I personally don't like the idea of using unconventional languages to do things which could be accomplished using language which were designed for it. Flash or Java would be OK, like how they made the viewer with Java, and Flash to make the new test version.

This is a famous term:

Think outside the box.

Yeah, same. Are we still thinking of re-creating it from the ground up? Or just sticking to modding Scratch, I can't remember.

I love the idea of ground-up development, though as nXIII is the only one on our team capable of that level of smalltalk coding, It depends on what he wants to do tongue

Hey guys!

Where can I download Panther?

I actually already have it, on another computer, but I need it right now. big_smile

make it so that theres a block thats like an inbetween thing like

__ to __
and then you put numbers there

hmm Maybe someone could create it as a custom block, but I don't think thats required as a default block, you could easily just have all the numbers you need in a list and have something check the list.

When does 1.1 come out?

Blockshop?

It depends how long it takes for us to fix the custom block exporting glitch.

Blockshop has, I think, been rendered obselete by the block library. Which is cross platform friendly and works with 1.0.

rubiks_cube_guy238 · 2010-12-28 16:10:15

I just fixed the glitch which makes custom C-blocks not work:

Code:

!CommandBlockMorph methodsFor: 'accessing'!
selector

customBlock ifTrue: [^ #doCustomBlock].
    ^ selector
! !


!ScratchProcess methodsFor: 'private-special forms'!
doCustomBlock

Compiler evaluate: ((stackFrame expression customBlockCode)) for: self logged: false.
! !

Where does that go? Math or nXIII need to see this so we can add it to the image!

Neat piece of code, RCG! Thanks!

You put the code in a workspace, and 'file it in' (highlight code, right-click, 'more...', 'file it in').

floppy_gunk · 2011-01-05 22:05:58

This may be too hard, but could you add an menu option that prevents the stage from updating unless you use an 'update stage' block? It would make Scratch almost as fast as most programming languages! (if I properly understand the cause of Scratch's slowness)

Jonathanpb · 2011-01-06 00:40:18

Is Panther still being worked on? If so, when will the next version be released? :3

I remember when Panther was released and I downloaded it... ah big_smile

sparks · 2011-01-06 04:06:28

Still being working on... very slowly.

sparks · 2011-01-07 18:16:57

For those of you interested, I posted information on an up-and-coming (I hope) version of Panther under developmenthere

floppy_gunk · 2011-01-17 01:33:37

You should delete the last line in the deletingWatcher method. It doesn't seem to do anything, and just raises an error.

scimonster · 2011-01-17 02:09:44

how about, for the (contents of file at URL [http://]) block, have it report the contents of the page instead of the source.

scimonster · 2011-01-17 02:12:43

I think that Panther is not as developed as BYOB. It could be much better with a proper installer and uninstaller, like scratch and BYOB.

That would be very tricky. It would mean that Panther would have to have its own HTML parser, and then there would be the problem of some web pages using PHP and other markup languages.

yes, but what if...
it would make some things so much easier.
what can you do with the source anyways?

Thats because Panther is only on V1.0 whereas BYOB is V3.0, Panther is being revised and updated for V1.1.

bbbeb · 2011-01-17 14:03:40

The whole "parser" issue: look for the < and > symbols. That should work, right?
I made a project that writes the source out to a .txt document! big_smile

sparks · 2011-01-17 14:52:41

Bad news, my Laptop just crashed like you wouldn't believe. Trying to back up files and fix the stupid thing sad Won't be on till I fix it, however long that might be.
