ingame code "create object" and "source code"

I have thought of a game. Unfortunately to complete it i need a new code that spawns sprites. It would also be helpful for other peoples games. My game is boring with only a couple bad-guys. The code would simply create another sprite in-game with the same codes that were in the sprite. Also you should include source code for pro scratchers'
games. People may have noticed scratch has limited things you can make. Source code may also make it easier for novice coders looking for a free program. It might also attract attention to the site.

Re: ingame code "create object" and "source code"

I can definitely see the advantage of being able to create sprites within Scratch - it has been suggested before and really is necessary.

I am not sure what you mean by source code, though - care to elaborate?

I'm making a Scratcdh mod -- Blocktalk, but it probably won't be out for a long time...  smile

I think Panther has sprite cloning - maybe you could try that?  hmm

Hmph enjoy your fall - I get a lovely spring... without pans of new leaves.

source code- like java and lua and c# and C++.

You mean turn the projects into those languages? That would be excruciatingly difficult as the projects were never in that language to begin with…

well source code is already available as squeak, but you can't share it in projects. it would be nice if scratch implemented a way of doing so.
