Scratch

No -- except for a Hamachi Mesh network.

Yeah, if you don't host a Mesh on Scratch then connect through another Scratch program, it won't work. Cause when you are already "connected" to the Hamachi network. But when you try to connect to Mesh, the Hamachi network looks for a computer hosting Mesh. But since there is none, you won't end up connecting.

What do you mean? Just give me a straight-forward answer please...

Basically, no one is hosting Mesh on Scratch. That's why it won't connect, cause it doesn't exist.

WILL YOU JUST GIVE ME A WAY TO FIX THIS?!?! [/rage]

Seriously, just how does this work?!?!

Give me a way to do it-- don't go into the details.

Host a Mesh.

Do you know how to host mesh with Scratch? (The Shift+Click the R, or use Panther/BYOB)

Yes, I know, but how does it work with Hamachi?

The same way as it works with your Local Area Network.

If you really want to know how, then I'd have to go into details.

I don't have a LAN! THAT'S WHY I'M USING HAMACHI IN THE FIRST PLACE!!! [/2ndrage]

Seriously, what's up with all these people? I believe this is wrong information.

Tell me how to connect.

Oh, my connection is Wireless, not LAN... am I just not getting the point?
Aha, it appears to work on connection to 127.0.0.1. But how does it get to Hamachi?

You are connecting through wireless to your Access Point and/or router. Your router hosts the LAN. It doesn't matter if you are connected through wireless or with a wire. You are still on a LAN. 

Have you tried connecting to Mesh locally? (with the IP 127.0.0.1)

Yes -- with no error message. But I still don't know if it's receiving the data.

It works, but if I try to broadcast something, it crashes the other program.

To test it, create a broadcast on the host, then on the client create a when I receive [that broadcast] block. On the Host, send that broadcast, if the client receives it, then it works. 

Edit: How does it crash it? Is there an error message or anything?

No, there's no error message. Scratch is just unresponsive.

Hmm. Are you admin on your computer? Windows may have automatically disabled the ability to host connections.

When you first tried Remote Sensors or Mesh, did a window pop up, saying something like "Windows has disabled some of features of this program." then it gives you some options?

Not this time, but the first time, yes.

Now, it works but it just repeats the script constantly.

No.

What do you mean?

When the broadcast is received, the script is run but is repeated. With an ASK AND WAIT block, it restarts the script without waiting to give me an input.

Is the broadcast repeating on the host?

No, but the other client that joined kept repeating it.

I don't think I need this anymore -- but I will keep this open incase anyone else might want the answer.
