Blocks not responding to my brodcast
I an making a binary-octal-decimal converter and the broadcast doesn't work. This is how I have my script:
Part 1: The "Generate" button:[blocks]
<when green flag clicked>
<forever>
<wait until><< <mouse down?> <and> <touching[ mouse-pointer ] >>
<broadcast[ generate ]>
<wait until><< <not> <mouse down?> >>
<end>[/blocks]
Part 2: The Generator:[blocks]
<when I receive[ generate ]>
<repeat( 3 )>
<if><( <{ }> <<> 3 )>
<repeat( 3 )>
add <pick random( 0 )to( 1 )) to binary (when blocks made, nonexistent)
<end>
<change{ }by( 1 ) ))
<end>
<end>[/blocks]
Help wanted!

I don't think that would give positive results... 
I know what you're thinking! "Neptune! Get rid of those filthy advertisements and give us back the Zarathustra siggy, you horrible person!" Well, don't worry about it, the Zara siggy will be back soon, new and improved! ^^ Meanwhile, just do what the sig tells you to. >.>Offline

Re: Blocks not responding to my brodcast
use when <when[ spritename ]clicked> instead to deteck the click. probably the loop take all the cpu time and doesnt let the generator to run...

Re: Blocks not responding to my brodcast
Good idea... but I can click after I press the stop button. So I abandoned it. But good idea there!
Code:
The loop and the generator run in separate threads, but since there is only one CPU-just one can execute at a time.
I put it in the code box because it's techy.

Are you talking about when using scratch 1.4 or 1.3.1?

Re: Blocks not responding to my brodcast
Nevermind. The problem is I forgot these blocks:
[blocks]<set{ }to( 0 ))[/blocks]
and
clear [ all ] of [ binary ]
. Close please!
