So yeah i'm making a project with a custom block like this

Fade In :: custom

And its supposed to do this

define Fade In
repeat (18)
change [ghost effect v] effect by (-5)
end

But i'm wondering if u can actually make it fade in with the hide block like this

when green flag clicked
hide

when this sprite clicked
Fade In :: custom

And so if u are making your sprite hide when flag is clicked (u saw wut Fade In does) like can u make it fade in even tho u used hide block instead of using the ghost effect block and making it 100?

Hide makes your sprite invisible regardless of what its ghost effect is. You have to set the ghost effect to 100 and show the sprite if you want it to fade in.

Wait so your saying i have to make it invisible with the ghost effect instead of using hide?
So instead of this…

when green flag clicked
hide

Your saying i have to do this

when green flag clicked
set [ghost effect v] effect to (100)

So that i can do this

when green flag clicked
Fade In :: custom

Yeah. If you hide the sprite, it will stay hidden even if its ghost effect gets changed. They're two separate things: ghost effect just makes the sprite transparent, while hide also prevents it from interacting with things like your mouse pointer or other sprites.

Also, I'd personally suggest moving set ghost effect and fade in into the same script.

when green flag clicked
set [ghost v] effect to (100)
fade in :: custom

Oh ok, thanks!

when green flag clicked
set [ghost effect v] effect to (100)
Fade In :: custom
say [Thank you!]

i guess you could like make the equasion for the gost effect a variable or something but i think you should make a new topic to get better answers rather than using someone elses
