i'm making a fnaf fan game and one of the things thats bugging me is that my camera sprite won't show. it used to, but once i added the scripts preventing it from showing before the camera thing is up, it wouldn't show at all! and i can't find the script that's making it disappear whenever i make it go up! can someone help me please???

Please identify/share the project.

example script:

when [3 v] key pressed
repeat (50)
if <(cams) = [Down]> then
 
hide

else
if <(power) < [0]> then
play sound [Buzz.mp3 v] until done
 
else
set [cam # v] to [3]
go to front
show
switch costume to [static v]
wait (0.1) secs
change [ ghost v] effect by (10)
wait (0.1) secs
change [ ghost v] effect by (10)
wait (0.1) secs
change [ ghost v] effect by (5)
wait (0.1) secs
clear graphic effects
wait (0.1) secs
switch costume to [Art room cam 3 v]
if <(Dave's location) = [3]> then
broadcast [dave art v] 

else
broadcast [dave hide v]
if <(the bat location) = [3]> then
broadcast [bat art v] 

else
broadcast [bat hide v]
if <(jay's location) = [3]> then
broadcast [jay art v] 

else
broadcast [jay hide v]
end
end
end
end

i can't share it cause it's unfinished and the release date is later in the week, but it's called a Night at the Jay's Plate, and that example script is a copy of one from the cam sprite on the project.

I haven't seen the project, so I wouldn't know for sure, but here are some tips to try:

• Check the order of the layers the sprites are in
  

• Check the ghost effect(if you have one)
  

• Check to see if the sprite is hidden before the start of the project
  

These are my tips. Like I said, they may not be completely accurate because I haven't seen the project itself, but I hope this helps.

thanks, i guess, but i've already tried all of these

Have you checked the values of your variables - the camera will only show if power is 0 or more and cams is not Down? The loop is repeating 50 times so the cumulative ghost effect is quickly going to reach 100! Try removing the ghost effect blocks or reducing the values and make sure the ghosting is cancelled initially.

Please give us the link of the unshared project. We could view it in the scratch 3 preview

build an

show

block in

If it doesn't show when you combine all of these run manually (with nothing else running) and you've checked the costume is centred properly (and you've selected the right costume) you're going to have to share!

show
clear graphic effects
go to x: (0) y: (0)
set size to (100) %
go to front
