Scratch

My JS is okay, and so is my HTML5. I don't think I'll be able to help with the app, but maybe I can help with the website's other pages? Like contact us, report bugs maybe?

Or maybe I can test? I have an iPod touch, and I also have access to an iPad and iPhone. Although I think iPhone and iPod touch have the same screen size.

Remember, it's extremely hard to do it on iOS devices. First, you have to disable scrolling so it won't scroll while you try to press it. I suggest you have different sections, or at least be able to detect the device being used.

Wow! Two responses already! I personally think we should not have anymore than two or three developers because projects with more than that amount seem to die off and not get completed (like the old HTML viewer.) We could use testers for mobile devices for sure because we may not have all the devices we want to test on. I will have wait for midnightleopard to give his/her opinion before anything it official.

I can make several of the blocks already... like the "distance to [sprite]" block and such. 

function distanceto(sprite1, sprite2) {
(We want to assign X and Y positions for each sprite before blocks are executed in a class most likely, and then once after. I'll handle that later.)
return sqrt((sprite2.y - sprite1.y)^2 - (sprite2.x - sprite1.x)^2); }
(provided i got the functions right :P)

Hold on, are we using jQuery or no? If we are, a lot of the blocks should be simple...
I.e.

function clicked() {
if $().clicked {
report true; }
else {
report false; }
}

It may take me a bit to catch up though, I'm sort of trying to remember... lol..

How would you put a variable in JS in the $().clicked function? (Lol, nevermind. Time to figure this out with JS.  )

We're not? Oh. Okay.
That solves a lot of things. And yeah, that's a pain.
Gonna take me a long while to even get anywhere with this.. 

I see it. 

Technically, I should be in bed, but w.e. I'll see what I can figure out at the moment. That morphic is going to be a pain to figure out.

Your distance formula is wrong.  You've got to square the differences and add them together:

sqrt(  (x1-x2)^2 + (y1-y2)^2  )

And on the other forum Midnightleopard said you were only going to use one canvas.  Are you going to buffer your images on separate canvases?  This makes it faster to render images.  If you're not familiar with the method, you can find it here.  Basically, it is called "off-screen rendering".  You make the image on an invisible canvas and put your images (costumes?) on it. Then, instead of rendering the image onto the visible canvas, you "paste" the invisible canvas on your "real" canvas.  It doesn't make much of a difference in some browsers, but it helps tremendously on others.

Hey PF! As I said above, I'll have to wait until midnightleopard comes on to confirm before anyone joins.

Thats fine. 

YEEESSSSSSSSSSS!!!! I almost completely re-coded everything.

My bad. 

I think that I might be able to do such a thing. I am pretty good with Javascript and PHP.

I know you are talented at this sort of thing, but did you seriously think jQuery could be used in Canvas???
I have ported lots of blocks into canvas before, and we don't really need help in that area at all. Thank you.

That was my bad,  .

Well, I was thinking about trying to work on the coding for an execution engine using the pre-placed Morphic that Jens made and MathWizz had brought with him. 

Problem is, there aren't any blocks or anything yet. So I'm sort of thinking how to parse the massive array MathWizz made.
