BIG SPRITES AND BACKDROPS STOP SHOWING PAST A CERTAIN SIZE
My browser / operating system: IPad iOS 17.1, ChromeiOS
If you take a sprite, and make it huge with the corner drag size thingy, eventually in the project player it will stop showing. Help? Thanks!

As you can see in this photo, I’ve made a black scribble, then centered it. I made it humongous, many many times further than the costume border.

No, in fact no blocks inside at all, I’ve made like 4 projects to test and they all stop after a certain size. Is ghost effect 100?

Does switching to bitmap work? Duplicate the costume then switch to bitmap and see if it shows.No, in fact no blocks inside at all, I’ve made like 4 projects to test and they all stop after a certain size. Is ghost effect 100?

I will try that, but I’d rather not use bitmap. I’m trying to make a huge map for a game and if I scale it up to the size I want it to be the pixels on bitmap will definitely show and make it look blurry.Does switching to bitmap work?

Edit: Bitmap cuts off everything past the border of the costume editor, so it won’t work if I size it past the border.

-snip-Oh right I forgot it does that too.
Edit: Bitmap cuts off everything past the border of the costume editor, which is not going to work with my map.
What about making it smaller? I know that might not be what you want but it's just a test.

I have noticed that issue in the past; you just need to make it smaller. If you need it to be larger you can use the custom block workaround.
Set size: () %
define Set size: (s) %
set [Previous cost v] to [current costume]]
switch costume to [Costume 1 v]
set size to (s) %
switch costume to (Previous cost)

Unfortunately this does not break the size limit. I have noticed that issue in the past; you just need to make it smaller. If you need it to be larger you can use the custom block workaround.Set size: () %define Set size: (s) %
set [Previous cost v] to [current costume]]
switch costume to [Costume 1 v]
set size to (s) %
switch costume to (Previous cost)

I think it’s so big that scratch just gives up when trying to rasterize it
