Secret Code Typing

rhymesongandshlong

I want to make secret codes that you can type into a screen on scratch, but I can't figure out how to make an area to type in to change a variable!

Depends how you want to achieve this. Do you want the player to type the code in using an Ask block, like a secret phrase? Or do you want like a Konami Code type of scenario?

If it's a Konami Code scenario, then you can do this with a list. Set up what each input you want to be on each section of the list. For example, 1.up, 2.right, 3.down. etc. Then set a variable to 1, this variable will tell you which key press you want to input next. So if the variable is 1, and the user presses up, add 1 to this variable, and so on for 2, and 3 of the said list. If they input an incorrect key, reset the variable back to 1.

when green flag clicked
ask [CODE?] and wait
if <<[(answer)] = [example]>> then 
set [yes?] to [YES]
  

else

stop [ all]
end
