Hiya! I'm making a card game and I use clones of a card Sprite to populate the player's hand. The problem is that after cards are dealt, the last card drawn is not considered a clone. How can I fix that?

The code repeats 5 times to

create clone of [myself v]

The first 4 copies are clones, but the 5th one remains the sprite itself, which is causing some issues. I also have code randomizing which cards are drawn (by randomizing costumes), and the pos of the cards, but I wasn't sure if that would be relevant to this question.

Alternatively, is there a way to replicate the sprite 5 times without using clones? That might even be a better fix, TBH. It seems like some code treats clones differently than sprites, and some code treats them the same, which is what is causing issues.

Hi! Perhaps try using this code.

when green flag clicked
repeat (5)
create clone of [ myself]
end
hide

when I start as a clone
show

CodesNorth, yes! That fixed the problem. Thank you.

invalidaccess, I will take a look at that. Thank you.
