I can't seem to go back to earlier blocks, for example im at rubber block now and im not able to go back to dirt.

Edit: I didn't realize you swiped with your mouse down, i thought you only could use the arrow, therefore i think you should add an arrow to the left.

You could have a variable which controls gravity which is inverted when the player touches the ground (from 5 to -5 or something), in addition to making the current gravity, which is something you should already track using platformer scripts, multiplied by -1 to invert it. If you don't know how to do platformer scripts, there are many tutorials out there, griffpatch and otherwise, and I would recommend looking at some of those to get something which works for you.

sorry I should define that the platform the player touches loses gravity

OpenAI is pitching Sora to Hollywood.

The AI company is scheduled to meet with a number of studios, talent agencies, and media executives in Los Angeles next week to discuss partnerships, sources familiar with the matter tell Bloomberg. Getting more filmmakers familiar with Sora, OpenAI’s upcoming text-to-video generator, is a major goal of the meetings.

Although Sora is still awaiting a public release later this year, Bloomberg reports that a few A-list directors and actors have already been given access.

Imagine if AI wrote Age of Ultron.

I'm making a fighting game with 2 characters, and player 2 is a clone of player 1. When I press w, player 1 jumps and changes to the jump costume, as intended. When I press up arrow, player 2 jumps, but doesn't change sprites. If I manually activate the code, it changes player 1 to the jump costume instead. I don't know why this happens and I can't fix it. The code is the same for each, and player 2 has to be a clone for the game to work.

2 suggestions:

-1: Make the game auto clicker proof, i tested it with and it worked doing insane dmg to blocks.
-2: Make it so that when you try to buy an upgrade but you have no money it displays a message saying that you don't have enough money.

No, I saw the comments and the comments were up for a couple days by the time I looked at the projects and the profile page.

define Move (steps) steps detecting <condition>
set [condition v] to [0]
repeat (steps)
move (1) steps
if <condition> then
set [condition v] to [1]
stop [this script, if you prefer v]
end
end
end

And,
To move the bullet a certain number of steps,

move (the number you want here) steps detecting <touching [enemy v] ?>
...
if <(condition) = [1]> then
delete this clone
end

This should work

I am checking you're game out, and it's very complicated! Although im really interested and it does look like a hidden gem of a game i come here with a suggestion:

Make the game show the most complex features later into the game!
Yes, only show the essential in the beginning and go explaining it along as the player progresses so it makes the learning of the games mechanics easier!

Of course this is only a suggestion and if you want you could keep the game like this, incase you dont know how to implement this i can give you an example:

The overkill feature, you could only show it when the player gets an overkill! Instead of showing it way before the player is able to do it.

Again, thank you and for the other people helping me and have a good development of your game!

Hello
I have made new upgrades, new turrets, new enemies …. I've been making progress.
But as always there are problems, I think there are only two at the moment:
1- The ice turret has an additional upgrade which is to increase the time an enemy is frozen. In all the other upgrades it was easy because there was a variable to know which turret to upgrade, but it was a variable only for that sprite. Instead, this upgrade is programmed on another sprite (enemy) so I can't use that variable. I had thought about sending a message to do the freeze part in the sprite that has the variable (the turret sprite), but in the program there are also more variables just for that sprite. In the end I found an alternative variable, but it only worked if you had the turret selected.
2- The second one is for a new enemy, that when you destroy it has to split small enemies, hence the name split. I created it, made the movement and everything, but I left out the important part of the split. I had thought that I could, inside the block that I have for when they are destroyed, if the enemy is the split send a message that spawns 5 small enemies, but it doesn't work (the spawn is a block that I have made that says the speed, life that each type has and creates them as clones). They start appearing from wave 7 onwards.
Instead of playing the game to get the money, see if it works etc. I've made it so that if you press the Q key it adds money and also if you make the “IceTurret_FreezeTime” list visible you can see if it improves or not.
I hope someone can answer me, please
If I'm explaining it wrong please tell me.
Help, please.

Heres a block design you can code:

define Word (word) For (seconds) Seconds on sound (sound)
set [letter v] to (0)
repeat (length of (word :: custom) :: operators)
add (letter (letter) of (word :: custom)) to [Words v] :: lists
change [letter v] by (1)
say (Words :: lists)
start sound (sound) :: sound
end
wait (seconds :: custom) seconds :: control
say []

Please go to this link of https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/989208707/ for more help.

Well, turns out none of the options worked, but still thanks for the suggestion! Take a look at this video after i did both things:
https://encr.pw/xmVoF

P.S. Do you think i need to make the tracer longer?
P.S.S: Had to use a shortened url link otherwise scratch censors it!

In coin sprite:

when I start as a clone
repeat until <touching [Player v] ?>
Some possible animation
end
change [COINS v] by (1)
hide
play sound [Optional coin sound v] until done
delete this clone

Ok, by the looks of it you have the bullets and enemy’s doing there things when the backdrop is 2, so this solution is assuming that is the case,
The glide block you have running is the main cause of your issues, its basically the equivalent of having it wait 8 seconds, so once it starts that glide to block, it will not continue with the code until it has finished gliding

Heres a solution id recommend if you are ok with this “enemy” pointing towards “Tom”:

forever
if <(backdrop #) = [2]> then
point towards [Tom v]
move (Insert the speed you want here) steps
if <touching [bullets v] ?> then
next costume
if <(costume #) = [3]> then
hide
end
end
end
end

This script above is also optimized to reduce the amount of un-needed scripts running at once, you can separate them again if i misunderstood the situation they are being used in, its just running a lot of (if) blocks per second causes a slight amount of lag

If you do not want the enemy to point to “Tom” then you can do:

forever
if <(backdrop #) = [2]> then
set [Prev Direction v] to (direction)
point towards [Tom v]
move (Insert the speed you want here) steps
point in direction (Prev Direction)
if <touching [bullets v] ?> then
next costume
if <(costume #) = [3]> then
hide
end
end
end
end

This just does the same thing but points away again after its done, you might want to put the entire thing into a custom block with screen refresh disabled, the sprite might be flashing if not

I hope this helps! Please tell me if it doesn’t.

I would like to be a curator, and I will follow all the rules.

whats the issue

While yes, Scratch-Minion’s solution works perfectly, another thing that might help is, if possible, reducing it to a when a key is pressed, having a wait until block in a forever loop could interfere with a lot of things, so this would be a little more efficient

when green flag clicked
hide
set (shop) to [0]

when [G v] key pressed
if <(shop) = [0]> then
set [shop v] to [1]
show
else
set [shop v] to [0]
hide
end

Not only does this remove a wait until block, it will also reduce the amount of if blocks being executed per loop
Little bit of nerdy info here
(If else) and (if) blocks are the largest cause of lag, having them in a forever loop will lead to it activating an (if) block every frame, even if the condition is false, the original script also had 2 (if) blocks, so even more. When it is put in the (when key pressed) block, the script will only check the if block when that key gets pressed, therefore reducing the total lag. While it may not seem like much, stuff like that can build up. It’s also better to have that knowledge for any future large projects you might make

And when does it happen. If it's in response to a broadcast the sprite being cloned would be an obvious cause.

You misread my post (which is understandable since it probably wasn't clear). Let me try again:

Just a heads up that it's not possible to have projects only visible by those who are a part of a certain studio. Honestly, unless you're planning on this project getting front-paged or on Trending, the NFE tag won't really do much, so you're probably fine without getting the NFE tag. Without the NFE tag, people will still be able to search for your project, but I feel like only fans of the song/artist would search things up related to that song, so you wouldn't be getting dunked on by any haterz.
