Stop broadcast

There should be a block that says stop all broadcast messages. So, that way, the sprites can't broadcast a message at the wrong time.

Stop broadcast

There is it's called stop all scripts! You put a broadcast in your code to generate an event at exactly the right time so can't see how they would ever be doing it at the wrong time?

Stop all scripts stops all the sprites and what they are doing. It is equal to pushing the stop button.

Sometimes, when you don't want a sprite to broadcast something, they might still broadcast it, thus causing some action at the wrong time. That iswhat I mean…

Stop broadcast

Use an “if” to limit the broadcasts or a “wait until” to time it right.
