I want to make an anti-piracy screen on my game and I figured to use the projects url number to find what the project number is and if it is not matching with the original url number then it will show anti-piracy. But idk how to read the project url. If you know how to do that with scratch code please show me how.

The way I would do this is not to do it. If you really don't want anyone “stealing” you game I would recommend that if you have costumes in bit map put your username on top of them so as a water mark (if they are vector first convert them to bitmap). Look up “image watermark”

But I don’t want anyone to see a watermark

you would not see the watermark if you used a different costume that shows.

All I’m asking for is how to get your project to read it’s URL

In Vanilla Scratch you can't get the url.

How do you get a project to read its url in scratch
Also what is vanilla scratch

Vanilla anything can also mean that no modifications are made, kinda like the vanilla flavor.
Also, you can’t. And you cannot prevent people from remixing your project.

What about mods and hacked blocks

Then that would be considered a modification of Scratch, and not Vanilla Scratch (ex. TurboWarp, Scrap, or Code X)
Edit: Hacked blocks would be in vanilla scratch, but they would also be in modifications if they weren't removed.

So what mod will let a project read its project number

Well, it likely won't work in Scratch 3.0 then, as it would likely involve newly added blocks.
However, I haven't heard of one for 3.0.

There are ways to create a scratch project that reads its URL using mods.
https://turbowarp.org/editor if you go to turbowarp, and copy https://extensions.turbowarp.org/true-fantom/network.js and upload it to turbowarp, there is an option to “detect URL”. This will not be uploadable to scratch.

So is there a way for 2.0? If so show me the modded code or the scratch code

Is there a way to do it with hacked blocks?
