My "if" button is not working!!!
When I try to make my game, Pacman, I try to make pacman eat the white circles so he turns blue so he can eat the ghosts, but for some directions it doesn't work but I did it right!!? Like right or left, when I make him go right, I eat a circle, but he stays yellow! When I try a different one, it works! WHAT DO I DO!!!!! (Special 1 is the circle he eats to turn blue)
The blocks I used:
[blocks] <when[right arrow]key pressed>
<point in direction(90 degrees)
<move(3)steps>
<if><touching[special1]
-<change{change}by(1000)
<switch to costume[blue pacman]
<wait(15)secs>
<switch to costume[yellow pacman]
[/blocks]
This is what I did for all the specials (special1,2,3,and 4) and it only worked for one or two. (for every direction!) SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME!!!! I DON'T KNOW WHAT'S WRONG!!!

Did you use color sensing for the ghosts to detect Pacman when he's blue?

Do the "special" dots have a script that hides them if they're touching Pac-man? If so, then they're probably hiding before your script can sense the contact. Try putting an empty repeat 1 block before the part of the script that hides the dots.
