Scratch

Okay, thanks, but how do I use the data I get from the mesh? Where does it show up?

near the bottom of the sensing tab there's a ([sensor A] value) block or something similar. Once you connect to mesh, the variables in the other project will appear in that dropdown.

Yes, that does work, though it gets pretty annoyed when you reload the project after saving, personaly I prefer to use that (Get [variable v] from mesh) reporter of Jd1's.

I always wondered how jd's block was different to the one supplied with scratch, but I do have the block code somewhere. I'm at school right now, I'll post the CYOB code ASAP when I get home.

Ill see if Ive got a copy of my sensing block. In future if you want a block made/want me to get the code for a block post a comment on one of my projects.

EDIT:
Input1:
get $String$ from mesh

Input2:
-r

Input3:
|inmesh t2 t3|

    (t3 _ self ownerThatIsA: ScratchFrameMorph) ifNil: [t3 _ (self ownerThatIsA: OffscreenWorldMorph) frame].
    (t2 _ t3 workPane scratchServer) ifNil: [t2_ false.].
    t2 = false
ifTrue: [
inmesh_ false.
]
ifFalse:
[
inmesh_ true.
].


inmesh = true
ifTrue: [
^ self sensor: (t1).
]
ifFalse: [
^ 0.
].


EDIT No.2

Try this:

|inmesh t2 t3 sensors part2 |
part2_ true. "Set to false for old one"

    (t3 _ self ownerThatIsA: ScratchFrameMorph) ifNil: [t3 _ (self ownerThatIsA: OffscreenWorldMorph) frame].
    (t2 _ t3 workPane scratchServer) ifNil: [t2_ false.].
    t2 = false
ifTrue: [
inmesh_ false.
]
ifFalse:
[
inmesh_ true.
].


inmesh = true
ifTrue: [
part2 = true
ifTrue: [
sensors_ self hookupSensorNames.
sensors_ sensors asString.
sensors_ self indexOf: (t1) startingAt: (0) in: (sensors).
sensors = 0
ifTrue: [
inmesh_ false.
].

].
inmesh = true
ifTrue: [
^ self sensor: (t1).
].
]
ifFalse: [
^ 0.
].

thanks for the helpful post, jd   

I checked our archive, and we have this block submitted by you which I think is the one you're on about:

Code:

get $String$ from mesh               -

Code:

|inmesh t2 t3| (t3 _ self ownerThatIsA: ScratchFrameMorph) ifNil: [t3 _ (self ownerThatIsA: OffscreenWorldMorph) frame]. (t2 _ t3 workPane scratchServer) ifNil: [t2_ false.]. t2 = false ifTrue: [ inmesh_ false. ] ifFalse: [ inmesh_ true. ]. inmesh = true ifTrue: [ ^ self sensor: (t1). ] ifFalse: [ ^ 0. ].

Its different because you don't have to be in a mesh to get the block, thats why I like it.

Sorry to intervene, but this is the Panther development thread and none of the recent conversations have anything to do with Panther for a while.

Wow.

That was the 3000th post.

ok again 

Im waiting for 1.1 to make anything

On a percentage scale, how close is Panther 1.1 to completion?

hey guys, i've created a sequel to m zombie game and made it exclusively for panther, you can view it here; http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/PlayWithFire/1377449

just wanted to say that me making my zombie game, red dawn awakening 2, exclusively for panther is me showing my support for you guys, keep up the great work!

oh and i've linked any people who don't own panther to your website so that they can download it.

sounds cool!

could i get panther's email?  or whoever's email i should email it too 

Hows 1.1 going
