Some blocks and website ideas

I think that every user should have a script count, similar to the community stats on the main page. I also think that there should be a project rating system (5 stars) to help with sorting through the bad projects and the quality ones. People should also be able to rate users.

I, as a scratch game maker (CatVsMouseand Ring Grab Game) and maker of useful tools (Dynamic Music Player/recorder) believe there are 2 blocks that would be immensely helpful:

When <> is true (a starter block)
<[Broadcast] received> (a variable block.)

Please consider these suggestions.

Re: Some blocks and website ideas

Great idea!

This has been somewhat implemented right here. You should read about it.

It's statistics, but almost what you wanted.

5 stars is ruled out by the Scratch Team, what if a new user is new and gets 1 star on a project they worked hard on? They'd leave.

Rating users: Same thing

You can replace "When <> is true" with:
[blocks]
<forever if>
<end>
[/blocks]
And "when i recieve <> " is impossible because it would only be true in the millisecond that a broadcast is sent, it is of no use.


The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.
