Are you using an `on game update every [number] ms` event block? The event block will activate the moment the game starts, as that is the first game update. Then it will activate after the number of milliseconds you set. Also, if you post the game link, it would be a little easier to help. 🙂 ---

Okay, I think the ghost isn’t moving because: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/makecode/original/2X/4/45edeccaa08b3a0c58235d1a71d5e41d27c65bba.png) You’re changing the `[picture]` variable once in the `game update` block, and again in the function that is called directly after: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/makecode/original/2X/0/083c3c35d771dc82291ed0bf53173b2f9ba3d615.png) Because of this, the `[picture]` variable is equal to two when the sprite is spawned, and so the `follow` block doesn’t get declared. You could fix this by 1) removing one of the variable changes: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/makecode/original/2X/b/b50503bf9322860381939fd2cf48b5a1d3016aef.png) or 2) you could just declare the `follow` block in each of the `else if` statements: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/makecode/original/2X/7/76baa1069c844cab59ee02d54602808a150fbb90.png) ---

Yeah, you might have to use a variable to keep it from spawning immediately. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/makecode/original/2X/9/982faabf98cf6136165fc4a815e44596900616ba.png) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/makecode/original/2X/c/cb6279176735beee2432a90307dfc1281882c3dd.png) ---

I think that’s because you’re changing the variable _before_ you do the `if` statement. Try moving the `change gum by 1` variable to the end of the `game update` block. ---
