I Shattered Scratch's Cloud Player Limit 💥 Here's how I did it!

I love to push the limits of Scratch Coding and today I show how I was able to build a 60 to 100 player Minecraft style MMO (Massive Multiplayer Online) game in Scratch 3 using super clever cloud variable tricks!
With the huge success of Paper Minecraft, there was been a huge desire in the Scratch Community for me to make the game online, and this game is one step towards that dream.

For your lighting problem, maybe you can calculate it individually for each player in the area around the screen? For example, whenever a torch is loaded x distance away from the screen, it's effect is calculated.

[@charlessantos2797]

I visited the project but yes he did fix the lightning problem

[@zellenny1784]

Perhaps torches and suhc can have a white circle around them by standard, but with a multiplication effect applied to them, to give the illusion they're lighting up the surroundings, while they're actually just compensating for the black. Is this even possible in scratch?

[@griffpatch]

@@zellenny1784 no, there no composition display filters like multiply, that would be awesome

Really interesting delta encoding. Almost a mini version of git. 😂 I think a cool idea could be a build battle game. Where players are given a prompt and try and build the closest things with the limitations. Would need a voting system though but that could just be another key in the players object. Could be a way to introduce competitiveness in a way that’s technically possible

[@griffpatch]

That is an interesting idea :D - If only cloud wasn't so unreliable! (regarding git, yeah! It is a mine change control system, but where everyone is broadcasting / streaming their changes in a loop continually :) fun

[@ThePlough]

You could possible use the days since 1/1/2000 if you multiply this number by 60*4 (1 = 15 minutes) and leave the fractional part, then there will be a segment of numbers [0; 1) which should ideally be synchronized for different time zones, then 0-night, 0.25 - morning, 0.5 - day, 0.75 - evening. I hopw this helps for day and night sequences!

[@Benjitos2]

Maybe you can have a system where players can award each other points or items to encourage cooperation. This could be how the mob masks you suggested would be gained.

[@IceGame644]

Also, you could add a negative point system(so its more of a rep system) that removes players with a low reputation, that would mostly fix the griefing problem too and encourage being nice to each other😊

[@ryanmapping7944]

NO MOBS? NO PVP? this is how you get a boring game...

[@thegreenhoodieguy]

I remember playing this and saw you, I tried following you but then you left. This has got to be the most insane cloud project ever.

[@-_lIl_-]

the way you have created this is really clever, I would have never been able to think of something like this!

[@colinmacc]

It's really remarkable how you've created this even with all the limitations in the cloud variables. Great video - a real eye-opener! I vaguely knew the theory of MMO, but have never tried to put one into practice. I might now :)

[@cringeSpeedrunner]

Ideas: You don’t have to do any of them, obviously :D: 1. More Animal Masks - In the beginning, the Pig Masks were a hit! I think it would add more variety to add different ones :) 2. Community Regions - These regions are unclaimable, such as the gold mine and the well. 3. A way to extend your land - Maybe players could pay, iron / gold / diamonds to expand their land 4. Trading - Maybe you could add a new type of chatting such as (TENDERGALAXY) 10 WOOD -> 4 IRON, and then I could enter to accept the offer and the game would auto trade Of course, these are just my personal opinion and you don’t have to do them :D

[@gegybeans]

Wow, this is absolutely incredible, and such a great video! 💖 Couldn’t overstate how much you inspired me when learning Scratch & getting into programming. Such impressive work, as always! 😊 Having just worked on replacing the light propagation algorithm in Minecraft: Java Edition, that struggle sounds very familiar! 😄

[@ModBros8434]

Finally, the secret has been revealed! This is a very impressive technical feat. It's so cool to see how far we've come since the character limit was employed. In the future, I think it would do a lot of people good if you took a bit of time to leave some helpful comments in your code. I think it would benefit the Scratch community greatly.

[@FunnyAnimatorJimTV]

In Cloud Splatoon i (sort of) found a solution to the problem of new players joining after someone leaves. And it's kind of like what you've said about cloud map storing in the past. I made it so all cloud players are also storing their "static" tiles in the cloud, that is, all the tiles on their map currently. They store about 50 tiles per frame, cycling through the whole map, and these tiles will be immediately read by the New joining player to fill in the map that all other players see. The more players are online, the faster it loads in for new players. 50,000 would take way too long, but since your starting world is already preset, maybe you could only have them send the static tiles that are different from the preset world. Also, since splatoon has only 3 color possibilities for tiles, I was able to store 2 tile values in only 1 digit (using the numbers 1-9 since 3^2 = 9), so maybe you could do this combination system to save data in minecraft as well.

[@NaraSherko]

Wow I never thought I see you there

[@Oxey405]

Very impressive! I started my dev journey on Scratch (age 6) and multiplayer always seemed impossible to me because of the restrictions but I am glad to hear that some people managed to make this dream come true. I recall thinking of such a system (encoding data into a number) but never made because to me it seemed too complex. I am glad someone finally realized my dream ! Also I didn't know you could have multiple cloud variables.

Just wondering, what are your thoughts about people using code to change Scratch cloud variables outside of scratch? Also, do you have any plans to stop any “hackers” from doing these such as writing text in bedrock, drawing things, etc.?

[@griffpatch]

My thoughts are that I wish the scratch team would lock things down to prevent cloud hacking. The benefits of external cloud modification are not enough to outweigh the detrimental effects in my opinion

[@medieval_fort_chat]

[@thecreator3758]

For saving the whole level, you could just run scratchattach on a server and store the level in a file. This level could then be sent to new players in reserved variables. I actually did this once and it works surprisingly well.

[@DiamondLabs3]

I’m working on the same thing also using severs for security and to increase the max player limit

[@yoshihome2682]

This is very cool! How you just push the limits of scratch! Good job =)

[@stefanandrejevic2570]

My solution to the griefing would be to give everyone one sign block that when placed, only you can build within a certain radius of the sign. Not sure what the radius would be though...

[@WindowsDrawer]

I think in scratcharia he did that. Correct me if i'm wrong

[@stevenpochatko945]

That could also be used to grief though. Someone could log on with a lol of accounts and fill huge areas with signs so no one could build. Even if there aren’t grinders, the entire surface would be completely filled up all the time.

[@stefanandrejevic2570]

@@stevenpochatko945 the moment you leave all of your builds including the sign get removed, so you'd have to keep all those accounts online at the same time which would lag your computer. And also, I'm pretty sure you get kicked for being afk too long like in every multiplayer griffpatch game

[@bradyn4065]

I love these videos SO much. Also for the chest system you could create a non cloud for creating an item code then plug that in to a cloud variable then use a list to decode it like a save code to keep the items in based on the item code

[@eboatwright_]

This is crazy cool! Scratcharia Multiplayer was my favorite game as a kid

[@SllverSpace]

I code in raw js and i've been trying to figure out how to code a mmo without consuming too much bandwidth since i'm using replit, this is really cool and seems like the whole sending packets by just syncing variables is really cool for scratch, but well the server still has to send all the variable updates so I still have to look around some more, but the whole storing your changes and then deleting them after you leave is so smart! Thanks for this as it will help me make my own projects and it's super cool to see you do stuff that should not be possible in scratch Also for your mobs, you could pass on mobs from player to player so they can be maintained as long as a few people are online, and for chests, try making ur encoder and decoder go with the item ids, so then each item in the chest is 1 digit long, then using that it should be possible to have one chest per player. So you would need to put a limit on the chests placed per player. (I'm assuming that each item has a id in a list or something, and that ur using the encoder and decoder from your cloud multiplayer tutorial series) Also with ur encoder and decoder, maybe you could change the numbers to actuall numbers, this could be done by adding a seperator letter like |, then you could save so much space and you could make the game so much less laggy.

Very Impressive Griffpatch!!. I have an idea if you like the idea of people having private multiplayer worlds [for this to work u will need a list called worlds which checks if the block updates are for its world ] what they can do is invite certain scratch accounts and the scratch accounts {assuming if in same experience} will get a special teleport request which when pressed makes them leave from the central map and loads the host players new world which can be saved and loaded . plus the host can be in charge of computing all the background block updates and mob updates

Honestly forgot about scratch. I've been working in C for a while trying to go back to fundamentals.. I wonder what I could do in scratch today. Subbed, you earned it with your commitment to pushing the platform's limits. Perhaps teams could be implemented using the same code you use to revert a player's changes on leaving? Somehow a player claims a small region (specifics aren't too important), and has ownership of those tiles until they leave. They could keep a list of trusted players, and overwrite any changes by untrusted players. Doesn't seem like that would be *too* difficult to implement, compared to the other things here.

hey griffpatch, i really love your content, and i say keep working, and i love how u figured out how to make many ppl play at once, but i think something really cool would be to have like a death run, or a parkour on the game. players could jump over the blocks, and u could addd in poison blocks that if u touch it, u die. i really love your content, though, and as u say, "SCRATCH ON!"

[@zarfik]

This is a very interesting topic with multiplayer! I do not really understand multiplayer, but perhaps to avoid players who destroy buildings need to add a privat. You can make in the block code (in coded form) the numbers either 0 or the order number of the player (0 is a block without a privat, and if there is a player number, then under the privat the player). Most likely you will also have to make some kind of tool that will allow you to create a privat. I don't know for sure if this will work, but it's just my idea of protecting player buildings.

[@ThunderCraftYT]

Sick! This is awesome! I have a question about a different video, did you ever make a part 4 for the text engine, I followed the first 3 but I didn’t see the 4th. Thanks! Love the videos!

[@wookiebear514]

This is crazy cool! Videos like these inspire me to be a better programmer For the claiming issue. Perhaps since changes are tracked already for name and position, have a block that "changes" blocks in a area around it to have the user id and a specific claim id thatd only let that user use that specific space?

[@user-jj9bn3mf5v]

Thank you Griffpatch your tutorials help me a lot.

[@reddraddev]

i rarely use scratch anymore but this is p neat and for the problem with griefing, maybe you could add a toggle for players to allow either nobody to edit what they've done, allow a select few users, or allow everybody. maybe just a button in a corner that changes a digit in your data packet to 0, 1, or 2, and that number indicates your limitations on other-player editing. as for allowing some people, you could add their encoded usernames after the original number this is just an idea tho and might not work well in practice. regardless, i hope this project goes well

[@siyustuff213]

i find it amazing how you essentially managed to make a changing world consistent across multiple players without having a host server. unreal

[@scratch-ifivafan]

I don't actually know how it works, but for saving changes for new players you could send users changes to other players and to scrattatach, and when a new player joins the game tiles would load directly from it(of course it would take some time). By the way, great project

[@mrmaymanalt]

Hey griffpatch! I really liked this video. I'm wondering if you can just send the current time of day value over the cloud, constantly updating with some sort of sync system, and all the block lighting is handled client side. Since all the players have the same lighting algorithm, they should have the same lighting.

[@legendgames128]

Sweet work thus far!

[@galsmith2098]

That was awesome!

[@xAymxneYT]

That is amazing griffpatch I love you tutorials

[@jeffdadaggoYT]

and for the lights you can make it light up based on when a player joins, a player that plays with you while you place the torch will be able to get the full light up at the same time but a new player at first not have to torch light lit up like it has just been placed, then it will eventually fully light up, hope that helps :)

[@vii-ka]

I like that you can place items down just like blocks! It reminds me of the Minecraft April Fools update 22w13oneBlockAtATime

[@M5J72XrtvEa24XteAIdNGA]

For building with others and still prevent people from griefing, you can make it so you can only destroy a certain amount of other players' blocks within a certain amount of time, or make it so you can't destroy other people's blocks at all, but add a chat function to ask someone to delete a certain block

[@Qubimium]

[@MastercaptainOfficial]

I have actually thought of using lists for multiplayer in my turbowarp game for a very long time , but I thought it wasn't possible (besides, there isn't no limit to how many cloud variables I can make in my game because I'm using Turbowarp). Thanks Griffpatch!

[@azeruezeru8764]

For land claim protection, you add a setting that toggles the list overwriting. Like if a player does not want their blocks to be broken, you could protect their change list and prevent it from being overwritten. Then limit the number of claimed-blocks they could place.

[@dylanherrera5395]

this project is amazing. i play mincraft a lot and it is realy like it. one thing i notaced is that stone normally spawns 5 blocks below dirt in miecraft but in your game is a bit diffrent and is depper. anyway love the game

[@FriendlyNeighborhoodPrgrammer]

I have a couple solutions to some of the issues you mention at the end Griffpatch, and they all revolve around client side calculations. So lets say someone removes a block, once the user on the other end receives that packet of data, we check whether or not the block above it is sand, if so, move if down on our screen and set the adjustment to be the player name of the data packet. Lighting would also be the same, with when any change happening just recalculate the lighting but only within a certain radius around the change to cut down on cost of CPU power. For day/night cycle you might be able to dedicate 1 variable to non-player data, like time of day, or any news you want stored. If you want to take things really far you could do something similar to what i did with an operating system of mine where i wanted all of the users data to be stored on the cloud. And that is to have a spare computer (does not have to be too powerful) which runs all of the calculations and AI and all of the other things. You most likely wont see this but i just wanted to throw this out here. PS: I'm a big fan, I've been watching since EP. 4 of your original cloud tutorial! :)

[@user-tl9ci5jl5g]

i have an idea for pvp: when players are mining or building you go into "change mode(or something like that)" which is where your changes are sent with more priority than your movement if you start running around or start using your weapon/s then your movements are sent and received by players with much more priority than your changes (i might have this completely wrong as i have only done a few cloud projects)

[@fishylabsstudios]

[@saugatmainali8567]

I love watching your videos and I love coding and my idea is that you could probably make it so that there are different servers so that everyone is not on the same server and so it does not get lag. I also think that you could make it so people could make their own servers so that their friends can play with them. Hopefully you see this and I hope that you can add it to the game!
