I'm making a mesh game sorta like club penguin or ourworld
I can't figure out how to make the mesh work! What variables or broadcasts do I need to make it so that on the other computer I can see the other person?
I have 2 computers that I'm using to test it.

Re: I'm making a mesh game sorta like club penguin or ourworld
Would this Mesh guide help?
Well, first you need to start a Mesh session on one computer, and have the other computer join it. Read about that in the above link.
Broadcasts are received on both computers during a Mesh session - it's simple.
For variables, use the ([slider] sensor value) block. Take a look at the drop-down menu - if the computers are in a Mesh session, each computer will list the other computer's variables in the drop-down list.
Any questions?

I am currently working on something similar. It is very hard but will have a good result if you try. You have to know Scratch VERY well.

hey, give credit to the team...
but yeah, its difficult. and not to be rude, but frankly based on what i've seen of your projects, this may be an over-ambitious leap. you should try doing something less complicated first. a full fledged mesh MMOG like johnnydean1 and I (and some others) are working on requires a LOT of variables and setup...even just to get the other player to show up on your screen. if you are adding in things like chat, inventory, and appearance changes, it can get incredibly complex.

Me? I sorta get bored programming things, but if I was forced to do it, I could make cool things.
I'm just a lazy person. I know scratch well, I just don't show it XD
BTW: This isn't a Full-Fledged MMOG, it's just like a start with mesh. You just talk and go to places, but i'm gonna update it more and more until it becomes more advanced.
