Re: What is mesh?

It's a way to connect Scratch projects on a local network. In a mesh setup, a broadcast on one computers is sent to all of them, and variables are shared under the "sensor value" block.

It's available in several Scratch modifications or if you modify Scratch's source yourself; you can find more information about it here on the Scratch Wikismile

In Scratch 2.0, we have cloud variables, but I don't think mesh.

Re: What is mesh?

I have insanity and panther, both which have mesh but I have no idea how to use them. Also they can't upload to the scratch website yet I have seen people's projects where it is apparently mesh, how is this possible?

No, only cloud variables are in scratch 2.0, not mesh.

They are variables shared by everyone who views the project. It is a way of using mesh without the host having to give away their IP adress.
