I'm from The Writing Workshop and Store, and I had taken the Review for you.

Overall, the way you spaced it out and separated everything into perfect groups, was great. The one thing I would suggest is to maybe make it more exciting, and you can use colors, like this. You can look up BBCode if you need it. Also, you might want to add a little bit more detail. I think it's a great use for New Scratchers.

Hello! I have this really weird bug inside an animation project I am currently working on. There are multiple scenes that I label with
broadcast [ scene _ ]

However, in one of the scenes, I have my characters go off screen and hide. Then I have them show behind a second sprite that covers the screen in darkness, because they're somewhere dark. I use this script:
hide

when I receive [ scene 12 ]
show

However, for some odd reason, 3 of them don't show up behind the black screen, which is later removed. This messes up the whole animation. I have put the previous script, like, three times within the sprites, yet the 3 still don't show up.

What's even more confusing is that when I play to that scene from the very beginning, the 3 sprites won't show up. But if I press broadcast scene 12, then, yes, they will show up.

I don't want to share a bugged project, so I don't have a link, I'm sorry.

Please help, and thank you for any suggestions.

Hi! I'm a relatively new scratcher that has been trying to make a project that involves a rapid fire gun and a LOTT of sprites. I'm almost done with the project but I've encountered a strange bug that has occurred on some of my other projects. What I did was I set a sprite to go to X:0 and Y: 0 and it showed up on like the bottom of the screen saying in the right hand corner that it was on X:0 and Y:0 but it clearly wasn't. I looked at some other projects and they all went to their correct location. I don't know if i'm a horrible programmer and I'm just doing something wrong or if this is a strange bug.

Please help.
