GP Beta Test Forum

Hmm. I'd have expected that, by analogy with normal usage, "neighbors" would not not include the person talking. That is, if I said "My neighbors are ..." I would list Debbie, Fernando, and Liz, but not myself. I totally agree with that To use a house analogy - the default is only reporting other p...

I can follow all the logic of that - I'll just have to stick with using its by expanding with black arrow to * to find neigbours Having said that I follow it, I fail to understand why the default doesn't return ALL instances. I'm thinking that GP has implict behaviour that doesn't match with my naiv...

Following other discussion I think I've nailed down what doesn't work for me that I think should

I think the first should give list <gpclass> and the 2nd should return list <arrowclass>

(using * for parameter works as expected - returns list <gpclass>)

Well I'm thinking animate could end up being the new forever if :)

A useful block but really shouldn't be there :)

As you know I'm a long term Scratcher and some recent Python experience (did C++/VB a long long time ago) So Scratch disguises some high CS stuff by the sprite paradigm. Now I'd term sprites as basically objects but missing some ways of interacting with them BYOB/Scratch2 came along with clone conce...

If you extend the block, it has an asterisk "*" in the "class" field by default; that means it will return all instances, of any class, that overlap with the caller. I've been try and trying and not getting anywhere and now it works all the time :) The gremlins inside my machine mare playing with m...

Yes please but... I don't normally use it that way - I reset it at some point in a script and then use the duration for something sometime later. e.g Green flag/Go would reset a game to initial state and then user would press spacebar to start playing/action - that's the point I'd want to reset the ...

They go on restarting GP

And now I can't repeat fault so lets see if it happens again

My classes from previous project are still on this selection list on a new project

You can turn any loop into a loop that works like animate by adding a "wait" block with no argument. A no-argument wait block just waits until the next display cycle. Aah :) In that case, I'm thinking maybe remove animate block and just use the wait Actually I'd get rid of "animate" and add "wait f...
