Re: Suggestions For Scratch 1.5 or Scratch 2.0

Duplicate Sprite Block

Sort of like Stamp, but instead of just a picture, it has all the individual functions of that one sprite, but the sprite list doesn't multiply the sprite.


Sprite Boundary Zones

Sort of like the edge of the screen, if a sprite walks out of it, or touches it, there's an option to make it bounce.



Broadcast Receiving Blocks that can go under a subheading block instead of starting a new script.

I know.

You are still not very supportive.  tongue

IT'D BE NICE TO HAVE AN EASY-TO-USE PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE INTEGRATED WITH AN EASY-TO-USE LEGO CONTROLLER.

Yeah, but if Scratch could control an NXT or an RCX unit (It's retro, and I love it!) then you could get on screen visuals as well instead of the robot going along on it's own (except for the NXT, which can also you some phones to control it, which make me LOL). I'm trying to make a robot with high AI (or some gimmick which looks like it's clever) which you can speak to, and Scratch would be perfect for that.

Re: Suggestions For Scratch 1.5 or Scratch 2.0

Well, you don't need the [set variable to (x position and y position)] type block, as you can do that very easily without that block. Same applies to the list one.

As for having more than 10 megabytes - there's already plenty of space. People just like to pack in tons of space-consuming music. That's their problem. Honestly, 10 megabytes is large.
Anyway, if it were expanded to 15 megabytes, people would just pack more music in, get upset at the 'lack' of space, and want 20 megabytes.

Re: Suggestions For Scratch 1.5 or Scratch 2.0

There should be a way to create a sprite and delete them, based on a template.
this would be useful for games where you are shooting at other starships or something of the sort. the lazer to be specific. or cannonballs

Re: Suggestions For Scratch 1.5 or Scratch 2.0

Scratch should have an "If touching color____ bounce" block.

They should also let you export projects with higher file sizes, because I once worked for months on a project and it wouldn't let me load it onto the site.

Re: Suggestions For Scratch 1.5 or Scratch 2.0

i would like a create a block section, not using squeak, you could create a block, set its inputs and outputs determine its type, color and function and add it to your blocks. That way developers wouldnt have to keep updating each block, they could just send out new functions for the block builder
