@info-creaticode I just figured out my error. Sadly, it is embarrassing but something my students do more than I like. I was coding my sprite under the stage section not with the sprite. I’ve moved the code and now it works. I am eye rolling myself while laughing. Thank you for reaching out (also, I am not sure why my screenshots did not post originally).

@info-creaticode

Thanks a lot!

@bruhisch-gmail said in What are reward points doing?:

And what can I do if I got rewarded?

We are still experimenting with a few options. Will announce more details in the future.

@jaysen4games-gmail

Yes, that’s most likely due to a timeout from a long idle period.

@jaysen4games-gmail

Hi, the wait block simply waits some time, and the time period can be specified by different units, where a frame is assumed to be 1/60 seconds. It does not account for the actual number of frames since it does not have that information.

If you need to run some code at fixed intervals, a better choice might be this block:

a3ace60e-f760-427f-b415-e1cf9b179f67-image.png

This block will try to run a new iteration by the fixed time interval, no matter how long it takes to finish each iteration.

If that does not work for your project, please share the project with us, and we can probably figure out a working solution for you.

CreatiCode Support

@jaysen4games-gmail

You are welcome. There are just too many possible values to show them in a dropdown.

@tyller_

We can confirm the textbox will not handle the \n separated string on iPads as new lines at the moment. It is added to our list for future fixes. Thanks for reporting this issue.

@blakelanden112-gmail

Yes, it is still in Beta test, and we are improving it based on user feedback.

oh… I found it in my 2D project and it woks! Thanks for helping me, guys! For leting me know that
this butten even exists, thanks!

@tyller_

You are right, it will return “” when no 3D object is under the 2D point you specified. For a reference project, please check out this:

@info-creaticode thank you

@info-creaticode good to know, thank you!

This new block has been added. Here is a demo project on how to use it to add additional objects to an existing SPS:

@info-creaticode oh okay, good to know that they’re not intended for use by everyone

@ashleyboivin-lannaist-ac

That is the content of the variable “story”. You can remove it from the stage window by unchecking this checkbox for “story”:

It looks like this project was only saved partially so it couldn’t be correctly parsed. We’ll investigate how to recover it. Sorry about that.

@info-creaticode I do not recall if I created my account as Student or Teacher. How can I check this? I see the service to Create a Classroom so I assume that I have signed up as a Teacher.

When I click submit button I get error:

@tyller_

Hi, sorry for the delay. We haven’t determined the proper rate limit on the cloud variables yet. So currently there is no limit, but we will update that when we see load issues.

In terms of multiplayer game, we strongly suggest using the multiplayer blocks, which would handle most of the common tasks for multiplayer games. The tutorial will be posted in a few days.

@info-creaticode I was using your 3-d maze. But, ok! Thank you.

@011830-0a42ef84

Sorry about that. We will put in a fix later today.

@ldelabruere-gmail

Hi Lucie,

You are right. Only users who have signed in can use the ChatGPT blocks. That’s partly because we need to monitor any users who abuse this feature and take action.

Any user can easily sign up for free with a valid email address, or they can log in directly using Google login.

You can also create a class with new student accounts for free, and then assign them to your students: https://www.forum.creaticode.com/topic/547/teacher-only-how-to-manage-students-in-the-my-class-page

Hi, there are a few tutorials that talk about using your own models as “community models”. Please check them out:

CreatiCode

@khot78-gmail

Your program looks fine. The checkmark is automatically added by our server to indicate that is the end of the stream, since there is no other way for you to tell whether more text is coming from the server.

You can double-check it by examining the value of the “response” variable after some chats:

CreatiCode

@info-creaticode Aw man! Thank you though.

@011830-0a42ef84

Please follow these steps:

Step 1: On the MIT scratch website, select “File” -> “Save to your computer”, which will download an “*.sb3” file. Note its location on your computer.

beee791f-d5a6-40ce-904e-dcfb322038dc-image.png
 

Step 2: On the CreatiCode website, create a new project.

Step 3: Select “File” -> “Load from your computer”, then select the sb3 file, then it should load the project with the correct blocks/assets/name:

efbabe1f-921a-4d61-ba32-00cf66ab5b30-image.png
 

Note that if you are not the author of the original Scratch project, please add a link to that original project in the “Notes and Credits” area.

@info-creaticode Ok, thank you. Sorry if I’m a bit anoying

@011830-0a42ef84

Not sure I get your point. I have updated the demo project to place the arrow at x=100 and y=100. It still correctly points tot he green ball.

Maybe you can share your project?

@golligav000-5c0727bb

Noted. Thank you for the feedback and suggestions. As you know, our main target users are K-12 students learning coding and AI, so we will prioritize features that support this objective.

@thebrickmaster626-f522560b

Can you explain what kind of joystick? Do you have an example or a picture?

These problems will be fixed within 2 days. Sorry.

@info-creaticode said in Quick question.:

@106809-mygccs

BTW you can also “publish” your project instead of sharing it, which will keep your source code private.

Oh, I didn’t know that, I thought it just meant the same thing. Ty!

@011830-0a42ef84

That should be fine. thanks for checking

@tyller_

Noted. Thanks

@106809nes sorry you’re right

@info-creaticode hm ok, thank you for the clarification!

@info-creaticode ok, thank you! I’ll make sure to use those

@info-creaticode Thanks!

@jeffreyrb03-gmail

Yes. Most likely, you had the hat as the “selected sprite object” instead of the person, so when you use a motion block, the hat is moved.

@luna Sigh…

@011830-0a42ef84

This would be an interesting game/tutorial. We can do it but it will take a while on the queue of things. If you want to start now, you can try to use our AI assistant “XO”. It is pretty good at handling project planning, but usually you get better results if you divide your request into small questions.

@011830-0a42ef84

It is working normally now. Can you please try to reload the page?

@011830-0a42ef84 i support that, but Idk if Creaticode would say on the matter.

@011830-0a42ef84

The “when this sprite clicked” block works for clones, since clones are also sprites.

Also, this is a good question that you can ask our AI assistant “CreatiCode XO”, so you do not have to wait for answers here.

For example, you can ask XO this question: how to make a clone of a sprite say “hi” when it is clicked?

One possible response is the following program with explanations:

6348e856-f188-43bc-bab5-1bb10a05eb28-image.png

Explanation:

Create Clone: The create clone of [myself v] with ID [1] block creates a clone of the sprite with a unique ID (in this case, ‘1’). You can use any ID you’d like.

When I Start as a Clone: This block initializes the behavior for clones. It ensures the following script applies only to clones, not the original sprite.

When This Sprite Clicked: This block detects when any clone is clicked.

Say Block: The say [hi] for (2) seconds block makes the sprite say “hi” for 2 seconds when clicked.

@luna said in Uhm...:

JAWNY

it doesnt have any bad words so sure

Ok, it worked. Ish. the players are locked in a small area. they cant get powerup. Ill GIF it.

Ok? Ill try.

Huh… ok, something besides a watermark? a free bunch of start-up projects?

@jeffreyrb03-gmail lol alr. not that shocking.
but I devoted to that website until some idiots (joking I love them but its annoying at times) decided to block it, so I moved here.

I also may or may not have used the forums for 3+ years, aswell…

@black-cat
lol okay

@info-creaticode Oh, okay

@amanda-12368f30 said in Can someone please help me:

@black-cat He is helping me but no one is not answering this question: how do you make a advance platformer?

Can you give some more details? Any example game? Is it 2D or 3D? Also, did you try to ask the CreatiCode XO assistant?

https://www.forum.creaticode.com/topic/1103/creaticode-xo-ai-assistant-new-project-design

Also, here is an example that uses 2D physics engine:

https://www.forum.creaticode.com/topic/1037/2d-physics-geometry-bounce-game-difficulty-4

And you can also follow this more complicated tutorial by griffpatch:

@jeffreyrb03-gmail

This can be done by setting a “negative scale” with the “update scale” block, and it even supports animations (though you probably don’t need it in this case).

For example:

CC said that there are enough mods. And if we’re overwhelmed, they’ll add another one.

@info-creaticode
Okay.

@jeffreyrb03-gmail

Thanks for the explanation. XO doesn’t really take much computation or memory resource, so likely this is because the XO server is blocked by your school.

@jeffreyrb03-gmail

It should not be used to store real secrets like passwords. The reason is that this block runs on the “client” side (the user’s browser), so when the data is sent over the Internet to the webserver, it is exposed in the network package.

However, for most games/projects you build for learning, it should be good enough.

The “private” mode is meant to store data specific for one user. Say 100 users are running your shared game. Suppose each of them can specify a secret passcode that can be used to save or load game progress. You can use this block and use the “private” mode, so the data is separated by user ID, and 2 users can’t see each other’s data.

@cattyplayzy I honestly think databases (with the source code hidden of course) would be 1000x easier and more convienient to do.

@cattyplayzy said in How would one implement a swear word/inappropriate message filter in their project?:

How would they get a source code?

also with this, honestly some people need to write their own code. It’s good to take code from others, but when the source code is hidden for something, then you just have to accept that and try to recreate it using what you already know. Unless of course you like reverse engineer something to hack it

@info-creaticode Ahhh yes, thats pretty good

@s9205307-810c679a

The example project above has been updated to create 2 clones of each box, and set up the fixed relative position constraint between them.

@jeffreyrb03-gmail

yes, in theory, the “carve” block would allow you to remove all other models and keep only the model you need. However, it will be extremely slow given the complexity of the existing model collection

@info-creaticode 👍

(edit): ok thanks!

@011830-0a42ef84

Your project is loading fine now.

There is one issue that you need to fix. Since you are working with the 2D physice engine, you need to use blocks from the “2D physics” category. Currently it is using the “apply force” block for 3D physics. You can tell the color is different for 3D related blocks.

@info-creaticode Got it

@jeffreyrb03-gmail any that I use with creaticode I have the project not shared, if I really want to share it to some ppl I can just use my alt to host and share with friends and only friend ppl who I truely trust. Plus for security with perms you can lock a table if you still want it writable, I use that just to ensure I don’t wipe my data tables

@tyller_ i did that but it stayed frozen in the air

@011830-0a42ef84

That’s strange. Are you trying at school? It might be blocked. Can you share a screenshot?

@info-creaticode Thank you
