Trouble with zombie game.

zorgo9

I want the zombies to take away half a heart every time they touch you.
I've tried doing this:

On the zombie:

When flag clicked
Forever
If <touching sprite 1> then
Broadcast (ouch)

And on the hearts:

When I receive (Ouch)
Next costume

(which is a half heart down each time.)

The problem is it doesn't just go to the next costume and stop. It swoosh's through all of the costumes until I'm not touching the zombie. Any suggestions?

maybe try this for the zombies:

when gf clicked
forever
 if <touching sprite> then
 [Broadcast (ouch)]
 [wait (1) secs]
 end
end

If you need to let them only touch you once, you can go with something more like

when gf clicked
forever
 if <touching [sprite v]> then
 [Broadcast [ouch v]]
 [wait until <not <touching [sprite v]>>]
 end
end
