ITopic: Suggest more ITopics (stickies) for Advanced Topics

If you feel there are a few things missing from the index topic of Advanced Topics (the sticky in this forum), please post threads you feel are appropriate to be eternalized over here, and we'll consider.

Keep in mind, however, that more Index Topics, or ITopics, will mean that less people will actually view the individual threads, so post sparingly. As with the All About Scratch forum, if there is already an ITopic about that particular topic, feel free to add to it by posting in that thread.

The Panther thread?

It has more posts than even the BYOB sticky.

Can people suggest their own topics?

Re: ITopic: Suggest more ITopics (stickies) for Advanced Topics

I would like to see an official block library sticky to replace the many ones that have arisen and haven't been greatly conrtibuted to. I thinking it will be a great way for people to learn about block code, and share their block ideas. It would cater for all the current mods out there. I think if it is sticked, people will be more likely to share it, and people could also suggest code they want made?

I know the thread is by me, but if people think it's good enough, you might like to consider stickying my block library thread.

Not really sticky, more of ITopic-ify

Of course! No promises, though.

Re: ITopic: Suggest more ITopics (stickies) for Advanced Topics

How about my topic here: The anatomy of a Scratch block

I think it is a pretty good introduction into what goes on here in Advanced topics.

Okay... I'll suggest my Mesh guidebig_smile  I feel guilty suggesting my own topic though... ^_^

EDIT: Wait... Mesh isn't important enough for ITopics, right?  yikes

Mesh is an advanced topic. So it does deserved to be ITopic-ified

Re: ITopic: Suggest more ITopics (stickies) for Advanced Topics

I recommend spark's block library. It contains code for making blocks by editing Scratch, building blocks in BYOB, and creating blocks in Panther. This is a very good resource - please add it!  smile

Hm... I'm very close to adding that to the ITopic. Thanks for bringing this to my attention! I'll consider some more, and maybe I'll add it as an ITopic sometime tomorrow or so - the Scratch Team has given me the go-ahead.

i found no threads that really took on this topic as this focuses more on squeak than on basic codes such as mesh enabling or simple block codes. this means that scratchers are then almost 'auto-sufficient' and can take on a modding project with more experience. it povides us with better quality mods.

That's a good point, too. We definitely need a good squeak tutorial here. We'll consider that, as well as the block library. They sort of go hand in hand with eachother, no?

That's because everyone can make BYOB blocks, while not everyone knows Squeak.  smile

Re: ITopic: Suggest more ITopics (stickies) for Advanced Topics

I'm just bringing up sparks's block library - a while ago it was said that it needed more blocks. Well, there are tons of them now! Please consider it for ITopic'ing. It's so useful!  smile
