Randomize sprites?
Iḿ basically just starting out on scratch and have made a very simple game which i am working on to get perfected. so i was wondering if anybody could give me instructions on how to set the sprites to start in a random position each time.
also if anybody could tell me how to:
add a score eg; 1/3, 2/3
set one sprite to broadcast a message to make the other sprites move away from it
Thanks

Re: Randomize sprites?
In the numbers blocks, there is a "random () () block"
Put int the lowest and highest number you want to generate. If you put a pair of these into a "goto x: y:" block that sprite will go to a random location.

Re: Randomize sprites?
To make sprites move away from another sprite, send them a Broadcast Message. When they receive the message, you can have them Point towards the sprite you want them to run away from and them use the Move command to go a negative number of steps.
