@c I doubt it, it’s a personal computer controlled by my parents by they ARE trying to help me progress my coding career

@tyller_ oh yeah sometimes putting an invisible HTML element in the middle of a word helps. That site actually isnt blocked and I’ll keep it in mind for file stuff, thank you!

@the_true_odst It is somewhat top down. I suppose you could just alter the general placement to fit your game.

This New Ocean 2.0 - Major Content Update

Release date: TBA

What’s New

AI

Finished V1 of the AI The AI can now damage players. The AI will not be visible unless they are within a certain distance of the player. Begun work of adding statistics to different ships Increased the number of bots on the map. Widen the area at which bots spawn by 250% and further increased the distance of which they spawn from each other.

Player

Begun work of adding different statistics to different ships Begun live testing of guided missiles

Buildings

Begun work for settlements to attack enemy ships Added a new building: Port Provides the highest resource rate of any building up to this version, and is the first major resource production building to have defenses.
Statistics Population Growth Rate: 15 Resource Rate: 250 Defense: 3/10

Planets

Added 6 new planet Designs Added 6 new planet surfaces

Sounds

Added voice-lines. Added 6 new soundtracks for fighting enemies

Bug Fixes
There are no bug fixes.

This update is to focus on adding content and testing content.

The AI has played a key part in the game’s development. This version would complete the first working alliteration of the AI.

Since there are different variations of ships the player can use, these ships should have different statistics that should stand out from others. Thus, the Battlecuriser and the Battleship will have their own statistics.

To provide an alternative to machine gun fights, guided missiles will added. During all of 2.0’s live updates, each will mark a new testing stage for these missiles. Expect the game to break or mess up during these live updates.

Introducing the first new building to the game: The Port. For those who want to make a large investment for their settlement, this would be for you! Provides a whopping 250 resources per 5 seconds. It’s also the first major resource building with a form of defense against enemies.

Along with some new planet designs and enemies, this will be one of the few massive updates the game will get.

The next update will be the first live test update of building defenses and guided missiles.

@the_true_odst In This New Ocean, yes. The AI won’t however. It’s already out, just check the Update Log for the game to get the link.

@tyller_ I used the wrong operators, and I didn’t have the proper distance variable in the movement scripts.

@sirbots

Problem confirmed. It seems this is because this project is getting too big. It is over 145M when exported. You might need to consider using smaller clips or fewer sounds.

@tyller_ That’s actually a pretty good idea, it fits more with the nature of Scratch and CreatiCode rather than my idea

@the_true_odst We may do that. By the way, if you want a PFP, there’s a Scratcher named TechVantage who for a limited time is offering high-quality Canva made PFP’s and banners.

@tyller_ It doesnt use GPU acceleration like TensorFlow so it kinda sucks on that part as you have to make up methods to make it go faster and all that are kinda annoying.

For training data, it’s just a lot of sentences and all on random topics from wikipedia

@jeffreyrb03-gmail
I can check since I’m on phone lol

Scrolling does not work. Mobile doesn’t even get those arrows.

@jd131111

Indeed, that’s a good feature to add. Thank you

@tyller_
You know, 1st person CreatiCode VR games isn’t a bad idea… I might try to build an open-source version. Not in school, of course…

@the_true_odst C# is definitely more advanced than JS. You have to deal with the operating system and lower level stuff manually, where in JavaScript, you have many luxuries like garbage collection and whatnot that make it so you don’t have to worry about memory stuff. C# is also typed like Java more, not JavaScript (two different things).

@tyller_
Oh I was able to see those points. I didn’t even try to break it. It just did.

@the_true_odst Because if someone were to speed up the project using turbo mode it wouldn’t do anything, here’s an example project, the dog moves 5 per frame

https://play.creaticode.com/projects/67c9b516d2f890470312d57b

@jeffreyrb03-gmail Happy Biffy!

@the_true_odst

This issue has been fixed.

@sirbots I created 50 of something (let’s called it “thing1” bc the game I’m making is a secret), 25 of thing2, 12 of thing3, 6 of thing4, 3 of thing5, 1 of thing6, reshuffled the table a few times and pulled the first item out of that table. If that’s what you mean, would you make another table if you have a higher rarity with more rarer things added?

@tyller_

Please give it a try. I would love to hear your feedback. It is always a challenge to know when to give out the answer and when to hold it back, even for human teachers. Our current setting is to make the AI keep providing more hints when the user struggles. Hopefully, that will be good enough for most situations.

@jeffreyrb03-gmail yeah if you copy a block and edit its name to something invalid it’ll show that, pretty sure any block that actually renders means it does have a texture or something about it defined

@jeffreyrb03-gmail I realized that those blue boxes appear after playing tutorial, I will try to fix that

@tyller_ Ah, alright 🙂

@dreamsmp_luck

Are you referring to this forum? If so, only yourself can see them and no one else.

You can try to verify by looking at other user’s profile pages.

@jeffreyrb03-gmail ah alright

@info-creaticode It shows now. I think why it didn’t show before was because my internet may have been down (because it wouldn’t let me save, either)

@info-creaticode thanks for the idea! I will definitely do something like that for sure

@mod-squadacademy Here is the link for the game:
https://forum.creaticode.com/topic/1902/sneak-peak-of-a-game-omg-this-is-so-laggy

@c That’s normal, and intended. If you change the cursor to “crosshair” then it will stay crosshair until you change it again. So it’s your responsibility to change the cursor back to the default.

@info-creaticode True, I’m gonna make something that might help you guys out with that perhaps (not code)

@info-creaticode I have 2 solutions to that.

1: Have the find closest clone automatically log each clone’s x and y coordinates of the target sprite every time it’s run.

2: Add a block to calculate the positions of all clones of the target sprite.

@attractive-milk @The_True_Odst

Thanks for the feedback. It appears to be an issue related to computer speed and network latency between the 2 of you.

We will give it more tests and try to improve the performance.

@the_true_odst

In that case, you can skip that whole process when you debug the issue since it is unrelated to the issue, right?

@attractive-milk Also, Scratch comes with a Milk carton. (A sprite, not a real one.)

@jeffreyrb03-gmail yeah but with some touchscreen it allows for mouse and touchscreen, so maybe header blocks for when touchscreen started and when non touchscreen started? or just a booolean for if touchscreen is in use (whether last press was mouse or touchscreen) then manually detect changes and run scripts (toggling joysticks etc)

Sorry to hear that. Can you try to reload the page?

Is there a project link that we can look into?

@flores-yorkshireacademy

That’s a good question. We have just created a new tutorial for a game like this, which should be helpful to answer your question. If you need further help, it would be easier if you post a project link.

https://www.forum.creaticode.com/topic/1874/3d-physics-game-for-drone-dropping-a-box-difficulty-4

The demo project is shared here:

play.creaticode.com/projects/67d4719d24841fbbc47752ce

@mod-squadacademy I am referring to a “Japanese” teahouse. It’s essentially a building that Japanese people could live in, kinda like the homes you would see in some Japanese shows and WWII movies about Japan and the United States. I can’t go into very much detail here, as I know only a little bit myself.

@the_true_odst
He means project score.
3163e0f5-8348-4913-ad51-f25b96408007-image.png
and im clearly in last place on that list

@c thank you

@jd131111 idk look at sir metry yts projects

@sirbots

Please try again. The issue should be resolved now.

@the_true_odst Ah like app store apps where they have the carousel of app images? That’d be awesome

@the_true_odst

This block has been fixed.

@info-creaticode Ah ok

@info-creaticode I will later. It just would not play in World of Conquest, despite multiple tests done with no conditioning for the code to run (If else blocks, etc)

@info-creaticode It seems to be fixed, probably just my internet, but its odd how it was glitching and wouldnt let me do anything for 5+ hours.

@011830-0a42ef84 https://play.creaticode.com/projects/679b952fe83001fc08dae8bb

Hiya! Welcome to CreatiCode Forums. If you have any questions, feel free to ask!

@sirbots Good luck!

@c I’ll go fix that, I have the default message setup to notify some people of reports and must of messed it up in the project side

editing this cus I fixed it in like 4 minutes, it seems that the only way you could of gotten that is if it saw your user id as blank, for my alt I have a placeholder setup since I haven’t used it in a while so I haven’t gone to get its user id to set it. I left the place for the user id blank, so I just tested and if the user id is nothing it’ll detect your user id as being for my alt, I have made it so it has a dummy value, but it’s weird that it ever triggered since it would require your user id to be nothing.

Something else, I didnt realize you could make a world without a password and name, I thought I probably would of thought about that but I r have realized I didnt, I jsut made a world manually (via editing the sheets data) to have one

edit 2: I’ve also made it so it trims world names so you can’t make worlds with spaces/whitespace for names

@sirbots

That should be resolved now.

@jeffreyrb03-gmail Nice!! 😄
