New block, about colours!

Could the Scratch team possibly make a sensing block that reports what colour the sprite is touching? Everyone says its a great idea and when you do make it, Scratch will be a lot better.

This is a great idea.

I support!

I do not support this, but rather this block:

color at x: () y: () :: sensing
// To check what color the sprite is touching, all you now have to do is this:
color at x: (x position :: motion) y: (y position :: motion) :: sensing

[scratchblocks]
color at x: () y: () :: sensing
// To check what color the sprite is touching, all you now have to do is this:
color at x: (x position :: motion) y: (y position :: motion) :: sensing
[/scratchblocks]

But this block isn't there!!

I know, I'm suggesting that they add it!

Support! Here's some scratchblocks for it too:

<colour this sprite is touching :: sensing>

[scratchblocks]
<colour this sprite is touching :: sensing>
[/scratchblocks]

Please stick to the topic.

Me too… Support this!

What type of values would it report?

It would report the colour as a 24 bit RGB value.

^ This. It should be a reporter though.

(color at x: () y: () :: sensing)

Support.

Yeah. I just mean I want this block:

<touching colour :: sensing

Or this:

<colour at x:() y:() :: sensing

But I just want them to report a 24-bit RGB value. PLEEAASE!!!!!

TheHockeyist

There's this in Scratch already…

<touching color [#ff0000] ?>

So you want to detect the color it's touching? Indifferent. What if the sprite is large and touches many colors?

Well, I want it to REPORT a VALUE as an Rgb colour. The

<touching color [#ff0000] ?>

block only detects 1 colour.

And it would report the colour number the center of the sprite is touching.

What if the center touches multiple pixels, e.g. a 2x2 sprite?
