ocular - scratch forum info

LukasDoesCode

Now that the forums have 3.0 blocks, what are you planning to do with ocular's forum viewer? will you give users the option to toggle between 2 and 3 or just switch to 3 like the official site?

Yeeeah, and all the blocks there look kind of weird. Type “end”

Heh, it's been quite a while since scratchblocks added that. Where's blob?

That's a side effect of C blocks using “end”.

i think there’s some confusion here - scratchdb (the scraper and indexer ocular relies on) went through a power outage and data loss a little while back. but the creator, lefty, hacked together a new version purely for the forums. ocular has worked since then using that. but it sometimes goes down and ocular goes down with it
