Scratch

Can you people give me a summary of the questions and answers? i dont understand some of them.

Bump.

What specifically do you need a summary of? Which questions?

You need a summary of all of them?

Okay. My above questions got answered, but I have more:

1). What blocks do you have to identify a clone (ex. (clone #), ect...)? Not sure, ask on scimonsters thread.
2). If I create a block in Sprite 1 called "fish", will I be able to use it in Sprite 2 without copying any code? Certainly, yes.
3). I heard that there will be a video block in Scratch. What if the scratcher's computer doesn't have a camera? What will happen if a project tries to access the camera? I assume the project will fail. Epicly. Anyone planning to use that block in a project should put a warning in saying it needs a camera.
4). Will there be transparent pixels (or whatever you call them) in the vector graphics editor? There are no pixels, but transparency will be an option I believe.
5). Will there be an option to delete clones in-game? I'm pretty sure there will be, yes.
6). Which category (motion, variables, ect...) are the clone blocks in? Good question, but I'm not sure. Ask on sci's thread.
7). What additional tools will we have for collabs when Scratch 2.0 comes out? It should be easier, since collab members can just access the collab account and work on projects, since it's all in the cloud.
8). The ST recently created a code to prevent spam. How does this code prevent spam and what does it do? Not sure about that one.

I answered most of them.

If you create a block on one sprite in 2.0, it will still work on all other sprites without copying any code. Anyone planning on using the camera blocks should warn scratchers that that is what is required. Transparency will be an option for the new vector graphics editor. There will be options to delete clones in game. Collaboration will be easier, since all members of collabs will be able to access the current build of a project, instead of upload, download, modify, upload, ect. There's a summary of my answers. I could see if the others were answered by sci. No, they weren't because Ernie never asked him. Oh well, I guess that's enough questions.

Thanks, though now I have more questions!

1). Do you know of any tools in the new paint editor (for Scratch 2.0)?
2). Will sprites effected by the ghost effect be able to stamp in Scratch 2.0? When I say this, what I actually mean is will the sprite look transparent and have its stamped copy look transparent as well?
3). I heard that there will be a "backpack" feature. What's the maximum amount of items that you can put in it at a time?
4). Since Scratch 2.0 will be online, will we be able to upload music into a music file for later use in a project?
5). Will the size limit per project be increased?
6). Will there be any new special effects (ex. Ghost, ect...)?

oh my! That might have to wait till issue 4. Thanks for your contributions!

Your welcome! I was just trying to think of as many questions as I could.

Apparently I need to write some stuff for this. What?

bump. oh no, it'll be cancelled or issue 4, i guess?
