Hi. I have a problem with my project. I have a script like this:

when green flag clicked
hide
when I receive [Button Time!]

show

But for some reason it won't hide when I click The green flag
(The “show” button and the “When I receive Button Time!” are supposed to be together )

Is the broadcast being broadcasted at the same time as when you click the green flag?

no its being broadcasted when a costume number is 2, but it's way after the green flag

Hmm is it possible that you accidentally have the ghost effect at 100? Or the costume number starts at costume 2?

I can check…

Always best to share the project rather than scripts out of context.

So all we can do is guess.

The main things to check are

- sprite layer - tell it to go to front
- sprite costume - make sure it has the right costume selected
- sprite size - make sure it isn't too small
- sprite position - if it's mostly off-screen you might just not be seeing it
- hide/show state
- ghost effect - but this is cancelled when the project isn't running

What happens if you tell the sprite to say something?

okay…so, i found out the problem. My hide button is only working when it is
when green flag clicked
hide

But if i put
When green flag clicked hide.

When i receive Button time!
show

it wont work. The problem is that the hide button only doesnt work when its being hidden on the green flag and than being broadcasted to show. now thats the problem

Then it's a problem somewhere else

what should i make the forum thread name called then?

What other scripts are in the button ?

i'll make a sample project

look at my most reccent to see the problem

Hmm…

when this sprite clicked
if <(toggle) = (0)> then
show
set [toggle v] to (1)
else
hide
set [toggle v] to (0)
end

So what are we looking at? The FLIGHTATTENDANT sprite broadcasts ButtonTime which makes the sprite show.

and this to the flightatendant sprite

when green flag clicked
switch costume to [ FLIGHTATTENDENT v]

and

when green flag clicked
forever
if <(costume #) = [2]> then 
broadcast [ button time v]
else
broadcast [ nothing v]
end

Please set up the project to show the problem to avoid any confusion.
