it runs the code as fast as it can, which can break projects

Can it break your computer? I've never tried it before

I'm pretty sure the worst it can do is make Scratch crash.

Turbo Mode makes the project go to 250 FPS. Most projects do not allow it due to how it sometimes breaks the scripts.

actually, it runs the project at around 4000 FPS. Most projects allow it, but don't support it.

250fps is highest on turbowarp and it feels more the same.

I've tested it before. My results were usually between 4000-5000 FPS.
in reality, turbo mode makes the project run without screen refreshes(or something similar). 250 fps can seem like turbomode but it definitely isn't.

Actually, both of you are wrong. the fps gained is dependent on the project. Turbo mode removes artificial delays that are present when scratch projects are run. These are usually put after motion blocks, control blocks, etc.. The amount of performance gained depends on how many of those delays are present in the project.

But wait blocks aren't affected. They aren't affected by lag either. Get stuck in a wall in my project, get infinite platforms.

turbo mode eliminates the short pause between blocks, meaning it causes the project to run as fast as your hardware allows.

because wait blocks are not the pauses scratch inserts into scripts.

meunspeakable wrote:

this is true, but additionally a faster computer will presumably run the project at a higher frame rate.

AFAIK you can only have 250 fps in turbo mode because otherwise scratch caps the fps at 30.

turbowarp allows you to run the project up to 250 fps. as said before, the fps that is there when turbo mode runs is dependant on the computer, but it is certainly a lot higher than 250.

the question is about scratch, though.

we're talking about how turbo mode is different than turbowarp

To be specific, Turbo Mode loops through the scripts in a project multiple times per frame (until the time allocated to script running is up) instead of only once per frame. It does not increase the FPS (the screen is still refreshed 30 times per second).

It runs the project faster and executes the code faster it runs at like 3x the speed

more particularity, it prevents the ‘lag’ of 1 frame between blocks
