Re: Problem in new project!

The easiest way to fix this problem would be... to write angry emails to the scratch team demanding that that make the online player the same as the offline one  tongue

But seriously...
I looked at it and it should work. Try using variables instead of broadcasts.

Tell me about it. It is so tough trying to make my SSB project run well online its crazy. I mean, the program runs flawlessly on every computer I run it on when played OFFLINE. Too bad for me, most people will only play it ONLINE  mad

It really, really, drives me nuts.

Right now I am going to try to condense 12 lists into 3. Hope this works. Same amount of data, just different number of lists.

Re: Problem in new project!

Also, if you have like a very long script for checking something or just a very long script, try to shorten it by splitting it into halves and then use the block




<broadcast[  ]and wait c>

Dear Scratch Users,
I'm done with scratch, or at least making projects. I have made one last big game, thats both fun and teaches a lesson about water. It'd mean a lot if you gave me feedback.                              http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/bosox397/569201

Re: Problem in new project!

THe block does this:


Broadcast a message, then wait until everyone who recieves that message has finished their scripts.

The wait part basically is like a wait until: everyone is done with using the broadcasted message    tongue
