Could you help me? I am working on my Animal Crossing game, but I don't know how to make a loading screen.

If u want to make a loading bar:

If u want to make a loading animation (some might be harder than others):

I'm sorry, but I meant how it knows when it is loading.

You could do a brodcast

You could just not put one in because no one likes loading screens we all know that

Please move this to Help With Scripts. I'll ask an ST to move this for you. ^-^

Also, I don't understand why you'd need to load. You can a) use a fake loading screen (change the backdrop for a certain number of seconds) or b) use broadcasts, which will call when the teleporter is touched and when the island is set up.

@rayli1123, I don't know what you mean.

Maybe you can like do this


Make a point in direction block but where it keeps turning? Because I don't really know bec Im trying to figure out how

The answer is actually very simple.
An easy method is to use a ‘loading?’ variable. Set the variable to ‘0’ at the start of the project, and change it to ‘1’ when the custom block starts, and reset it to ‘0’ when it ends. Another sprite could check if ‘loading?’ = ‘1’ and if it does, then it would show. If the variable is 0, then the project is not loading and the loading screen can hide. I frequently use this in my projects.

There are many other ways to do it, but this might be the simplest.

If you want a loading animation, you can give the loading screen multiple costumes and have it cycle through those when the project is loading. If you want a loading bar, then the easiest way would be to have a pen-based load screen.
