There's cloud variables, but it would make it easier if there were cloud lists for storage keeping

Wow. That's a great idea!

How about it, Scratch Team, can we have cloud lists?!

Obviously sarcasm. He was here when cloud lists were working.

But yes, if you had read the 9000+ other topics about cloud lists and better cloud variables, you might find out something?

So Scratch Team, please! A lot of us really want cloud lists!!!11!!one!1!!! : DDDDDDDDD

I concur - I want them too.

However, I also have a reasonable amount of experience running a server, and know that setting up anything more complicated than numbers can get weird. While strings aren't that hard (and I don't see why they couldn't have enabled those too, unless there's something I don't know about Mongo), storing a data type that doesn't exist natively on the server is harder. A Mongo server (to my knowledge) can only store strings and numbers. Because of this, the Scratch Team needs to program their own way to store lists over multiple rows, and a system to manage them. This can take a while, as it is a fairly complicated task.

They were able to program their own system, it just did not work properly. They are now working on making one that does, and they have to extensively error check it, which takes a while.

And get your chatroom taken down. Yes, the ST has noticed. Since before the ALPHA period, if I have my facts straight…

Thanks for the ride, Scratch Team and community! Unfortunately, the time has come for me to move on from Scratch, so I'll no longer be using the forums. Thanks again, and farewell!

There are a lot of topics explaining why not. Just search. I'm too tired of explaining.
