To explain it more briefly, my code is not working and everytime I switch the background it will switch back. Even if I have the code set to repeat, forever or anything else.

Project: https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/840158939/

You could use this block

when backdrop switches to [backdrop v]
switch backdrop to [backdrop 2 v]

It needs names instead of numbers though.

Is there a script that is constantly setting the background to something?

when gf clicked
forever
if <([backdrop # v] of [Stage v]) = [num]> then
switch backdrop to [another backdrop v]
end
end

If you are in the stage, you can just use the backdrop # reporter.

Could you share the project link so we can see your code?

https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/840158939/ Here it is.

You could use

when green flag clicked
forever
if <(backdrop name) = [name you want]> then
switch backdrop to [whatever v]
end
end

The code in the backdrop doesn't have a forever loop so that's your problem with the code.

What I meant to say to be more specific is, there is one group of backdrops that are one of set of animations and there is another one. I need the script to make it switch the backdrops and start another animation after I click a button. But the first set of animations are causing it to bug the first animation.

Bamboozled by 3.0!

(backdrop [name v] :: looks)
(backdrop [number v] :: looks) // these blocks exist in sprites, not just the stage

oh my god


In 2.0 the backdrop name block was accessible to the stage and sprites, but the backdrop # block was only accessible to the stage and they were asking for a number.. which you could obtain in sprites through workarounds such as the sensing block but I wasn't sure if saying “Drag the backdrop # block from the stage on top of the sprites to copy it there” would confuse them.
