Re: Need help fixing lag?
maybe try deleting some of the backgrounds cause they take up lots of space.
Dear Scratch Users,
I'm done with scratch, or at least making projects. I have made one last big game, thats both fun and teaches a lesson about water. It'd mean a lot if you gave me feedback. http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/bosox397/569201

Re: Need help fixing lag?
thnx ill give it all a shot, see the problem is that this is for school xD but the school uses the old version of scratch and i use the lists in the new one. They arnt compatible so im kinda owned >.< Im not allowed to download or bring the exe to school since thats against the rules, so this is practically my only way out >.< ill get back to u guys later after i try some things. I honestly think its the music because it slows down as soon as that starts. Problem is that it wont compress anymore, least it wont when i try. You guys got any other suggestions?

Re: Need help fixing lag?
Lists and List watchers really slow things down. Also, too many Forever loops can also cause lag...maybe you can substitute Wait Until blocks in some cases.

Re: Need help fixing lag?
if your left with no other option, code optimization! if two bits of script can work in one, the put it in one! basically, strip out everything that you don't need! also, loops such as forever and repeat until etc.. does slow down things alot, so try not using two many

Re: Need help fixing lag?
its still lagging even after i tried getting rid of the things. well ill fix that later. the important thing is i think i can solve the problem by getting rid of the lists so i can make it in the 1.2.1 version we have at school. Still help with the lag would be appreciated ^.^, actually even better is a way to get all the things into another scratch file. any suggestions?
