I'm trying to make a game where the player HAS to switch his/her character. The game is where Character A is telling you the intro but the one you actually play as is Character B. How can I do this?

Each character is a sprite. Put the movement controls in Sprite B's script.

Put the intro statements in Sprite A's script.

This is an easy-to-use method for if you have two characters they can choose from.

Have the player select the character; if they select character A, set a variable to 1. If they select character B, set the variable to 2.

Then, you do this;

switch costume to (character) //the player
switch costume to ((3)-(character)) //the character the player isn't playing as

So if they select character 1, the other one will be 3-1, or 2. If they select 2, the other one will be 3-2, or 1.

Like this (sorry if the blocks look like rubbish)

Sprite A-

when green flag clicked
say [blah blah blah]
broadcast [introdone v]
hide

Sprite B-

when green flag clicked
hide

when I receive [introdone v]
show
then all the motion and other things

A pretty simple way to do a character select:
For all the other sprites: Put all the stuff you'd normally put after “when Green flag clicked” after a "when I receive “ (let's go with ”Start“) instead and give them a ”when Green flag clicked“ hide
Make a sprite that's a button for each character option and have it appear when the green flag is clicked, then give them code so if they're clicked, then they set a variable to the name of the appropriate character then broadcast ”Start“.
Also give each button ”when I receive Start" hide, so they get out of the way.

Then you can use the variable you set with the character select to either modify costume selections (if your different characters are just a different set of costumes on the same sprite), or to decide which sprite becomes active if you've made them different sprites.

I'm making a zombies game and I need to figure out how I need to change my character
