I'm trying to stop the mouse sprites after the hammer power up is touched. I want them to stop moving for a few seconds and then make them move again. If you have any ideas let me know.

Anyone?

When you touch the hammer broadcast a message called freeze or something like that. You'll also have to create a variable to handle whether a script will run. The difficult part is all your repeat until loops that handle your movement. So you'll have to put the move condition inside each of your repeat until blocks.I put a comment tag on all the code I created as well as the new variable and broadcast. All changes are on mouse2 and hammer

I remixed with one done for you.

You should just be able to use a variable to keep track of the hammer state and then in the forever loop controlling movement wait until the variable is 0. If this is where you're using the ‘hammer’ broadcast instead try setting a variable to 1 and waiting your set time before setting it back to 0. The mouse sprites can then only move when hammer=0.

Problem is inside the forever loop are a bunch of repeat until blocks. So when the loop variable changes, it doesn't trigger until the repeat until block has completed. I thought of stopping t he script but ended up putting an if pause = no inside each of the repeat until blocks.

Thank you

how do I make my sprit to stop moving without it touching something?
