HELP with some sensing issues and another problem.

Hi Fellow Scratchers,

I'm quite new to Scratch and am being ambitious with my 1st project to say the least.

I am working on a DJing game which I have a latest rough version of here...
http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/HybridRules/192695

I am trying to add some sensing to the record decks. I've set up some variables to monitor the degrees and turns here.

http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/HybridRules/195960

When you download and preview it. You click on the record which spins and every 360 degrees, makes the turn +1. When you hold the mouse over and click down it should stop the record (Although this doesn't work for some reason when you try it on the scratch wesbite??..Any help there would be appreciated too.) and follow the mouse. When it reaches 360 degrees, it makes turn +1.

What I am trying to do is create it so when you move click and move the record backwards, it makes the turn -1.

I hope I have explained it well enough....and for those who clicked this when it said "Hi".....I'm sorry I pressed the wrong button.

Thanks for any help.

HybridRules.

Re: HELP with some sensing issues and another problem.

what kind of help do you need?

I've taken a long hiatus, but I still visit sometimes. Give me some time to answer any messages you post on my projects!

Re: HELP with some sensing issues and another problem.

Hi demosthenes,

I am trying to make it so when the record turns clockwise 360 degrees it makes the turn +1 and when it is turned anti clockwise 360 degrees, it makes the turn -1.

I've tried playing around with it and I'm sure it's simple enough to figure it out, but I am stumped. I've used <direction> and the <degree> variables but I'm lost...

Hope this helps and thanks.

Re: HELP with some sensing issues and another problem.

AAaarrgggghhhh!! More help needed....

http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/HybridRules/196167

When I test the project in Scratch, it's all works perfectly. Holding the mouse down over the record, it should point in the direction of the mouse.

When I publish it on the website, when you hold the mouse down nothing happens?

Anyone come across this or can help me out. If you need to download it, please feel free.

There are some annoying differences between what happens on the web and what happens in Scratch.  One of the most annoying is that the Click event happens on Mouse Down in Scratch but happens on Mouse Up on the web!  This can really screw things up (as you have seen).  So, on the web, the click even doesn't fire until the mouse button is released and then your forever loop test will fail.  Here is my remix ...

Re: HELP with some sensing issues and another problem.

Hi Guys,

I have another problem which is occurring, although I get a feeling it might be a technical problem with Scratch on the web.

I have created a Deck 1 & 2 slider for my DJing project which works perfectly well in Scratch but as soon as I upload it to the web, it stops working.

http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/HybridRules/202044

What is suppose to happen, is when you start, both tracks are playing, when slide the bar is moved either left or right, it plays either deck 1 or 2. This is done by marking the sliders movements and creating the variables of decks 1 and 2 and assigning them to the volume of the both tracks.

Does the Volume Set/Change work in realtime? Or is it a issue with Scratch on the web.

If you download it, you will see how it should work.

Thanks Fellow Scratchers

Re: HELP with some sensing issues and another problem.

I forgot to mention that the volume sliders work in realtime when downloaded, but not at all when on the web.

Hope that makes sense.
