New Block (what do you think about it?)

super_crazy

New block –> Go to Scratch project _ _ _ _ _ _ !!! (please read it all first)
———————————————————————–
Me (and many other scratchers) believe a “Go to Scratch.mit (projects) / (00000)” should be added to scratch. This would be usefull and great because then you could show of your projects inside your project. I have thought of the problems with this already and i think with a block like this it would work.

Go to scratch.mit/[place Eg. project, studio etc... v]/(0000) :: control cap

by having this block, You could add buttons in your project to make them go to another one of your projects (for advertisment)…

when this sprite clicked
Go to scratch.mit/[project v]/(19660567) :: control cap

or make your game automatically go to the sequel of your game.

when green flag clicked
script :: grey
if <(score) = [100]> then
    say [you win!!!] for (2) secs
    ask [do you want to play the sequel? (y/n)] and wait
    if <(answer) = [y]> then
    Go to scratch.mit/[project v]/(843673) :: control cap // This would be game 2
end

end

If you made the block only go to the Scratch web and make scratch warn you before going to the project (like this) it would be quite safe!!!
Please comment what you think about it!

This is another suggestion block for this idea:

go to project [name of project v] :: control cap

Indifferent.

little_kitten

Well, connection between projects! Good idea. Support.

theonlygusti

I like the idea, of being able to connect between projects, but I propose a slightly different way of doing it:

Instead of having a block, a Scratcher should be able to add a “recommendation” to their projects. Then, once the project has stopped, the user gets a pop-up alerting them of this recommendation:

@username recommends that you play Project Name and Link next!
Image Of Project Thumbnail

Okay! No Thanks.

☐disable this pop-up in future

There will also be a link to the project underneath the notes and credits section, saying “Recommended next:” or something similar, so that even when the pop-up is disabled users can still follow along.

That won't work because there's multiple projects with every name.

Aside from that, it couldn't have a dropdown, because that would be over 6,500,00 choices to pick from.

However, it could look like this:

open project (000) :: control

or even:

open project (000) in [edit mode v] :: control
open project (000) in [play mode v] :: control
open project (000) in [full screen mode v] :: control

Where 000 is where the project id goes, and it could have options for which mode to open in.

I thought mabye you could only open your own projects. I like the open in edit, fullscreen or play mode though!

Support, but what about taking it a step further?

go to scratch.mit.edu/[url here] :: control stack

super_crazy

Thanks for the support everyone

A way to do this, put the link in a list and ask the user to copy it.

add [http://scratch.mit.edu/] to [go here  v]
show list [go here v]
say [copy the link and paste it in your browser]

a block that sends you to a different project
new block (that can make you go to websites)
go to website

True but this makes it easier

stumble

This is a good idea, and i think they should make that block, but what if you have shared 200 projects, it will take ages to find the project you need.
great idea

Hmmm… It's useful. I support this block as long as it gives a warning….

But…

forever
    go to project [Inappropriate project v] :: control
end

Ehhh….

I'm indifferent.

Why go to the trouble of redirecting the user to a separate project when you could just make your project inappropriate? Redirecting to another inappropriate project would just get both projects reported.

Cyoce

Given the nature of redirecting to another project, it should probably be

go to project [project v] :: control cap
// or
go to scratch.mit.edu/[url] :: control cap // my *cough* better *cough* block
// instead of
go to project [project v] :: control stack
// or
go to scratch.mit.edu/[url] :: control stack // my *cough* better *cough* block

True but you could still do this:

forever
    
broadcast [go to project v]
end
when I receive [go to project v]
go to project [project v] :: control cap

So instead you make the project stop when you go to a different project

go to project [project v] and stop :: control cap
