Controllers!

Hi! I was just gonna say that Scratch can have a gaming controller such as one for the Xbox of PlayStation! Just plug it in a USB port and it will work.

For the coding part, the thumbsticks might be like this (where ??? is the direction the stick is facing):

if <[([direction] of [left thumbstick v])] = [???]> then
set [clickingThumbStick? v] to [Yes]    
end

I thought it might be useful to have games where you use one stick to move, one stick to aim style of shooter.

Not really sure how it connects to the physical world though…

                                                                Cause a Vornado
if <any piece of code gets hurt> then
 Let the bugs get squashed getting it   
end
                                                                 end

You should try looking at the Makey Makey or the Picoboard. With those, you can make your own controllers!

Ok, I'll check it out! The Picoboard isn't being sold though.

Oh wow, that's new… I'm sure sparkfun will restock it soon, or at least have some news regarding the lack of Pico-ness (bloop!).

Cool idea!
when green flag clicked
say [Welcome to my Account!] for (infinite) secs

when green flag clicked
set [infinite] to ((1) / (0))
