Scratch

thankyou! here's what i've changed so far since it were uploaded:
+ 2 city sizes to switch between
+ adjustment to how cars scroll on screen (the screen scrolls a lot better with them)
+ faster speeds for cars, and the reverse works too
+ adjust speeds with slow, medium and fast

At the moment there isn't too much trouble with file writing as I carefully check anything before uploading it. I would also love a "delete line () of file []" block too but there's no command for it. If you look in the block library you'll see that Jonnydean1 made one and it literally has to process the entire file, very slow.

The annoying thing though, is making people do setups.  Make this file here, and this file there...if we had |make file [ ]| and |delete file [ ]|, this wouldn't be necessary.

Not at all. The clear file block will create a file rather than clear it if it does not exist. As for deleting files and such there are plenty of blocks under panther files here

Don't tell me you did that on purpose     So why don't you just add a bunch of the blocks from the Panther Library and give credit?  Panther could really use some of those...

Sounds like a cool idea!

There can't ever be too much information, you simply save one variable per line to a file, then at the start of the game set each variable to that same line. I would recommend using the turbo-speed blocks (look in Panther control in the block library) to speed up saving and loading since there is no need for graphics then.

thanks. by the way, started sims game and done a demo to prove whether it works. Its basic, but time will tell how good it gets. It will need the clone stystem (and you guessed, panther) but here it is: http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/Borrego6165/2014576

sorry, shall we have a big "panther games" thread? i tried putting a show and tell on panther site but no one else posted anything on it, so it'll be on scratch.

Does anyone here know why Panther only opens the default project, even when you tell it to open something else?  Thanks!

^^^ again.  I REALLY need help with this.

Oh, and by the way, these blocks would be nice:
|make new folder [ ]|
|delete contents of folder [ ]|
|delete folder [ ]|
|move contents of folder [ ] to [ ]|

Also, (panther file path) might be useful.

300TH POST!!!

Sorry.

Does that mean you know the answer?

A link is a good idea, Illusionist, I've not seen Septimusheap in a while though, we shall have to see if he can be contacted!

A moderator could do it. 

Eh what?

Sorry, I lurk around misc most of the time now. And I always check my messages if it's someone's name I know.

Also, is panther still going? And who's in it still? I haven't seen NxIII in months.

Panther is still going, but slowly, I'm at University, which is drawing a lot of my time, and other developers are doing things... I've only spoken to nXIII through email for quite some time now, I think he's lost most of his interest in the project.

1 question, i know that mesh blocks are only local area connection, but would the server blocks be worldwide or just local area connection like mesh?

danwoodki is right    Jonnydean's server blocks will work everywhere in the world where there is an internet connection that can access his site.... hopefully SOPA, PIPA and ACTA won't spoil this one for us too soon...
