when green flag clicked
forever
if <(scratching) = [0]> then
set [(scratching)] to [1]
end

I think this may be intentional. Python does the same thing (unless they are both broken).

Test how good your computer is at doing math. 3DS and Wii U online after shutdown.

Is there a way to fix it?

Blame floating point math(pretty sure that's the cause). Here's the fix though:

when gf clicked
delete all of [e v] :: list
set [e v] to (0.1)
repeat (...)
add (e :: variables) to [e v]
replace item (length of [e v]) of [e v]with (([floor v] of ((e::variables)*(10)))/(10)
change [e v] by (0.1)

Doesnt work, it goes 0.1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0,

Uhhhh can you share the project then? It works perfectly fine for me.
EDIT: Make sure you put the variable in the replace blocks instead of the list block.

Scratch uses floating point math, so if there is a glitch with decimal numbers, you can't do anything about it, but to use more complex math as @Thingied said.
