Scratch

i think that we should have better scratch boards. ones that can turn a light on when its programmed too or turn a motor.

ohh one more thing. being able to set a sound thats in the game to a sprites sound<play note(  )for(  )secss><set instrument to(

an import song from itunes button!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
PLEASE!

i dont think the broadcast[] for ()seconds is necessary.

well what you want something to happen only when a certain thing happens! HUH? HUH? WHAT ABOUT THAT!
jk   
i still like that feature.

I still dont get it.
what about:
if (hi) = 1
{
broadcast{...}
}
and set hi to 1 when you need it, 0 when you dont.

Maybe building blocks with scratch like byob, and saving them?

I like the way you think!

These are my suggestions:

1. Hide/show list blocks

2. Variable co-ordinates blocks

3. 'Stop all scripts for this sprite' block

4. Blocks to allow you to access system files (for example, to make a sprite a picture from someone' computer, like if you wanted the main character of the game to be choses by the player.

5. Save and load game blocks (I'm not quite sure how that would be done)

6. 'Previous costume' block

7. 'If touching {insert object here}, bounce' block

8. Make it so that you can switch variables from global to local and vice-versa.

9. 'Point away from {insert object here}' block.

10. 'Forever broadcast' block

11. 'Receive' block (so that it could revive a message at any time)

I'd say the only one that the scratch team might not do is number 5.

Suggestion for Scratch 1.5
Add simple movement boxes like:
When Flag Clicked
*Forever*
If right arrow key pressed
move right
*Forever*

Well, now that Scratch 1.4 is out, what do you want to see in Scratch 1.5? Yes I know this is early, but ah well.

typing to code to make new blocks to make scratch easier?WITH THE OLD BLOCKS SO YOU HAVE THOSE

they should make it so you can adjust how quickly the pen and stamps fade away

[blocks]<when green flag clicked>[/blocks]
<new variable [name]>
<delete variable [name]>
<tell sprite {sprite} to do>
Code here
<bottom>
<give sprite {sprite} script:>
Code here
<bottom>
<stop {script, all} script(s) on sprite {sprite}>
<reload> (Hit Green Flag)
<stop all scripts but {script or block}>
< () and () >
< {} and {} >
< [] and [] >
< () or () >
< {} or {} >
< [] or [] >
[blocks]<stop all>[/blocks]

You can just do that by changing x, and it doesn't specify how far you want to move right.

For the variables co-ordinates, I was thinking of this:

{variable name} go to x ( ? ) y ( ? )

For the save/load blocks, I meant that you can save the game, like you can save most computer games, so that when you go back onto the game, you start where you left off.

I know you can make lots of those yourself, as I have done it countless times, but it would just make things easier.

I mean a command block, that just said receive, so you could receive something at any time.
