Hi! I have been doing a school project all about Scratch, and it got me thinking of ways it could be improved.
Although Scratch is a great learning platform, that is easy to access and fun to use, I do get slightly tired when working on games. One of these reasons is that I spend a lot of time doing the same code for numerous sprites. I think that it would be a lot easier if you could copy and paste code into different characters, backdrops and maybe even projects. A bit like how you can duplicate code within a sprite. Is this possible? Thank you

you see at the bottom where it says "backpack'? Click that and then drag your code into it until it turns blue. When you want to use your code, drag it out of the backpack.

You actually are able to do that. If you right-click the code, and press “copy”, you're able to transfer it to another sprite. You can transfer it to another project by clicking “backpack” at the bottom of your screen, and dragging the code you want there.

No support. Because you can already do that.

say [foo v] :: operators :: hat
delete clone of [myself v] :: custom
switch costume to <existing?:: motion> :: control 
when I start as a [clone v] :: sound :: cap

if you're doing it inside a single project, drag the bit of code into the other sprite or background. If it's on multiple projects, use the backpack.

Hi everyone! Thanks for answering, I don’t use a computer so I don’t know! I should have made it clearer, that was an idea for mobile. But if you do know how to do this pls let me know

another case of people forgetting that they use an extension

I tried this and It worked I was not sure how to do it until now!

To transfer code into another project click and drag it into your backpack at the bottom of the Code screen.

This is a duplicate
kinda a waste of a 120 second wait but whatever

Thanks for the link! It does look like this is a duplicate topic so I'll close it to keep the conversation all in one place. Please use the existing topic in the link above.
