Is Scratch Object-Orientated?
From what i've seen, you cannot create new objects of the exact same type like in, for example, Java.
For example, lets say I'm making a shooter game. There are three waves, and every wave would spawn 12 robots coming for your base. Would I have to make 3 dozen robots that are assigned to their own broadcasts, or can I create new robots off of a "base" robot to save time and effort?
Sorry if this is in the wrong section, I'm somewhat new here

In 1.4, you'd have to create each robot individually. In 2.0, you can base them off of one.

It's as Firedrake969 says. Was quite curious when I saw your post title (using scratch when you know Java?)

To create the three dozen robots quicker there is a duplicate tool. This sort of achieves what you want.
