How do you make a sprite jump? cause it doesnt come back down if i just make it press the up button? if you could help me that would mean a lot!

I assume you next question is how do you get it to stop coming down.

There are tons of ways for both. This is probably isn't the best, but it is one way. http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/12969047/

is there any way there can be a simpler one? xD i am new to this soooo ya xD

turkey3_test

when key [up arrow v] pressed //when you press the jump button
set [y velocity v] to (6) //"y velocity" is the vertical speed of a sprite
repeat (12)
change y by (y vel)
change [y velocity v] by (-1)
end

Yes = Turkey's response does a jump and back down and down and down. I don't know what you are doing with the jumper, but I predict that you will want to do most of the things in my project.
- Move left and right
- Go off the screen
- Stop falling.

I remixed a project about jumping and made it pretty smooth and simple I think. I can't link cause I'm on mobile but it should be in my profile.

I have a complete video tutorial on implementing jumping and gravity here: http://inventwithscratch.com/double-jump-demo/

when green flag clicked
forever
    
set [x vel] to [((x vel) * (98.99)) ]
set [y vel] to [((y vel) * (98.99)) ]
end

is the correct script for the xy velocity?

i tried turkey3 test's programming and it worked!

maxwellblue

lets make it easy and do:

when [up arrow] key pressed
repeat (10)
    
change y by (10)
end
repeat (10)
    
change y by (-10)
end

adynlavine

when green flag clicked
forever
    
if <not <touching [ground sprite] ?>> then
set [yv] to [-1]
repeat until <touching [ground sprite] ?>
    
wait (.1) secs
change y by (yv)
change [yv] by (-2)
end

    
end

end

when green flag clicked
forever
    
if <key [space] pressed?> then
if <touching [ground sprite] ?> then
    
end

    
repeat (20)
    
change x by (5)
end

end

end

the repeat 20 is supposed to be inside the if touching ground sprite also the numbers are customizable
