No Need for IF MOUSE DOWN AND TOUCHING MOUSE POINTER GO TO MOUSE

A lot of you probably have struggled with having to make a project having to do with dragging by doing it OVER AND OVER again.

Well, there is no need for that ANYMORE!

Click on the sprite you want to drag

Look where you can re-name the sprite.

Next to it, you will see a little lock.

Click on it, and it will unlcok.

That button made it so you can drag the sprite around ON THE WEBSITE!

Not everybody!  I saw a project just a week or so ago that was still using scripts to do simple sprite dragging.  So, it's maybe a good idea to remind people  smile

Some people still use the scripts for, uh, other reasons. For example, I don't really like the "when [___v] clicked" block, so I almost always use scripts instead of that.
