The “database” you see is really a preview of a subset of the data in that collection, and as you said, it is more for dev/test purposes. We would suggest you show its content using the table that comes with the database.

@jeffreyrb03-gmail

We are still doing research on that.

Thank you for clarifying. We will be supporting add-ons (Scratch version or Turbowarp version), so this feature will be supported when that happens.

griffpatch called The Variable Hack

That video is suggesting exactly what I’m suggesting: create a new variable for this sprite itself and then use it to swap out the old shared variable. So which part you are not agreeing?

@jeffreyrb03-gmail

These are great ideas. We will work on them. Thank you.

@mod-squadacademy-1bc96c56

as @Tyller_ pointed out, when you request to change a variable’s scope from shared to “this sprite only”, it is not clear what to do with blocks using this variable in other sprites. Some user might want to delete those blocks, some may want to keep them but using a separate shared variable.

It is much cleaner to do it in a 2-step approach:

1. create a new variable for this sprite only
2. swap the existing variable to use this new variable (this is the dialog box from Turbowarp that I showed above)

Would you agree?

On Turbowarp, you can right-click a variable in the block palette to open this dialog box. On CreatiCode, we don’t have it yet. We are researching if this is the best solution, or if we can do better.

@mod-squadacademy-1bc96c56

Can you please give us the link of the studio you are looking at? There are some studios with projects that you don’t have access to.

We will need to check if there is a real bug and fix it if so. thank you.

@011830-0a42ef84

Are you referring to this tool on Turbowarp? It allows you to use another variable to replace the selected variable in the current sprite only.
