Hey, I am an experienced Scratcher and have made this account to test out something that looks interesting to me: Creating a project with only one sprite.
This means that clones are on order, and I wanted to know some more about the processing power of clones. Is Scratch multithreaded? As in, does it compute all the clones at (around, non-deterministicly) the same time? In smaller projects it seems it does to an extent, but is this designed into Scratch?
I haven't used scratch since Scratch 2 (Is this Scratch 3? I am pretty sure) and was wondering if it was the same as before where it was computed at around the same time.
If you have any other suggestions about making a project with only one sprite (and no background code!) please tell me!

clones don't have much additional power to just good coding.

I know that there just a limit of clones - 300

I think the clones are executed one by one until their scripts yield, and it's probably in a deterministic order based on when the clones were created

I don't think Scratch uses workers for anything but sandboxing unofficial extensions, so everything is single threaded

Single threaded but async so it feels multithreaded

Wait what so when I crashed my computer many, many times it was Scratch 2? Time flies!
