Some of the rejected blocks should be on here, like the cloud list workaround

The list of workarounds isn't used for rejected blocks. Try asking @Za-Chary about the cloud lists (if not already rejected).

They're talking about workarounds FOR rejected blocks. (Cloud lists are rejected)

Oh, nvm then. Still I recommend asking @Za-Chary about it before adding them to make sure they are not rejected.

Thanks a lot!!! I'll begin working on the new topic now. Sorry about the late reply, I was on vacation and forgot my laptop at home

You should also add the lists route for the “if broadcast received” workaround. It works like this:

when green flag clicked
repeat (however many broadcasts are needed)
add [0] to [broadcasts v]
end

...
replace item (whatever broadcast needed v) of [list v] with [1]


if <(letter (1) of (item ( v) of [list v] :: list)) = [1]> then
...
end

That code should be correct-ish. If not I made an older demonstration in my projects somewhere

why are you posting this here

I have a propose change to add to the title. If some scratchers go to the suggestions forum and they read the stickies, they might be confused to see “Scratch Workaround Guide VII” in the title and think of it as not only blocks, but for other problems they are having and posting here. Renaming this sticky to “Scratch Blocks Workaround Guide VII” will show scratchers that this topic isn’t the place to post other things but workarounds (unless it’s related to the topic).

This is a pretty good idea, but I haven't really noticed a problem with folk coming here and commenting either asking about or offering solutions for problems that aren't related to coding. I think “workaround” is a common enough term on the forums that people come to realize it's pretty much only about code quickly. But if it does start being an issue, then changing the title to “Scratch Blocks Workaround Guide” would probably be a good way to help clarify!

<pointing towards [sprite v]?::sensing>

Is a rejected suggestion, but it can be worked around quite easily:

set [dir v] to (direction)
point towards [sprite v]
if <(direction)=(dir)> then
set [answer v] to [true]
else
set [answer v] to [false]
end
point in direction (dir)

Is the simplest workaround.
Another workaround could be:

set [dir v] to (direction)
point towards [sprite v]
if <([abs v] of ((direction)-(dir)))<(range*)> then
set [answer v] to [true]
else
set [answer v] to [false]
end
point in direction (dir)

*range is how off from truly pointing towards the sprite you can get but still report true.

if on edge, bounce

? i wnated to do it with the edge but also do it with other sprites too. like,

Fair enough, I would have thought the same if I were you.

Haha, thanks for the update! I was suspecting, a little, but figured there was a pretty good chance you were still working on it just in the background.

Just let us know when it's ready with a link to the forum post. A lot of folk's schedules are kind of unpredictable during the summer – it's no worries your guide is taking a while.

Yeah, thanks for understanding. Truly sorry about the delay, and I'm trying my hardest to try and get this done.
