Things that aren't going to happen, so please don't keep asking.

I noticed that there are several threads about things that the Scratch team has continuously said "no" to, so please stop asking about them:

Live chat:
This is a breeding ground for cyber-bullying

Running Scratch projects as standalone applications:
In most cases, this would hide the source code, breaking the license.

Letting us disable the 'download' button on projects:
Again, this would hide the source code.

Can a Scratch team member continue this thread?

NETSCRATCH!!!! so many ppl keep posting about it and its annoying


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

Could You Give Out The Source Code and then would that break the license?

It can be boolean! It would say yes or no if it's been broadcasted! And if you heard that it won't happen from Archmage, he would rather use 2 or more scripts instead of 1 block!

Thing is, its NOT a boolean (true/false, not yes/no) and if you really have to put it in a if statement do something like this
<when I receive[ X
<set{ xbroadcast }to( 1

<when green flag clicked>
<forever>
<if> <{ xbroadcast }> = 1
<set{ xbroadcast }to( 0
SCRIPT

Yes, I totaly agree with this! If I was the scratch team I think I would get pretty annoyed.

There is your boolean broadcast.

Things like this should not be true or false though. It would mess you up when you try to use functions in other languages.

Also about your other statement, I try to have my code as compact as possible actually.
When possible, like with the move to x,y block, I try to use as few blocks as possible. Sometimes it appears that I use too much code but this is usually for added functionality or to make it easier to program.


Hi, I am Archmage coder extraordinaire. I do Scratch,pascal,java,php,html, AS2 and AS3. Leave me a message if you want coding advice. Also check out my personal website, lots of good stuff about web development, Flash, and Scratch (v1 and v2) !

Private Messages. Same as "Live Chat" perhaps...


http://i52.tinypic.com/5es7t0.png I know what you're thinking! "Neptune! Get rid of those filthy advertisements and give us back the Zarathustra siggy, you horrible person!" Well, don't worry about it, the Zara siggy will be back soon, new and improved! ^^ Meanwhile, just do what the sig tells you to. >.>
