Scratch Repetedly Crashes

Scratch Keeps Crashing when I add a block to my latest project. The only thing massive in size is the equation I made (which has to be repeated 6 times). The memory usage keeps going above 512 MB, which I believe is crashing it. Any idea how I can stop it crashing?

Maybe change the process priority, this has helped me before (not with Scratch though)

Try taking the equation out of the script, the add your blocks, then when you're done, save, and put the equation back in the project.

Yeah. In my code project, scratch always got very slow when I made a huge script. Separating the script makes it way easier!  big_smile
