The project I’m working on requires a dot to appear every time I tap the screen. 5 taps= 5 dots. Do I need to create a sprite for every tap and code it? Or is there another, easier, way?
Do you want all the dots showing up, one by one, up to 5? Then you’ll need 5 separate dots. If they’re doing similar things, it’s easy to copy the sprite with the code.
If you want them to show up one at a time, you can do some finagling with the code to make it work with just one dot.
this idea sounds so interesting @Jean_Daley
was really curious what project you’re making, and if you found a way to do what you wanted in the end ? : )
I’m working on making a digital version of Press Here, by Herve Tullet. And I’m struggling!!! If I use the ‘tap’ block, and then tap again…well, I have to find a way to code around the tapping.
I did something, no idea what, and allllll the code became wonky. I started over last night. ;/

oh wow i did not know of this book, but watched this read along and it just seems perfect for recreating parts in OctoStudio 
Wondering if Wait Until Tap block could help you with waiting for multiple taps at some points in this ?
…not sure what might have happened with the wonky code, but def would be delighted to help anytime, if you get stuck with your new version <3
