@dezz-nuts

This program seems fine when I run it. What’s the issue you are having?

@dezz-nuts

Can you post the project link?

@dezz-nuts

The backpack is fixed now. Please try again.

@dezz-nuts

You should be able to achieve this with existing blocks.

@dezz-nuts

You should be able to achieve this with a few blocks of code. If you are not sure how to do it, try to ask XO.

@dezz-nuts

You should be able to find all information and get help on this forum.

Sounds like you are saying your editor is laggy. Are you using Chrome? Is your computer slow in general? Which project are you trying to load?

@dezz-nuts

Sorry can you explain more? Do you want the clones to do the same action or different actions?

@jasperleung-python-717f6cde

Can you please share the project link? We will check why there is an error. Thank you

@dezz-nuts

So you are saying you can’t see all the sprites at the bottom, right? Currently you can change the stage to minimized mode, or change the page zoom level.

If you don’t want to do that, how would you like to see all the sprites? The screen space is limited, so to show all sprites, we would have to minimize or hide some other elements.

@dezz-nuts

Thank you for these suggestions. It’s a great idea to have a better way to view/edit the variables/lists/tables. We’ll work on that, and also fix the diagram issue for you.

@dezz-nuts

Currently you can see all sprites in the sprite pane. Why do you need to go full screen? Can you explain with a screenshot?

@dezz-nuts

That makes sense. We’ll look into how to support that. For now, you can either save the project as different versions, or export them to your computers.

@dezz-nuts

Which aspect of that you like? We can’t change our overall layout since that’s what users are already familiar with, but we can add additional styling.

@dezz-nuts

This will be fixed soon. thank you

@dezz-nuts

This is not easy for block-based programs. What’s the main reason you need this feature for?

@dezz-nuts

Do you have the project link? We can’t reproduce this issue. When you set a variable to a new value, it should not be affected by switching sprites.

@alpha-tech-598cdd12

Not really. Scaling down still requires some amount of data. You need to use a simpler map, with less walls.

@alpha-tech-598cdd12

Great game. I can run it smoothly with no issue, so it might be just that your computer is running out of memory. I see you are using a large map, which can take a lot of memory to render.

One way to verify is to use a smaller map, and see if you still run into the same problem. If that’s confirmed, let’s discuss how to make the map more memory-efficient.

@alpha-tech-598cdd12

Have you seen this tutorial for a 3D maze game? https://www.forum.creaticode.com/topic/312/3d-a-maze-game-difficulty-3

It shows how to quickly draw a maze in the costume editor, then extrude it into a 3D maze made of walls.

Note that you can easily customize both the lite and dark modes in the Profile page now:

@ellisoncm-23627157

You can now use “\n” like this:

@regis

We made an update to our upload handler. Can you please try again? If it still doesn’t work, please send your model to info@creaticode.com for us to test it further.

Thank you

@jamesa-blackwell-57b383d3 said in More camera stuff:

@jamesa-blackwell-57b383d3 Can you also read my reply on the wishlist for new models?

We will consider the wishlist when adding new models.

@jamesa-blackwell-57b383d3

What kind of game are you thinking about? 2D platformer or a top down map game? We can make an example for you.

@jamesa-blackwell-57b383d3

It is always more helpful if you share a project link to reproduce the issue. Thank you

@regis

No problem at all! Please give it a try. If it still doesn’t work, let us know.

@regis

If your model already contains animations, you can upload it as a community model and then run the animations yourself with these blocks:

Can you please explain why this doesn’t work for you?

@ellisoncm-23627157

We will put in a fix so it works when you replace “&&” with “\n”.

@regis

What kind of model and animation are you referring to? We’ll see what we can do about it.

@ellisoncm-23627157

Which block are you using? Can you show your program or the project link?

@jamesa-blackwell-57b383d3

The canvas can’t be too big. It will be too slow. You can create multiple canvases and “stich” them together in your code.

@joshuakenny1411-0c86dd08

Can you try this example? It attaches the user’s avatar image as a costume, then uses that costume as the user icon in the chat:

Hi, the AI assistant for coding is called “XO”. See this post: https://www.forum.creaticode.com/topic/1093/creaticode-xo-ai-assistant-explain-to-me

Also, to create an AI player, you can use the AI blocks as the decision engine. Here is an example: https://www.forum.creaticode.com/topic/961/chatgpt-ai-who-s-the-spy-difficulty-3

@tao

The idea is to protect younger users. Here is some high level description:

https://www.forum.creaticode.com/topic/2448/13-projects

We agree plantz vs zombie games don’t have to be 13+

To make our site more accessible, we have added the dark mode. You can turn it on/off this way:

1. Click on the top right dropdown under your user name, and select “Profile”

2. In the profile page, scroll down to the settings section, and toggle the “Dark Mode” button:

 
Here is what it looks like:

@info-creaticode

The update has been complated. Thank you.

We are upgrading the site, it will be unavailable/non-stable for the next 30 minutes. Sorry.

@ellisoncm-23627157

We’ll look into that.

We have made some improvement in our game engine for 2D projects so that the frame rate will match that of MIT Scratch, rather than going too fast sometimes. Unfortunately, this means if you have intentionally added blocks to make the game loop slower, now your game would be too slow, so please remove such blocks. Thank you.

As a student of a class, you can easily share your projects in the class studio in the following steps.

Step 1 - Open the Class Page

After logging in, click the dropdown on the top right, and select “My Classes”:

Step 2 - Open the Studio Page

For the class you are currently enrolled, select the “studios” link under it:

 
In the list of studios, select the studio you would like to share your project in:

Step 3 - Add Your Project to the Studio

In the studio page, you will see your shared projects at the bottom under “Add My Shared Projects”, and you can click “Add +” on any of them to add to the studio:

The CreatiCode platform serves two groups of users:

• Young users (elementary school students) — similar to those on MIT Scratch, who enjoy fun, creative, and age-friendly projects designed to inspire imagination and introduce coding fundamentals.

• Older users (middle and high school students) — who are more mature and can handle projects with complex storytelling, deeper emotional or philosophical themes, and mild suspense or darker tones, such as “Plants vs. Zombies”, “Tank war”, etc. These projects encourage critical thinking, creativity, and exploration of real-world ideas in a safe and respectful way.

To ensure that older users can freely share their creative work while keeping younger users protected, we’ve introduced a new feature in the Playground. When sharing or publishing a project, you can now mark it as “Meant for users 13 or older.”

 
If this box is checked, anyone who opens the project will first see a notice asking them to confirm that they understand the project is intended for older users:

When sharing a new project, please consider checking this box if your project might not be suitable for young users. If you see a project that should be marked as 13+ but it is not, please remind the author to do so in the comments, or report the project directly.

Please note that all shared projects must still be appropriate for school use, including those marked as 13+. Our administrators reserve the right to reclassify projects as 13+ or remove them if necessary. Users who share or publish inappropriate content risk permanent deletion of their accounts and projects without prior notice.

@ellisoncm-23627157

There was some issues. They are fixed now. Can you please refresh the webpage and try again?

The release is complete now.

We are making a new release and we have to bring down the server for a while.

@s-svoboda277-55c053ab

The database blocks only work when you have signed in. We’ll look into enhancing it to work withou logging in.

@wollowtaff

We are still improving these 5 new languages. Will add more after they prove to be complete and correct.

@tao

Geo info is a useful tool used by many apps, such as Google Maps or Uber. So getting the user’s location info itself is not a malicious behavior.

@tao

You can “publish” a project instead of sharing it.

Please do a hard reload to get the latest web page, and you will see 5 new languages. Please help us point out any translation issues. Thank you.

@sirbots

We added some new features to the editor, but they might have introduced some issues. Please reload to get the latest code, and if you still have trouble, please describe the issues. We will get them fixed quickly. thank you
