Cloud Lists! REALLY WORKS!

Hello everyone!

Recently, I was wondering why there was cloud variables but not cloud lists. After playing a bit with the cloud data, I realized that I could create custom blocks that would read some data from a cloud variable and print it in a local list, effectively simulating a “cloud list”. I decided to challenge myself at building such a device.
I started by designing my own protocol for transferring a data structure like a list, in a variable. I called it the “Scratchlist Protocol”, and you can see how it works by pressing space while my project runs. After that, it was only a matter of parsing and voilà, cloud lists for anything you want. All-time scores, accounts for your Scratch OS, anything.

By design, cloud variables can't handle letters yet, but it is possible to bypass this limitation using associative tables. I may do an update that will allow the users to input not only numbers but also letters.

TL;DR: I made a project that simulate cloud lists for anything you want. You can't input letters in yet, but soon, friends. Check it out!

Your safe chat is cool, but it doesn't do the same thing at all!
