Problem with cloning. Not working after a while.
when green flag clicked
forever
create clone of [ myself]
end
when I start as a clonedelete this clone
wait (0.15) secs
This is the code I used on my platformer. I wanted to make a cool clone effect behind the character like most popular platformers do. I used that script above and it seemed to work fine, but after about 5 min it started to sputter out and the clones just disappeared entirely.

Change it to:

forever
wait (0.15) secs
delete this clone
end

I don't know if this will work, but try putting a wait 0.001secs block in the loop that is making the clones
This is my signature. It appears at the bottom of all of my posts.

The problem might be because of Scratch's 300 clone limit. If the clones aren't deleting themselves, then once the amount has reached the maximum no more clones will be produced.

What's the point of that - the clone can only delete itself once. Change it to:when I start as a clone
forever
wait (0.15) secs
delete this clone
end
As already stated this is almost certainly the 300 clone limit. If you're deleting clones of this sprite are you cloning another? The limit is 300 clones in the project, not 300 of each sprite.

when green flag clicked
set size to (100) %

when I start as a clone
switch costume to [3 v]
repeat (10)
change [ghost v] effect by (10)
