How do we add new backdrops?
I want to create two backdrops with different background image and sprites. But whenever I add a new backdrop, the sprites of the previous one appear on the screen. I dont want to use them but if I remove/hide them, they get deleted from the previous backdrop too.
Is it possible to do what I want? Can anyone suggest a different method to achieve this.
Basically what I mean by 2 different scenes is that they aren't of the same place. Two different events are happening at different locations with different people. I can't use the same backdrops or sprites for the 2nd one.
Link to my Project: http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/20751134/ - This is scene 1
Scene 2 involves other actions, which Im still not sure of.

Already given you the blocks. It's up to you to decide what happens. It can't really be much clearer; decide what you want to happen when the green flag is clicked and when a backdrop is changed and add a show or hide block to that event block. xoldier1337 has made a good example.
