Moving Variables

Hey there. Just a quick question, when you download a scratch game, will the variables reset back into the top right corner? In my case, (http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/Blamsox/1251680) I need the variables in a certain position, and since the game is fairly large, it will be better when downloaded. Will this affect the game and will I have to make adjustments?

Thanks - Sam.

Re: Moving Variables

Keep the variables showing when you upload, and they won't move away from where you put them, when played online/downloaded from the site  smile

Re: Moving Variables

There's a glitch where saving or uploading a project while a variable isn't showing will reset the variable's position. Follow Wolfie1996's advice and you'll be okay  smile

Yes. That happens. Or actually, you can use nXIII's hack.  smile

Doesn't that make it so you can move the variables like a sprite?

Re: Moving Variables

Yes. It attaches a variable to a sprite. So if you move the sprite, you can move the variable.
