I'm coding a simple game, where the object is to touch the blue square with the yellow circle, while avoiding the red circle.

I tried to use the broadcast message script to make my “level 1” sprite change costumes so that it says “level complete”.

As you can see, I managed to get the blue sprite (sprite 2) to change costumes, but I can't get the “level 1” (sprite 4) to change. Can anyone tell me what the problem with my script is? I tried putting the broadcast message on sprite 1, and the message received block on sprite 4 - which is the one I want to change.

Thanks!

Seems like it's working…

Phoenix, I'm trying to get the “level 1” (sprite 4) sprite in the top right to change to “level complete” when the sprite 1 touches sprite 3.

I've succeeded in getting sprite 3 to change (as you noticed), but not sprite 4.

(also noticed a mistake in my first post, the blue sprite is sprite 3, not sprite 2

The only broadcast of message1 I can see is not in a loop so it runs that code immediately after the green flag is clicked but a split second later it is finished. So unless sprite1 is touching sprite3 at the start it won't work. You need something like a forever loop or a wait until touching blue.

Thanks deck26, the forever loop fixed it!

Use

broadcast [message1 v]

and use

when I receive [message1 v]

On other sprite. If you want to wait until receive done, use this block:

broadcast [message1 v] and wait
