I'm trying to make a game where these two blocks have to touch a separate checkpoint which I've made using clones. They were working before but not sure what I did as they are no longer working.

Here is my project: https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/749587057/
Go to checkpoint sprite to see the code for it

How many clones you want to create? i'm asking because you are creatin up to 18 in less than a second…

See the picture and think about.

Thanks for the reply, uhh I'm gonna need at least 2 clones for each of the characters to pass a new level.

I'm so confused why this isn't working I remember it working perfectly fine but then I was trying to change the positions of the checkpoints and something happened.

Edit: Sorry if I'm coming off as rude but I am really desperate for this to work. It was just working before as well which makes it even worse.

I suspect you have an ‘and’ where you should have an ‘or’. Touching one of the players is what you want rather than having to touch both?

No I want to have one checkpoint touching each one of the players simultaneously to start a new level. So both I think. The problem seems to be code not detecting one of the clones but only the original block.

Edit: The only fix I've found so far is to overlap the checkpoints point. But I want a more effective solution. For some reasons my clones are no longer being deleted as well.

I found out my clones are being multiplied by alot because I'm using a broadcast command to create clones. Is there a way to only have one clone each created?

1. Remote Broadcasting - Use another sprite that doesn't have clones to receive the broadcast message. Or, use the backdrop.

when I receive [make clones v]
create clone of [sprite v] //Click "myself" and then select the name of the sprite

2. Clone ID - Use an ID variable to detect if the thing that received the message is a clone or a sprite

when green flag clicked //When you initially create the first clones
set [Clone ID v] to [Clone] //For this sprite only
create clone of [myself v]
set [Clone ID v] to [Sprite]

when I receive [make clones v]
if <(Clone ID) = [Sprite]> then
set [Clone ID v] to [Clone]
create clone of [myself v]
set [Clone ID v] to [Sprite]
end

how do you position where the clones will go?

You can't just add in the scripts I put into your project and expect it to work. I just provided an example. You would have to set Clone ID to Clone before you use the “create clone of myself” block and then set it back to sprite at the end of all of your cloning scripts. I'm not sure why you have a forever loop for the “when I receive Start” block, but that probably shouldn't be there. Also, add the if loop for all other broadcasts with a “create clone of myself” block under it to check if Clone ID = Sprite to make sure that only the sprite is running that code.

Nvm, I got it working thanks so much.

Also is there a way to delete the clones after a new level. Nvm I got it too work. Thanks everybody for the help.

mine too!

My project, the blocks are not working too, so I have been making it so when you press a key, that it responds, but some of the key responding blocks are not working, like, the player is not working when I press WASD. I don't know why. or how this became to be.
There/Here is the link for the project. https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/946453124/

why isnt mine working also if you want to do the WASD then do the makey makey tool.

Please don't necropost.
