Re: Help!!

I think this belongs in All About Scratch.

There are multiple ways you could do this.  Probably the easiest to understand for a beginner is:
[blocks]
<when[ whatever key you want ]key pressed>
<switch to costume[ that character's costume
[/blocks]
Note: that only works if each character only uses one costume.  If they each use more than one costume, it's more complicated.

Make a script for each character, switching to the appropiate costume.
