Scratch

Yay pitch reporter! What I need is someone to make me a wait block in squeak... (Not the normal one)

erm... The online database was made by nXIII, I don't know how to take the password off the block browsing section of it, and I don't know where he is.

oh..

We have a database... and we have a half-working blockshop (I think) just... we're not handing it out yet, still in construction.

self writeText: t1 toFile: 'file name.txt'

is write TO file, are you on about CREATE file?

I made that block before.. ask Sparks for my code...

Can someone please tell me how to make a wait block in squeak!

also i'm having a huge issue, every time i download panther i extract all files then use it.  when i turn off my computer and turn it back on again, panther is nowhere to be found, i've tried everything including searching the word, "panther" which comes up with no results.  my only conclusion is that it uninstalls every time i turn my computer off.  so why is it doing this?

Because it does not have an installer, Panther is never actually installed on your computer so it can't be uninstalling itself. The panther files are just on there. I have no idea what's wrong, but I think it's your computer because we have never had this problem reported before. Try saving the Panther1.0 folder to your desktop or your my documents and see if that helps 

your animate costume block can already be done. rather than the block
"animate costume t1 to t2 with a t3 second delay"
write the script

[switch to costume t1]
|repeat t2 - t1]
|wait t3]
|next costume]
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯

so you should be able to see that the arguments t1 to t3 in your block can be replaced by my script. just put the same numbers into the script argument as you woud in the block.

lol it appeared on my computer after about an hour of me being on it, though it 100% was not there before as it appeared as a short cut in an area where it hadn't been.  i know how to animate the costumes, i made the block in byob, i was just thinking that it would be a cool addition to panther.

Though I can't use it because I don't know the programming language

So, I'm curious. What exactly is shared during mesh? Variables? Broadcasts? (It doesn't appear to share sprites, unsurprisingly)

variables and broadcasts are shared, and using custom blocks you might be able to send images or even sprites as a variable...

Variables are shared through the sensor value block, though Jd1 made a block which gets the variables differently, and in a way easier to use.

Can someone answer this question:
how to use the wait block in CYOB!!!

And:
I have made a project that can send lists over mesh! Took me along time and requires 2 blocks! Its 2 small scripts and can be found here:
The mesh list sender!

on sunday I have the pleasure of meeting bharvey, one of th BYOB programmers and general helpful guy for lunch and a chat. Do any people have any questions they would like me to pose during that time? I can't believe he came all the way from America to England 

2 please:
Can you ask him:
How does BYOB share sprites over mesh?

And:
How does the pause feature work?
