HI everyone!

I am new to this site and new to coding in general. I am trying to teach myself as much as I can, but I am having a problem figuring out how to make a sprite appear after making another one “hide”

I have figured out how to make sprite #1 disappear after reaching a certain point on the page, but then I want a new one to appear in it's place… Kind of like a magic trick.
Is this even possible?

Any and all help is much appreciated.

Thank you so much!

Basically, the script for Sprite 2 should be, "When sprite one gets in position and dissapears, go to sprite 1, and show. Like this:

when I receive [sprite 1 in place v]
go to [Sprite 1 v]
show

If anything goes wrong, tell me.

In the first sprite, program:

when I receive [Hide v]
hide
broadcast [show v]

Next, program in another sprite:

when green flag clicked
hide

when I receive [show v]
show

However, you can easily work around this with the costume ability. Over the blocks bar, you'll notice a bar saying “Costumes.” Click that, and above the costume icons there's a bar similar to the New Sprite bar. Use this to make your costume, then program:

when green flag clicked
switch costume to [costume1 v]

when I receive [show v]
next costume

Hope this helps!

if <(platypus) = [platypus]> then
set [platypus v] to [platypus]

You guys are awesome! Thanks for the quick response. Have been racking my brain over this one.

Will keep you posted!

This is the script for the sprite that you want to hide:

when I receive [do stuff]
hide

Here is the script for the other sprite:

when green flag clicked
hide //this part is so that he is not shown the whole time

when I receive [do stuff]
go to [sprite1]
show

Hope this helped!!

when green flag clicked
forever
set [what I'm doing] to [playing destiny]
end
