I need help with the "show" block

minecraft_nerd_nerd

The simplest code - the show block won't work no matter what. Even when I manually click the “show” block, it won't show the sprite. The weird part is, even though I can't see the sprite, when I click where the sprite is supposed to be, the code runs normally.
Conclusion: I can't see the sprite, but it's still there.
Question: How do I make the sprite visible?

Seems to be on a layer behind the background sprite. Go to the front layer when receiving “game over”.

could it be a similar layering problem?

Hello! From what I know, there are three main issues when hiding and showing a sprite.
1. Hide/Show This one makes sense, make sure the sprite is actually shown
2. Front layer Make sure the sprite is at the top layer
3. Ghost effect I'm not fully sure of the issue but a lot of times the “Ghost Effect” block sometimes hides the sprite. Make sure to “Clear graphic effects” when the sprite with the issue receives the broadcast
