Re: Rocket (RKT) Development thread - A new start
Okay guys, I need some help, I need to be able to make it read the file and report the contents, but also write to the file.
What I have so far is:
checkWhenDownloaded
| t1 t2 |
t1 _ 'C:/Program Files/Rocket/Files/Memory/Menu.txt'.
t2 _ 1.
t2 _ t2 , Date today.
(self readFile: t1)
= ''
ifTrue:
[self writeText: t2 toFile: t1.
^ 1].
t2 _ self readLine: 1 ofFile: t1.
t2 _ t2 + 1.
t2 _ t2 , Date today.
self writeText: t2 toFile: t1.
^ self readLine: 1 ofFile: t1
I added all the file functions shown in that code to scratch frame, I will also make it so when Rocket opens, it will change the file.
If you are reading this, please read to the end, because if you don't you won't know what's at the end. Don't just skip to the end though otherwise you won't be able to read the middle, which is most important. Now you must be wondering why you just read all that, the reason is you may have not noticed something, read it again and see if you notice it this time

LOL, if you click on the image, it will ask what exe you want to open with, it should have scratch on the list. (at least with windows.)

You used the wrong name.

Here:
What the System Browser should look like after editing it to activate Mesh.
This requires editing of Scratch's System Browser.
Shift-click the R in the Scratch logo.
Select turn fill screen off.
A white area at the bottom and right side of the Scratch program will appear. Click on the white area and select open....
Select 'browser.
The System Browser will appear. Select Scratch-UI-Panes - ScratchFrameMorph - menu/button actions - addServerCommandsTo:.
Change the "t2 ← true" text in the code to "t2 ← false".
Right-click on the System Browser and select accept. (If you are on a Mac then you will need to hold the Control key and then click).
Enter in your initials and click accept.
Close the System Browser.
Shift-click the R again and select turn fill screen on.
If you wish to save the edits to the System Browser, Shift-click the R and select save image for end-user.
If Mesh has been saved but is not wanted anymore, the steps to enable Mesh can be reverted to remove it.
To get the ← symbol, press _ ( [Shift] + [-] ).

I don't get what you mean, to have mesh you have to have it in the source code. Explain deeper.

I want a Mesh menu in my Scratch Mod. I do not want people to Shift Click. (Oh, and when I mean Souce Code, I mean a Mod.)

I suggest just saying on the thread that the person has a certain amount of time, instead of having a settime thing.

Remove the 'Next costume'. That can be done using the (costume) Boolean.

Re: Rocket (RKT) Development thread - A new start
Don't remove them. Put them as obsolete. This way your mod still works with Scratch, but the blocks can't be added.
