Making DUCK LIFE in Scratch is HARDER than you think

[@ultra_9861]

scratch isn't really easy it's simple a common misconception about simple is that simple = easy, which it really isn't scratch might be easy for small porjects but if you want to make something advanced, even a platformer, you will need to do the physics, collisions, movement all from *scratch*

[@thenewboeguy]

A platformer is easier than you think, just code up some movement with 2 variables. Move the player on the y axis, check for collisions, if there are any, fix them, do the same for the X axis. And yeah, you’re done. Don’t forget gravity tho.

[@freshicejuice]

Scratch Jr. is more simple than scratch but even Griffpatch struggles with it

[@ultra_9861]

@@thenewboeguy well yeah but still it is much MUCH easier to do that in godot or unity i just brought up platformers as an example checking collisions is one thing, but fixing them is a whole 'nother thing sure you can go to your old x or y but if you want to add slopes, make accurate collisions and ect., you will need more knowledge not even talking about jumping, many beginners still struggle with it without a griffpatch tutorial like i mentioned, it is much easier to do that in other engines, since the wall collision is already built in and if you want to go even MORE complex and add a scrolling tiling level, just use another engine at that point i get why people use scratch, like telling everyone that you built a 3d wireframe renderer in scratch sounds cool, but there is a reason why scratch is sometimes considered "the worst engine ever"

[@ultra_9861]

also i understand if you arent reading allat basically doing complex things in scratch can be cool, but it can be easier to do things in other engines sure a clicker is easier to make in scratch but if you are gonna make a scrolling tile based platformer, just use godot or unity at that point

Yep he is! Warfame's tower defense is really basic and barebones. It exists solely because of his tutorial. Griffpatch's tower defense is decent, but comparing it to Vectoid TD is like comparing BTD4 to BTD6.

Hey! Clones can detect collision with eachother, you need click on another sprite, place an "if touching [sprite name]" and drag it to the cloned sprite

instead of using : show switch costime to (hitbox) Collision hide you could have done a simple ghost 100 block (it still allows for sprite detection) and used the define block with this updated script: Define [Update] switch costume to (hitbox) Collision its as simple as that

[@howtodrawwithpaint4648]

I have play duck life when I was young but I still remember

[@coreERds]

Use scratch objects at background so player can't see them because are covered with another object and set positions as pen drawed objects so you can get colisions at objects

[@koolgamzstudio]

Welcome to, Koolgamzstudio being a dumb coder on scratch not knowing why clones are bad WHY ARE CLONES BAD, AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA They look better than pen, they can have their own variables, they are basically their own sprites You're sacrificing almost no performance using them instead of pen either, if you need data from clones you can use lists like pen

[@ggenije]

In this particular case , you can't check with which clone of ground is duck colliding with (duck are clones and ground are clones). That's why I had to create a sprite for each ground part. Second, you can't combine clones with the pen because clones will always be on top. Third, if you're using lists for data , that will mean only a purpose clone would have is as rendering script caller, but that will limit you to 300 objects. In conclusion, clones are like lazy solutions, which always turn to bebad decisions if you want to make something serious. That's why I use clones for small projects only like this, and I still get some kind of problems.

Ok, hear me out, but am i the only one of his viewers who doesn't know how to attach a uid to a stamp, I'm making a topdown shooter game and it's pretty much infinite so I'd like to tell me in the comments or just link me to a KZbin video because i didn't find any( and also can these stamped copies have their own local variables? Oh i forgot you can use lists)

[@ggenije]

Stamping is equivalent to replacing pixel on pen canvas with the current sprite pixels. Which means stamping is just rendering method , and doesn't have any local data: scratch.mit.edu/projects/580938352/ There are no "stamp" objects, "stamp" is like drawing line on paper, it's just a line, you can't ask how much "health" this line have, because it's line, it's just the visually. Now if you want to have objects, you need to manually store their data in LISTS, so for example you have topdown shooter, and each object have X,Y,HP, Speed, Type etc., Then you need to create a list for each of these , so create list X, then list Y and so on. Then when you have multiple lists, you use that data to render using stamps. So you first clear all from pen canvas using "erase all" block, then you iterate through each data in the lists with "repeat" block, that way you know based on X , Y and type (and other lists), where and what object to draw. For example first is (-20,60) type red enemy, so you need to go to that coordinate, switch costume to red enemy, and stamp. So each frame you repeat , erase all, draw all enemies. Now you need separate script for logic of the game, you again iterate through lists, but you need to change the X and Y lists , for each enemy depending where it needs to go, also the collision must be written manually (since touching block only, work with scratch objects, and objects made with lists and stamp aren't scratch objects, but you can them custom objects). The easiest way to create collisions are circle vs circle or AABB vs AABB collision (check on internet).

@@ggenije yea i know i just didn't want to write an entire 69420 page paragraph

[@томни]

​​@@ggenije also thanks because when i stil used clones i set the wave to 100 and the enemies stopped spawning (yes,i knew about the clone limit) and 2, i tried to make the health into a list, but it was to hard to manage when the only thing I've got is add health to healths and if hit replace the item of clone uid with clone's health, but no matter how hard i tried, there was always bugs(like the enemies not chasing the player, all the enemies dying when only one should, the enemies not spawning at all and ect.). So huh i guess you were right all along(clones still could be used w/ stuff like menus if they're not complicated or just testing, but in most cases you shouldn't use clones(and if you only want to duplicate the sprite without linking to the original (first clone)). The only con about stamping objects at new positions is that the stamped versions are compressed(my game is pixel art so it's not a problem at all) And yea, i want each enemy to spawn a coin after defeat and this becomes hell on later waves

They are slow, have a 300 clone limit, because if it's too much your computer will probably go boom, and they an be tricky to manage if tou have a lot of them.

DON'T USE CLONES!? Are you KIDDING!? Trust me, when I say that if you don't use clones, you don't know how to use scratch correctly. Without clones you wouldn't be able to make multiple enemies without either making multiple sprites, or saving their data in a list. The reason it was so hard is because you didn't use clones. Even using another sprite would be easier then a pen extension. If you choose to not use clones for other games, then I think you should at least try it once. I am 100% certain that clones in scratch are the way to go when making any scratch game.

[@lcajueiro]

Sometimes clones are a bad choice though. It’s only good if you plan to delete them relatively fast. If you dont delete them though, it’s gonna lag a ton and there’s a limit. Sometimes using pen is better
