Hi all!
I'm having a problem using the "Advanced Platformer Physics“ tutorial. I've followed it exactly but it isn't working. Basically, the problem is, coding allows the player to fly. When I added the next step to the ”check ground touch" block, which now ignores the ground itself. I'll link to the project I'm using to see if I've made any mistakes, although I think this might be a mistake in the wiki. This is kind of like a question if I haven't followed the instructions correctly, or a suggestion to fix it if it is bugged.

If they can't remove the Bureaucrat group from the user, can we do it using JavaScript?

• We only grant bureaucrat rights to a very small number of highly trusted users, so vandalism or abuse is highly unlikely
  
• If a bureaucrat were abusing their rights and were blocked, we would also revoke their bureaucrat rights to prevent them from unblocking themself
  
• If as part of their abuse they also revoked the bureaucrat rights of all other bureaucrats, someone with backend access could restore them
  
• If all else fails, we have frequent database backups which we could use to revert everything

The method I used for text rendering was very similar to the way it was shown in the Text Rendering article, under the part ‘With Case Sensitivity’. However, I did have to change one thing. Sometimes, it didn't work correctly if I didn't add a ‘Switch costume to “null”’ at the beginning of the script. I believe the Wiki article should include this as the final script instead of the other one:

define rendertext (text) at x: (x pos) y: (y pos)
switch costume to [null]
go to x: (x pos) y: (y pos)
set [ letter] to [1]
repeat (length of (text))
switch costume to (letter (letter) of (text))
if <(costume #) = [1]> then
switch costume to (join (letter (letter) of (text)) [t])
end
if <(costume #) = [1]> then 
else
stamp
end
change x by (10)
change [letter] by (1)
end

The Wiki article also had a mistake within the first ‘If <> then’ block. The code in the article was

switch costume to (join (character) [t])

even though the variable ‘character’ was never used or established. This is merely an error that can be fixed by using

(join (letter (letter) of (text)) [t])

instead. ^input from the custom block

The code in the Scratch Wiki for “How to Evaluate an Expression” has an error repeated 4 times near the bottom of the supplied script:

It should say:

if <(token) = [*]> then
insert ((item (2) of [stack v] :: list) + (item (1) of [stack v] :: list)) at (1) of [stack v]
end

This error is repeated for +,-,* and /

You are allowed to make April Fools' versions of templates if that's what you're asking, but they should only be used on April Fools' pages. Due to issues in the past we don't replace the templates for all usages.

what if i just want to create a template just for an april fools day page and not an afd version of a template? would i be allowed to do that?

You cannot create entirely new templates for April Fools' pages. All April Fools' pages (and by extension, templates) must have a corresponding real page.

Hi, CabanTv2021 here! I'm having trouble with adding a smooth jumping animation. I decided to go with this:

when [space v] key pressed
change y by (5)
wait (1) secs
change y by (-5)
switch costume to [idle v]

[small][/small] it does not look smooth[/quote]

use wait 0.5 secs might work
