text to speech glitch

account_name_empty

if you type in this code scratch will play an annoying sound

.

when green flag clicked
forever
broadcast [ message]
when I receive [ message]
say hello
end

the “say hello” block is a text to speech block.

when green flag clicked
forever
help people on forums
make projects
end

That's because, unlike the

start sound [ v] :: sound

block, the

speak [] :: extension

block doesn't terminate the speech sound once it's been made, so the speech sounds can overlap and cause loudness.

Yes because it has a queue for all the text that it needs to play. This continues after the stop sign.
