Project notes don't match up
I've found that when downloading projects, the project notes in the offline project often differ from those found online.
It first showed up with my Scape project - because I live in two different houses, I often had to download to make small updates. When I shared the project again, the project notes differed from what I had written online. My guess is that it was because I completely rewrote my project notes online, but it wasn't put into the downloadable file.
I recently found the same issue with JSO's "Scratch Resources is Out!" project - when remixing, the project notes were missing one line. As I suspected before, it was probably from rewriting the project notes online.

So what's up with this?

Re: Project notes don't match up
Maybe he added that part in online, but it wasn't originally on the project. Download a project that has *Updates* or something on it to see if it does the same. I suggest the front page

That's an old glitch.

Re: Project notes don't match up
That happens to me EVERY TIME I upload a project.... If I make something like this in the project notes:
I made this because I want to make a 3D FPS with enemys that can be set to a position on an X, Y, Z grid.
It's a little off online so I recommend downloading it.
(from my most recent project)
It looks like this online:
I made this because I want to make a 3D FPS with enemys that can be set to a position on an X, Y, Z grid.It's a little off online so I recommend downloading it.
It's really annoying!

For that, you just have to edit the project notes to make the line breaks appear again 
You don't even have to change anything in the project notes. Though, that should be fixed, too.

Re: Project notes don't match up
Haha, yeah, I noticed that too when I was remixing JSO's project 
. Perhaps it only keeps the original project notes, and only after did he add the remix message.

Re: Project notes don't match up
You can edit the project notes online, but when you download the project it'll give you the project notes that were used when the project was uploaded, not the latest project notes.

Ah - I mentioned that in my first post, maybe I wasn't clear enough.
They really should fix that, don't you think?
