The Degrees Turning Bug

NavonLee

I have been trying to make my sprites turn using the change degrees block. But for some reason, when I try to make them turn, they will make a full circle to turn instead of turning in a spot. Please help. It has ruined a bunch of ideas I have been trying to make.
Before you ask, yes Scratch Desktop is also acting the same.

Can you show your code? I'm not quite sure what you're trying to explain.

We can’t help you if you don’t show us the code - it might be set to a certain amount and that could be why it’s going in a circle.
EXAMPLE:

when green flag clicked
turn cw (180) degrees


when green flag clicked
turn cw (15) degrees

The most likely cause is that the costume for your sprite is no centered.
Scratch will always turn a sprite around its centre, so if the costume is off-centre, the sprite will appear to move in a circle around the centre.

If that happens you can reposition the sprite so it doesn't make a circle. ^
