If the HTML5 web storage api was used, it could save data that is not viewable unless you use the console, therefore eliminating this problem.

So you can't look at the data, but the computer can. That would be useful for saving names of items and usernames. Other players wouldn't be able to access your data, right?


This is my pet, Siggy! He creates kumquats for me and destroys anti-kumquat signatures! You can make a Siggy too!

nope.

i'd say one more thing:

Instead of going to your computer, maybe it could store it onto my stuff, like projects. it would be even lighter on the server than creating a project, and you could even access it. Example:

First i play a game, blah blah blah, i love and fave, and i exit. the block saves my colossal profits i made in the tycoon. Now, i go to my stuff and there is a section called ‘Stored Variables’. I click on the section and i can see the variable's value. i can't edit it, just see it, and if i want, delete it. Then, i revisit the game, and a block checks for stored variables, uploads my colossal profits, and i play on.

I support this suggestion. It seems useful in many ways and I am sure that many people will use it especially when they have big projects

eh, that is ok, but how about this: you go onto a tycoon game, do your stuff, have the save block run, and exit. you can't see it, but a file was created on your computer(or cloud storage, I guess). later, you go to the sequel of that same tycoon game, and it reads that file and takes the data, rebooting your data, even though it isn't the original game.

Lots of games on Scratch are long, like idle or RPGs. A block that saves the game and loads it would be very useful. Maybe it could automatically export a code that can be loaded, so that we can still export games with websites.
Sure! I would like those!

This is my signature. I love cats a much very much!

CTRL+SHIFT+DOWN ARROW to see more of my siggy!

This is Weirdy. He protects my signature from villians.

I hate 60 secs cooldown

Mech Arena lover!

Video game lover… maybe
