could anyone tell me how to make typical drift into cars in scratch? i mean: i'm moving to the north and turned to the west but the car is still moving to the north slower and slower…. there's my script without drift:

forever
move (speed) steps
end

forever
if <key [W or up arrow v] pressed?> then
if <(speed) < [10]> then
change [speed v] by (1)
end
else
if <key [s or down arrow v] pressed?> then 
change [speed v] by (-1)
else
if <<(speed) < [0.1]> and <(speed) > [-0.1]>> then 
set [speed v] to [0]
else
if <(speed) < [0]> then 
change [speed v] by (0.1)
else
change [speed v] by (-0.1)
end
end
end
end
if <key [left v] pressed?> then
turn ccw ((speed) * (0)) degrees
end
if <key [right v] pressed?> then
turn cw ((speed) * (0)) degrees
end
end

define fun
say [thats scratch]
play sound [meow v]

I made some changes to your script, in order to simplify the code. Let me know if this works alright:

forever
if <<key [w v] pressed?> or <key [up arrow v] pressed?>> then 
change [speed v] by (1) 
end
if <<key [s v] pressed?> or <key [down arrow v] pressed?>> then 
change [speed v] by (-1)
end
set [speed v] to ((speed) * (0.9)) 
if <key [left arrow v] pressed?> then
turn ccw ((speed) * (0.6)) degrees 
end
if <key [right arrow v] pressed?> then
turn cw ((speed) * (0.6)) degrees
end
move (speed) steps
end

Also be sure to set the direction of your sprite to all around, to see the car turning.

set rotation style [all around v]

You mean this?

change [speed v] by (1) 
end
if <<key [s v] pressed?> or <key [down arrow v] pressed?>> then

turn cw ((speed) * (0.6)) degrees
end
move (speed) steps
end

I guess that makes the script more clear, so I added the changes, thanks

okay okay…. i knew that im in scratch since…. 2 years i made these scripts up that bad because i rarely use forum and thats so difficult to make same scripts in forum as in editor… BUT i didn't asked for improving these scripts (well i asked for that but not in that way) I asked for DRIFT SCRIPTS, okay? by the way dont pay attention to these uppercase letters :I





let's go to start:
im asking for help with drift scripts, that mean: i'm moving to the north and turned to the west but the car is still moving to the north slower and slower… added: and moving faster and faster to the west .and sorry if i offend you i didnt mean to do that im still learning english.
and thats script:

forever
move (speed) steps
end

must be alone because of “wait” block put inside original one… WELL I HATE DOING SCRIPTS IN FORUMS >

define fun
say [thats scratch]
play sound [meow v]

Oh Ok (RUDE)
(WUT WAIT BLOCK)
I made A Script Based On Yours
Im Still Working On It But You Can Improve It.
