Can someone figure out why the boss isn't spawning

game link: the game i need help with
The game uses timers and I'm guessing I coded something wrong about them because the boss is not spawning
if someone can look through the code and hopefully find a solution it would mean a lot!

So which sprite and script are we looking at?

Okay well first off all you script that starts the enemy spawning starts when it receives “glock” which I assume is not correct? After that it works fine and the boss spawns as it should.

Hope this helps!

Edit: haha. wayyy ahead of you deck, lol.

I made it like that on purpose because I don't want the enemies to start spawning until they pick up the pistol and when they do, the zombies can start spawning

looks like I'll never find the solution

Most likely cause is too many clones of other objects. Try setting up a new sprite which you can clone by pressing a key. What happens if you try to clone that sprite at the time you expect the boss to appear? If it doesn't appear either then you've probably hit the clone limit.

Clones aren't the problem, you're never broadcasting boss fight so the boss never spawns.

I recommend reading jvvg's essay about the scratch team before complaining, as it may change your opinion and provide insight on the topic.

coming soon :)

If you look at the spawning script, it broadcasts boss fight 130 seconds into the game. But for some reason it isn't. I don't think it's hitting the clone limit. Is there another way to broadcast it that would work?
