Boss Battle Doesn’t Register?
I’m making a scrolling adventure game called Adventures of Chain. You can play the demo here.
Well, I recently made the third boss.
I’ll go back a little further. Here’s how the boss system works. The game scrolls, and when a boss battle happens, it stops scrolling, so you’re moving around the screen. It also shows the variable for the sprite’s health.
The problem is, the third boss doesn’t seem to register when it’s supposed to launch the boss battle, but I can’t find anything wrong with the script.
Hopefully, my fellow Scratchers can help me.
The demo with the third boss is here.

Re: Boss Battle Doesn’t Register?
Okay, on the third boss, the event seems to be triggered at 480 * -35 yet on your script you have 480 * 0. 
Change that and make sure the other bosses aren't changing the "scrolling" variable back to on.

I tried both, and it didn’t work.

Okay, let's see if this works. Remove the block that sets the check point to 0 on the character sprite
Add this to the first boss' script
And this to the second
And this to the third
Also make sure the script has 480 * -35 as I said before.

It works! I had to make a few adjustments, but it works!
Thanks so much!
