Hotbar item decoding no work?

The problem is in the hotbar sprite. You’ll find a lot of useless code there because its from one of my games, and this project is a test for the game.

Edit: enter 2 when it asks you “1 or 2?” for decoding (where the problem is at). 1 is encoding, and it works fine. You can find the problem at the comment attached to a script in the hotbar sprite.

Oh yeah, i forgot to tell you.

Put it through turbowarp.

Is it too early for me to bump?

Actually i dont think it is.

Anyways I looked into the code, and it seems that some variables arent resetting when you click green flag. Make sure you set them at 0? Maybe that's the problem

All the necessary variables are being reset, whether its at the beginning or at the part of the script where its necessary. Some are blank because the code wont work properly any other way

Edit: I updated the thread. Looks at it so you know what to do now.

I think I can bump this again.

switch costume to (held item)? ::looks

I really don't know how. I suspect it has something to do with clones though.

idk what im doing

I figured it out I think…
It's to do with the variable “CloneID”

I logged everything and it seems that only clone id “5” is running, however in the code letter 5 of “Item2” is 0- which doesn't do anything.

But how to determine the held item?

I already accomplished this, the problem is not the costume switching, the actual list doesnt change.

0 isn’t supposed to do anything. It represents an empty slot, and all slots are empty before the item 2 decoding starts.

Hmm I logged some more stuff…

And the item id check is never equal to the clone id.
Therefore it never gets updated.

I think.

But i set it to 0 and changed it in the repeat loop?

When the bump

I literally don't know welp.

Why not create a copy of the project with as much as possible removed and share it on Scratch. It's much easier for those helping to look at something on Scratch and remix. Tidying up scripts on Scratch, for example, gives an arrangement of scripts that is easier to me to quickly scroll through looking for things rather than the Turbowarp arrangement where I have to scroll horizontally and vertically.

Make sure all variables are of the right type. CloneIDs need to be local but if you're using those to access a list that list needs to be global - you don't want each clone to be updating its own copy of a list.

Nvm, bug fixed.

Just magically happened after some more tweaking.
