How do i use the numpad in scratch. (If possible)

Is it possible to use the numpad? because im wanting to make a 2 player game, and i dont want the key board to be cramped,

The keys im using are the arrows keys and 1 and 2 for the player one. With the WSDA keys, with J and H for player 2. But the numpad isn;t responding, with num lock on or off.

Is the numpad compatible with scratch at all?!

Just use the numbers 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 that go on the front, and Scratch should work with them.

You also need Numlock to be activated.

better than nothing. you could use a variable to indicate motion for them.
