How do I make different things move in a project?

Lil_Cutie_Bunny

So I see in different projects that people make different things like confetti and they make it look like it's moving it so I was just wondering what type of code would I put on there. Would it be something like this? Thanks!

turn cw (15) degrees
turn ccw (15) degrees

Check this project out. It may help you.

We ought to be careful with that octopus that takes over the servers. He's well armed.

Okay, now I don't really know what type of code that I am looking at. Does it just create a clone of itself? It's just confusing to me.

Yes, it creates a clone and makes it move upwards with costume, size, direction randomly chosen. All you have to do is spread it out a bit.

Hey there! So for something like confetti, you would most likely need clones. Go here, I made you a project. It is just a simple confetti engine. You can comment on there if you want it to do something in particular, I tried my best lol: https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/528873486/ (Sorry if that was not the type of help you wanted) I made it as simple as I could

One word: clones. Use a clone ID system like below: first create this variable: [scratchblocks]
(cloneid)

Then make sure that the clone id variable is for "this sprite only" then do this code:


[scratchblocks]
define create (number) clones of (type)
[/scratchblocks][scratchblocks]

set [ cloneid] to (type)
[/scratchblocks][scratchblocks]

repeat (number)

end
[/scratchblocks][scratchblocks]

create clone of [ myself]
[/scratchblocks]

Okay, so I finished the project!

hide
broadcast [When I leave]
