I can't make clones at all

DeaNicko

My browser / operating system: Windows NT 10.0, Chrome 92.0.4515.159, No Flash version detected
Project link
I can't even click on the create clone block to make clones, I have an extention and I can see the number of clones but it's never changing

This is what the code looks like

when green flag clicked
forever
wait (pick random from 3 to 5) secs
set x to (pick random from -140 to 140)
create clone of [ myself]
end

pls help

repeat until <get a thing to do>

Seems to work for me, what clones aren't cloning?

I'm a decent coder who has a huge passion for coding. I taught myself all the coding skills I have now. And with those skills, I have made some pretty decent projects, check them out! Be sure to ⭐ ❤️ & Follow, too! I have a few pictures below which are actually links. Click on them to take to different projects that I made. Might come in handy. :)

Need a project where you can check to see if you can use someone's camera or not? Here's one:

Need a project to detect when someone has clicked the stop sign? Take a look at this:

Need a project that can point at specific clones, etc? Why not use this:

Need to prank someone? Tell them to click this picture, but also make sure they're signed onto Scratch, otherwise, it doesn't work:

For more of my projects, just click on this picture:

Just wanna get this out of the way that you’re not allowed to name browser extensions due to this policy

if i was in aladdin, my first wish would be to have infinite wishes, and use those infinite wishes for infinite wishes on each wish, rince and repeat

I think the clones are just stacked up, after the creat clone block tell the sprite to go to a random position so the are not stacked up.

Did you even read my post? The clones are not even being created and this is the code for the clones

when I start as a clone
show
set [ y velocity] to [20]
set [ direction] to [pick random from -3 to 3]
set [ speed] to [pick random from 2 to 5]
repeat until <(y position) < [-175]>
turn cw (direction) degrees
move (speed) steps
change y by (y velocity)
change [ y velocity] by (-1)
end
delete this clone

Also the sprite goes to a random x position before the clones are created and all of these variables are for this sprite only

The fact that the button doesnt work suggests the idea that you need to reload your page, try that.

If you mean the apple the y poisition of the sprite is already below -175 so the clone just gets deleted as soon as it is created.

Same for the banana.

Try setting the y position of the sprite before you create clones.

Thank you so much! I spent a wasted a lot of time trying to find out why this was happening

If you think clones aren't being created it's always worth disabling the ‘delete this clone’ block to test. You need to know whether they're created and deleted or not created.
