What is turbo mode?

It sorta messes up my game, but that's all I know.

It makes the scripts work faster.

It speeds thing up, but it won't speed it up if it has a

wait (0) secs
block.

Re: What is turbo mode?

Scratch executes each block as a frame. Normally there are around 30-40ish frames per second.
Turbo mode speeds things up by executing more blocks per second. However, if there is a wait _ secs block, it executes it normally by waiting that time.
So if you depend on Scratch's frame rate for the timing of your project, it may get messed up in turbo mode.

Turbo mode just speeds up your project (I believe you shift-click the green arrow to activate it).
