Hello all Scratchers. I really need help. I want to know how to save what other people type in your list. I went on to another account and typed in answers to test, and when I went back to my own account and looked at my list it was empty. I'd be really, really grateful to anyone who could help me solve this problem.

You'll have to simulate a cloud list using cloud variables, which you can do by encoding words and letters as numbers and storing them in a cloud variable. When the project is opened, the cloud variable is decoded back into words and letters and shown as a list. Here is a good example of what a cloud list should look like.

you can encode. encoding the usernames and their saves in cloud variables and blocks. then make them go in a list. there are tons of encoding engines that will allow you to use them with credit

That's should be easy. On scratch you should good engine. If you want make it yourself, you
need system coding letters and decode. How said @MasterofTheBrick find a good engine.

It's against the rules to make a cloud list that shows what people type into the list.

Unless you mean a list that basically functions like a cloud chat.

Yeah, Scratch does not allow engines that allow open cloud chats unless there are only certain dialogue. While this engine might not be intended to use as a cloud chat, if it can be used in that way it's against Scratch's cloudVariable rules.

It's fine if the list is not shown to anyone using the project, but rather for the creator of the project to see what others had typed, whether it is for feedback purposes or for plain interest.

So I've made an encoding engine but it still doesn't seem to work. Maybe some of you could check it out at https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/553434662 please?
