Re: Creating New Hat Blocks??? - Need Jens/NX111's answer

make your 'create sprite' block broadcast 'scratch-spritecreated'!
hard way?
ask nXIII!

hat blocks are generally created under Scratch-Blocks -> nameOfHatBlock.
but to make it easy for yourself you could simply modify the 'when i receive' hat block to take clonecreated broadcasts!

Wait...isn't that the hard way? 
I think I just made it a little syntactically nicer by making a HatBlockMorph subclass. You can just copy-paste most of the code from the green-flag-hat class (I forget what it's called)

so i find the green hat class and copy it over and change it slightly

In the title, you typed NX111, not nXIII

well, then you'll have to do one of these two things:
- make a eventhatblockmorph's subclass and make that test whether that sprite is a clone or not
- use nXIII's <i am a clone> block with the broadcast (look for it in the forums)

I think what he/she means is how they would broadcast the message to the clone when it is created. In this case, I would use the (is it eventReceived:?) method to send an event to just the newly created clone.
