Re: Whats mesh?

Mesh is a connection between Scratch and another Scratch (Or so), there isn't any Python Programming involved for connecting or any other programming language. (I'm not sure if Mesh is for multiple programming languages besides Scratch.) Mesh won't be added to Scratch until 1.5 or when it's fixed up. But BYOB 2.0 has it, so if you want to experiment with it then there you are.

Re: Whats mesh?

Share > Host > Shows IP

Use broadcasts and variables to send info between one Scratch Project and another.

Project 1 (Host)

[broadcast |Start|]

Project 2 (Client)

[Receive |Start|]
[show]

There is a Sensor Block that can see variables on the Client to Host and Host to Client. (Just look at the very bottom blocks)

Re: Whats mesh?

So you can open two scratch files and they interact with each other?

So can two Scratch files from different computers interact with each other?

How could you make multiplayer online games since 1.3? Also, is there anything they can interact with besides broadcast/I recieve?

Martian: I don't think so, unless you make variables and use a certain sensor block.

Re: Whats mesh?

What sensor block can you use? The things that I need are variables and lists to interact.

Re: Whats mesh?

You can't exchange lists from one computer to another only variables. Unless you make a temp variable and it switches to a number then then other computer receives it, adds it to a list then the temp variable goes to next line till there aren't anymore lines left.
