I need .... help

I need help making a script for a BMTron type game.
If you don't know what BMTron is, google it, play it then come back and help me.
My scripts so far suck, and the people in Scratch chat won't help me
*Cough* Boi *cough cough* Rhy *cough*

Yeah, been here a while.
Haven't actually been using the program all that much, though.
The last time I even opened it was almost six months ago

Re: I need .... help

so you're finally finishing that thing. The problem is, since you have a forever without stop scripts, the thing will go on forever.

blade is a newbie when it comes to programming, you need to explain more.

Re: I need .... help

Blade-Edge, upload it, I'll download it, and I'll fix it. Then you can download it, and you can continue working. I see the problem, but I don't know how to explain... Well, I don't know how to explain to non-programmers, I guess. Just upload it, send me a link, and I'll do the rest.

Re: I need .... help

Yeah, the problem is that you have 4 forever scripts. Every one of them will run and cancel each other out.

Re: I need .... help

Juststickman and The-Whiz are right. The forever scripts will never stop running, and the other ones will never get a chance to run.

Re: I need .... help

Okay, so get rid of the forever scripts? I just needed to know how I would make it move in whatever direction the arrow key just pressed was in, without stopping (like bmtron) and to switch costumes while doing so

Just put the parts with the forever scripts in their own scripts and things should work fine. Split the scripts up into separate scripts.

Re: I need .... help

Or you could do something like

[when [up arrow] pressed]
[set direction to [0]]

[when flag clicked]
[forever]
[][move 2 steps]
[/forever]

And have the same first script for all three other arrow keys.

Does that work for what you want to do?  hmm  Oh, and the last "if" bit... I added that in, so that the slime could kind of "breath" while stationary... but that bit's not necessary  smile
