I am trying to make a multiplayer, i;'ve tryed for years now but it is not working? please help! Could you explain how to or give pictures or anything? I even tryed grtiddpatch's tutoprials and tryed using his code in projects (with credit of course) but it never worked so i've deleted all of those! please help!

Idk but you could always go to griffpatch's “Massive Multiplayer Platformer” for script. heres the link https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/612229554/
and there's also a tutorial in the description

Yes! So basically, Cloud Variables have limits.

But you should be fine like this:

when green flag clicked
forever
wait (0.2) secs
(find a cloud translator)
encode (username)
set [☁️ username v] to [coded value]
set [☁️ x v] to (x position)
set [☁️ y v] to (y position)
end

when green flag clicked
forever
now you want to set any clone with this user-id (☁ username) to the x and y for more contact me on my profile
end

You can use code from others, specifically using the “Storage” Attribute of scratch. (In your editor on the bottom) Drag & Drop Code from others into there and it will automatically be saved and can be used in a different project.
If you want to copy the whole Project, consider remixing or downloading & reuploading.

hiiii, taking code usinmg backpack does not work. (it transports but the cloud doesnt work)

I'd say it's likely because you're the only person (or account) playing the project. If you have an alt account that isn't of New Scratcher rank, you can try using the project with it tonight to for play testing purposes.

Hello, so transporting seems to work by me, maybe try refreshing the page? Otherwide it might be an OS / Scratch Problem. Are you using Scratch Desktop?

I have no idea, honestly. It would be a LOT easier if cloud variables could store letters because then it would look like this:

when green flag clicked
set [CloudVariable v] to (username)
if <not <(CloudVariable) = (username)>> then
say (CloudVariable v) for (2) secs
end

Because then the sprite says the other player's username.
