One of my students is making a game. If the two sprites touch, the game is over. We tried the repeat until loop, but he says it's not working. Can someone help with the code? Thanks in advance. Judy

[blocks]<when green flag clicked>
<forever>
<if><touching[ sprite _
<stop all> [/blocks] or <broadcast[ ___
<end>[/blocks]

That should do it, modify it if you need to.

Or this:

<when green flag clicked>
<wait( 0.2 )secsc>
<wait until>
<touching[ EndOfGameSprite ]>
<stop all>

The wait 0.2 is really just to wait until the game is initialized, it may or may not be necessary

You could replace that with "wait until not touching EndOfGameSprite" to get the desired effect in the least amount of time.

Yeah, I would say Kiley's is more effective because of no forever loops and not using "wait .2 sec"

But people who don't plan on having 100 sprites and 1000 scripts in a game should be able to use several forever loops in their projects without slowing it.

Good idea Kileymeister.
