Project suddenly doesn't work!

I've been working on a new project- a scratch version of a telephone- and I added a new sprite, added scripts on all the others to deal with it, and then BOOM! Now nothing works, and I'm kinda sad cos it was my best project.

Any ideas?

Y'know, I had the same problem, and sometimes I think that a project can just overload and if you click save and try it, sometimes it works.

I don't really understand what you mean ...

Re: Project suddenly doesn't work!

Can you explain in more detail what it was? It could very well have been your coding; if there were any variables changed it might have made the project do something a bit weird as a result.

I'll give you a script:

[blocks]<when green flag clicked>
<show>[/blocks]

and then it wouldn't show.

Maybe the ghost effect is set to a high number?
Maybe another script on that sprite is hiding it at the same time?

This may seem obvious, but are you sure you're clicking the green flag? If you are, just check over your scripts because I'm pretty sure it's a problem with your scripting  smile

Re: Project suddenly doesn't work!

My gosh this is seeming really farfetched isn't it!

I click the green flag loads of times, and yes one of my scripts is above! Is that a problem? (sorry not being sarcastic!)

What do you mean by a script being above?

Re: Project suddenly doesn't work!

If you scroll upwards, I've put an example of one of my scripts that doesn't work!

Re: Project suddenly doesn't work!

In case you were interested, I now know why it didn't work. One of the images that was in the background had moved to the front, and so you couldn't see any of the images that were in the front.

I made it again, as it wasn't going to work.

If you would like to view my project, then it's called Telephone Simulation.
