Cursor is over

So, I made a game where you put your cursor is over a sprite, that one moves out of the screen and a new one goes where the old one was.

Well,it works, but then it just stays like that for the whole game.

So,in the event sheet, I put Else and then the reversed thing.

But then,it just flashes uncontrollably.

Is there a better way to do this or if not,can I fix the flashing?

Can you post a screenshot of the your code?

The link doesn't show anything, even when spaces are removed.

That is because I don't have enough reputation to post a link.

Adding spaces was the correct thing to do, but it's just that the resultant url doesn't show anything.

You have to remember that the "Else" is linked/based on the former event. Which means that as long as mouse cursor is not over sprite8, the "Else" will trigger true. So your code switches between "Mouse cursor over sprite8" being true, which moves sprite8 to 2000,2000 and then the next tick the "Else" will be true moving it back again. Which explain why you see it flicker or flashing.

Ok, do you know another way to do the same thing?

From what I understand you are trying to make it so every time the mouse cursor moves over one of the sprites they switch place right?

Here is an example of how you could do it. I haven't used any families etc. to keep it simple:

Each sprite have a Boolean variable called "Active" and only when this is true the switch will take place and will be switch for each of the sprites when the mouse cursor is not over them to avoid them flashing.

Never mind, I replaced moving sprites with animation frames.
