Loads of Questions from a Newbie
I'm having a problem with everything bouncing. I can't figure a way to make it stop when hitting a wall except by making it bounce. Also, they shoot you even if a wall is in the way.

Re: Loads of Questions from a Newbie
Or you could use the less complicated:
<when green flag clicked>
<forever>
<if><touching[ edge
<stop script>
<end>
<end>

Re: Loads of Questions from a Newbie
To bounce when hitting a wall just make an x-velocity and/or y-velocity and multiply them by 1: Here is an example.

You never added the
<stop script>
block.

Re: Loads of Questions from a Newbie
I need it to stop the script if touching the color red, not stop everything. Also, I need the script to reactivate after it stops touching.

Re: Loads of Questions from a Newbie
How do I get my forever blocks to allow more blocks on the bottom.

You can't, because a forever block will repeat without stopping unless the red stop sign is pressed or a stop script block is put in it. There can't be anything underneath because it would never run.
