decreases, and you can swim and float, and sink, only when touching water

First, make a variable called Yvelocity.
[blocks]
<{ Yvelocity }>
[/blocks]
Then put this script into the sprite you want to swim:
[blocks]
<when green flag clicked>
<forever if><touching color[ Water's Colour ]
<change y by( <{ Yvelocity }>
<end>
[/blocks]
Then put also:
[blocks]
<when green flag clicked>
<forever if><touching color[ Water's Colour ]
<if><key[ Up arrow ]pressed?>
<change{ Yvelocity }by( 0.3 (can be changed)
<end>
<if><key[ Down Arrow ]pressed?>
<change{ Yvelocity }by( -0.3 (can be changed)
<end>
<end>
[/blocks]
Also, put:
[blocks]
<when green flag clicked>
<forever if><touching color[ Water's colour ]
<change{ Yvelocity }by( -0.1 (can be changed)
<end>

How do you make a bike so that when you are going up the hill it points up, and when you are on the hill but not moving, it goes down?

I'm not sure that would be possible. Maybe it would be, but I'm not sure. I'll look into it.
EDIT: Actually, do you already have your direction changing scripts? If you had them, then I'd be able to show you, otherwise...

Sorry, then. I don't know.

You mean for it to say hello without the speech bubble? If that is what you're aiming at, no, otherwise, please explain your question more clearly.

Not using the Say or Think blocks. The best way to do this is to create another sprite that has the text you want to display, then control it with messages to set it to the right costume and show it. You can have many messages displayed with one sprite by using different costumes.

Yes, I did want speech without the speech bubble. Costumes do work but for what I am trying to do it would take around 20 costumes so I guess I will just have to suffer with the speech bubble for now. Thanks for your help.

I suppose you could use broadcasts and a separate sprite, but that may take a while.
