Tutorials anyone?

I'm bored and idealess, I've started some projects and promised some big stuff earlier that I'm no where near completing.  I have some fresh ideas but I have no real drive to make them, and if I do my old ideas will be pushed aside.

Though I have found an interest recently in helping with scripting in the All About Scratch section of the forums, and I've decided to maybe make some tutorial projects.  I've already released a platformer base tutorial a while ago and have plenty downloadable engines on my test account, and I feel I should make another.

And I want you to decide what it should be.  Something you yourself are stuck on or something you know how to do but don't think a fairly new Scratcher could accomplish, anything really.  I'll tell you if I may make your tutorial and you'll be credited in the notes for it being your idea to make the tutorial, and I may take a vote if I get enough replies on this forum.

so, what do you want as a tutorial?

Ones I've done (so you don't propose one I've done and to give you ideas for a new one, maybe expand on these):
Velocity Platormer Tutorial
Wall Jumping Engine
Rotation without using Direction blocks

Ideas Proposed:
Velocity Engine without falling far into the ground
Trigonometric Function Lesson
Velocity Scrolling

Re: Tutorials anyone?

You should make:
A velocity tutorial
How to keep a sprite from going landing inside the ground with velocity (like, drop from a high place, and land halfway through the ground)
Trigometric functions tutorial
Scrolling with velocity

^those would really be useful for new scratchers.

Hm, I've done the first, I didn't include the second in it though, and I really should have.  Those all seem fairly simple enough to make, I may use one.  I should probably put up a list of what I've done so people don't propose the same thing multiple times.

Re: Tutorials anyone?

Well, given that I only got three suggestions, I'll do a trigonometry tutorial.  It sounds the most useful to newer Scratchers.

Re: Tutorials anyone?

Ok, I have my trig tutorial finished and will probably share it tomorrow.  Thanks Sunrise-Moon for giving me the idea.  I hope people find it informative.

Re: Tutorials anyone?

Kileymeister, if you want a platformer engine, or smooth movement engine I have them...


Your music tastes are bad, therefore your argument is irrelevant.

While I appreciate the gesture, you misunderstand.  I'm not looking for tutorials, I'm making them.

Also, the Trigonometry Tutorial has been shared here!
