I have said broadcast message ‘Rosa’ when this is supposed to happen it does not work, however when i say broadcast a different previously used message everything works. Please help I have no idea why it won't work

Thank you!

Have you a link to your project so we can see what is wrong?

Yes I've shared it, do i just copy and past a link like normal?

Yes

I have looked inside your project and I don't see no broadcast ROSA! or ROSA blocks but I do see When I Receive blocks for them.

Sorry i've changed it now to ‘I will be thinking of it in my national language- spanish’ as rosa wasnt working.. also with sprite 2, it used to change colour after the dog caught it but now it does not change since i have been messing around with the broadcasted message .

I wanted to create a game where , when the coloured bone was caught (sprite 2),it would change colour by using the code ‘change colour effect by 25’ (which used to work) and then the dog would broadcast a message stating the new colour, each time the dog caught this bone the score would go up.

Please help I don't understand why it is not working since i have changed the broadcasted message ! Thank you!

If i have understood you correctly, I have got it working with the following on Sprite2

when I receive [I will be...
forever
    
move (pick random (1) to (10)) steps
if on edge, bounce
if <touching [scratch pic]?> then
    
change [color] effect by (25)
end
end

If that isn't what you are wanting, then please say

Oh yes thank you, got it.
Also do you know how to get my dog to say a different colour each time my sprite 2 disappears ? I can't figure it out with out putting the ‘say’ in the forever section, but then obviously the dog always says the same colour!
Thank you so much!!

One way is instead of using change color effect, use costumes for Sprite2 and colour them for the different colours you want. You could then get the dog to say the colour based on what costume Sprite2 is on.

Thank you! But then how to I get my dog to say the colour in co-ordinance with the costume change ? This is the bit I just can't figure out, it's driving me mad haha.

Use the following block on Sprite2

broadcast [Red]

On the Dog Sprite scratch pic:

when I receive [Red]
say [Red] for (2) secs

Hopefully that gets you going in what you are wanting to happen.

thank you, do you know how to stop every thing when the score reaches 5 by any chance?

You could do something like this:

when green flag clicked
repeat until <(Score) = [5]>
    Play Game
end

Replace Play Game block with your own blocks.

Or

when green flag clicked
forever
    
if <(score) = [5]>  then
    
stop [all v]
end
end

I don't get it, how do you actually get messages to do stuff, like, in my case, I need to get other sprites to hide when my sprite touches a different sprite, and I'm pretty sure messages do that, or am I wrong?
