Sloooooooow Variables!

Here's the glitch:

Say you make project that counts milliseconds, so you create a variable called milliseconds, and make these scripts:

But when you play the scripts, it's really slow!

So I obviously put it on turbo speed (But can turbo speed work online? Please answer!)

But when I try and do the same but with Microseconds (0.000001 secs), and it's on turbo speed:

Again, it's really slow!

Please help!

Re: Sloooooooow Variables!

It takes some time for Scratch to do the scripts. Don't worry.

In the meantime, you should use the timer.

Re: Sloooooooow Variables!

Scratch can't really do waits that are less then 0.001 accurately because of lag just from running a script.

Re: Sloooooooow Variables!

A block already takes 0.01 seconds (on average).

So I don't think you can do that.
