cloud variables don't work
@DadOfMrLog:
It still doesn't work!… I recreated a project Untitled. But it seems that only when I set the cloud variable it writes a record in the log..

cloud variables don't work
I have a weird project where the clod var. works sometimes, but even when it does and doesn't roll back, no data is added to the log.

cloud variables don't work
@alex0091845:Thank you. It was because I uploaded it from my computer. When I purged all mention of the cloud variable, and replaced it with a new one, it fixed.
Did you upload it at some point from a file on disk? This also (used to?) cause cloud vars to stop working.
Anyway, whatever it may be, I'd suggest you delete the cloud var and create a new one (probably best to go for a different name just to be sure) - and make sure you've purged all mention of the old one from your scripts, replacing with the new one.
BTW, I noticed one thing in your scratch cat sprite (Sprite1): you have “when P key pressed”. But there are several clones of that sprite, so they will all respond to this and try to run the pause script. It may happen to work right now, but some simple change later on could cause this to break…
If you want to keep that script in the same sprite, then you'll have to make sure you can tell apart the clones from the original sprite. (e.g. by using a local variable that's set to zero “when GF clicked”, but set to one “when I start as a clone”. Then you can have just the original doing the pausing by checking if that variable is zero.)
A simpler way would be to move the “when P key pressed” script to another sprite that doesn't have clones (“pause” is a global var, so it should be fine, right?) - probably “Sprite4” would make sense
EDIT: Maybe you're aware of this already, but just in case (since it's similar to above)… all clones also respond to broadcasts. At the moment you're ok since there are no other clones around when you broadcast “message1” - but it's so easy to fall into that trap (forgetting to stop your clones acting on a broadcast if you only want the original sprite to act upon it) - done it myself, even recently

cloud variables don't work
Hi Scratch team.
Cloud variables aren't working on my latest project. http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/16258746/ Please take a look at the first sprite and it's routines. It appears to work in the editor but not on the stand alone page.

Any help would be appreciated, ta

I think I have been having the same problem as well. I cant seem to make cloud variables and projects I do use that have cloud variables don't seem to save my data.
