I have a script (example shown below) that if a number key is pressed i.e 1 then it should allow another number key to be pressed, influencing the output. For example if I pressed 1 then 2 then it produce 12. but instead its taking the first number input twice which creates 11 instead. Although I don't want to rule out 11 altogether.

if <key [1 v] pressed?> then
    
change [no v] by (1)
wait until <<key [space v] pressed?> or <<key [1-9 v] pressed?> >>
if <key [1 v] pressed?> then
    change [no v] by (11)
if <key [2 v] pressed?> then
change [no v] by (12)
    
end

end

end
 

BTW if they press space, then none of the if statement would be activated and no output is produced.

when I mean no output, I mean the first number that is pressed is made the output i.e instead if 11 it would be 1

You can try this:

repeat until <key [space v] pressed?>
  If <key [1 v] pressed?> then
    Set [number v] to (join (number)(1))
  else
If <key [2 v] pressed?> then
...
else
...
end

end 
end

keep doing that until you have up to 9.

Hope this helps.

no it is still producing 11 instead of 1

when [0 v] key pressed

There are things like the one above.

that still won't help as it would just take the first key again creating 11 when I would want to create 1 or 12

just add

wait until <not<key [1 v] pressed?>>

add this before the set variable block.

and repeat for each subsequent #

still not working, can you have a look for me? http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/24454956/

looking inside sprite 11

Check this out: http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/24944283/
I deleted all the code and sprites aside from the one that pertains to your question. If you like it you can put the script in your backpack, and use it in your project.

Hope this helps, and good luck

Did you put a forever loop?

theprodigy has found me a solution
