Re: Cool custom blocks in Scratch

could you make a 3D floor effect block?
example:

with effect:

Wait... The only problem with custom blocks is that you cannot use them in a project you plan to share.

totally true. thanks for reminding everyone.

I am using almost all of these blocks in my new mod, Peak. You (LS97) will be the first person on the contributers list

if you could make them yourself i would be far happier. it would also be a great chance for you to learn some squeak.

If you wait a bit you can mod Blocks++

nxiii, can i have some details about that? i've been away for a while so i might not have heard of it before.

If you make a mistake when coding a custom block and when try to use block it causes an error, all of your other custom blocks (but none of the normal ones) stop working and you have to restart Scratch. It's really annoying, so can anybody tell me why it does this? Also, why is it only the other custom blocks that jam up, not the normal ones?

that's something i used to get quite frequently. my solution is to save image and close bingo/scratch, and open it again then start working on it again. i think it has something to do with the error catching, and i'm sure you could change that in the 'error' method under the 'Object' class. that doesnt mean i suggest it though  smile

im not sure what you mean by that.
if you are looking for a good Squeak tutorial, maybe this one can help. otherwise, try to explain yourself better.

Re: Cool custom blocks in Scratch

Re: Cool custom blocks in Scratch

NOTE:
There's a second, more advanced version of the block, with a drop-down menu instead of a string inserter, but it involves extra coding. If you are willing to take the challenge, post and i'll edit this tutorial for you

big_smile   can i haz?

you never sent any form to me with your username...

about the other question -
try this tutorial on squeak, it should explain it clearly enough in the red bit.

ok. note that this is for the source code. if you are using normal scratch replace the 'code' with 't1'
into Scratch-Blocks > CommandBlockMorph > all > uncoloredArgMorphFor:
add a line that looks like this:
$t = code ifTrue: [^ ChoiceArgMorph new getOptionsSelector: #timeDates].
back in ScriptableScratchMorph, create a new method with this code:

timeDates
^ #('time' 'date' 'minutes' 'seconds' 'hours' 'weekday')

now replace the blockSpec you created with ('get %t' r getDate: 'time')
it should work  smile

I did send a form to make an account on your website. I know you got the e-mail because you made a user page for me (thanks!  tongue ) Though, I think I know what I'm supposed to do.
