Cozmo Extension
Hello!
I was lately programming with my Cozmo, and I wondered, maybe Scratch would consider adding this?
It would make sense, since it's another addition to the robot line of things Scratch can interact with.
All that would have to be done is translating Scratch code into Python code, then send that to Scratch Link, which would then be sent to a mobile device via the Cozmo SDK.
If this is not added, I can understand why.
Thanks!

Great idea but sadly its about having Text-based syntax for Scratch, which is rejected:
2.2 Text-based syntax in ScratchIf correct then please read The Official List of Suggestions before making a topic. Thanks!
Some users wish to code Scratch not with the blocks, but with typing code instead (similar to how more advanced programming languages work). Others are interested in an option to view, convert, or download Scratch code to other programming languages. However, the Scratch Team has discussed this possibility multiple times and has decided every time that it would not be beneficial for beginners or for teachers.
This suggestion extends to coding, viewing, converting, or downloading Scratch in any text-based language, including BBCode, Javascript, some form of pseudocode, or some other programming language. If you wish to code using another language, then you can learn it on your own, but it would have to be done outside of Scratch. For those who are interested, it may be worth checking out Tosh. It is a text-based programming language which serves as a text editor for Scratch projects.

Oh yeah, I forgot about those…-snip-This is completely different from that. This suggestion is to allow people to code on Cozmo Robots.
/hj is the worst tone indicator. It's confusing and ambiguous. I hate it. The point of tone indicators is to indicate tone, or the way that a piece of text should be read, but what does “half joking” mean? Do you just wake up in the morning and think “wow, I really have something I want to talk about seriously but also kinda not, IDK you decide.” It's useless. I hate it. It just provokes a deep rooted anger within me whenever I see it. People just comment /hj as if it makes any sense. It doesn't. Oh wow, it's a tone indicator that's has a relative meaning, how useful, I'll use it in every comment I post. NO. STOP IT. You're a tone indicator, you have only one job, and yet you sit there doing nothing apart angering me.
/srs
^^^ (there's more below)
This one is useful because it tells you that this signature is fully 100% serious. (/srs) Who would've thought that tone indicators needed to tell you something about the piece of text they're attached to? /s
I'm serious, I'm not even going to put multiple (/hj)s a the end of my signature as to mock the previous paragraph for not getting the point of something(like previous version of my signature). /srs

By that he means the Scratch Code for the robot would be translated into its native language (Python in this case) upon running the program so it works.

No support. Cozmo has it's own block code based on Scratch and ScratchJr.

I'm assuming he meant it would automatically translate it to python and then run it on the Cozmo, without, like, letting the user edit it.1. I said if I was correct.

No. You use the blocks as normal and when you run it the code is translated to python and sent to the robot.All that would have to be done is translating Scratch code into Python codeI feel like that falls under text-based syntax which is rejected

I hope that they still support the older models (I love my limited edition blue one)

Compiling to real code is indeed rejected, but I could see Scratch Team giving this idea specifically a pass on that. My only concern: Does this require the code to be compiled or do you think there's any way it could run in real time, or at least pretend to? If it is possible then I support, otherwise I do not support, because Scratch's workflow is not designed around compiling code.

I support. I really like Cozmo, and I think it would be fun to mix the Scratch sprites with the things on Cozmo's screen. One thing though: Would the Cubes be supported? Those are really important.
Oh, and I made some block concepts for the extension:
EDIT: I forgot a very important block:

From what I know, my Cozmo connects via WiFi, but I don't know what the revival models will connect by. Using that, we could just use Scratch Link to connect to the Cozmo.
