How to sense when a sprite is a certain costume.

I'm new to scratch and Im trying to make a game where it can sense what costume the sprite is, and I havent found a solution on it. If anyone knows how that would be very much appreciated!

How to sense when a sprite is a certain costume.

Use this block:

(costume [name v]::looks)

It can be set to either name or number. The block would then output the current costume of the sprite/clone it is in.

If you want to know of the costume from a different sprite, use this block:

([costume name v] of [Sprite1 v])

Hi! Welcome to Scratch!
To sense or detect what costume a sprite is on, Scratch actually already added
a block for you to do that.

You can use :
(costume (name v) :: looks
for a sprite

And :
(backdrop (name v) :: looks
for a backdrop!

Both of the block is on the look's block.
Thanks!

How to sense when a sprite is a certain costume.

For example, you could get a repeat until (this is mostly for animating) from the control, then go to operators, drag out a =, go to looks, drag out a costume number, put it in the left side of the =, then type in the number you want it to stop at.

Hi! When I use a costume detector, I use this script:
if <(costume #) = []> then

end

Hope this helps you!
