Buggy Code - Please Help - Thanks :)

I have a problem with my script in “Create a Character”.
At one point you can change the characters hair style.
Clicking the Left arrow will take you to a previous hair style and clicking the Right arrow will take you to the next hair style.
The script was working fine, but after adding another sprite, it stopped the script from working (even though no added coding was done to impact this).
Sometimes if I delete the script and simply add the same script back in it works for about 2 m ins and then stops working again.
What is happening?

Are you using variables or just next costume?

I didn't realize it was shared, sorry. I'm not sure what the problem is, It's working fine for me, no bugs.
My only suggestion is combine all of the arrow scripts into one sprite to clean up.

Have you thought about the order that your scripts get executed, and how that might affect what happens? - In particular, the broadcast receive scripts in the different sprites.

Can you see what might happen if you have “Hair Selected” set to 1 at the point you broadcast “Hair”? (-as happens if you restart the project after you got past selecting the hair.)

Hint: consider what happens if “Sprite12” starts running its “Hair” receive script before “Button4” starts its “Hair” receive script…
