[@JacksonAcademy1]

Cool tutorial! You could use this if the person doesn't connect to the internet and they get the highscore, then the highscore saves as a non-cloud variable, and then when internet is detected again, the highscore saves to the cloud.

[@TheSTEAMist]

Nice idea! You could also maybe use this for kicking players off multiplayer games :)

*finally, people can make games that require you to turn off your wifi during a specific section of the game*

[@TheSTEAMist]

that would be cool!

[@averagecodegame]

You can also use the translate blocks repeatedly to get the internet speed as well.

[@TheSTEAMist]

coool!

[@cheesepop7175]

its not exactly the internet speed it still takes time to process the text and translate it

[@averagecodegame]

@@cheesepop7175 it's still pretty accurate

[@lzy2]

how what

[@averagecodegame]

@@lzy2 You translate a random number 1000 times and then you do some math to get the final speed.

[@RoryChaotix]

This is genius! I never knew making something like this could be so simple.

[@TheSTEAMist]

Glad you like it!

[@Montegasppa]

Just some fine tunes: 1st) You’ve built a DoS attack!! Your forever loop is requesting the translation server 30 times every second! (Or even more if you activate turbo mode.) You should put a “wait” inside that loop (I recommend to wait 0.5s). 2nd) A programming gold rule is never ever use if-then-else with a negative condition, it makes the code confusing. Remove the “not” and invert the blocks. 3rd) It really makes no sense to hide and show the sprite. The show block is in both “then” and “else” blocks, so it could be outside. Even so, it’s performed 0.0333s after the sprite has been hidden. So it makes no sense at all.

[@lzy2]

me finding out ive built a DoS attack: hehehe i am literally not going to do this because i like scratch hehehe >:)

[@Montegasppa]

@@lzy2 I like Scratch too much as well. 🤗 A simple “wait” block inside the loop fixes that. 😉

@@Dayreaverthe_Theo you do realize DDOS attacks are actually illegal, right? pretty sure you don't wanna go to jail over that joke, do you

[@SphlactinoYT]

I believe you could also make a variable, set it to a random value. Then, set a cloud variable to it. If they are not equal, internet is not detected.

[@TheSTEAMist]

cool method! :D

[@SphlactinoYT]

@@TheSTEAMist I tried the method, and surprisingly, it doesn't work! Scratch can still access cloud servers even if the internet is off! Shocking!

[@hwdrlkh]

@@SphlactinoYT Cloud variables are treated as non-cloud variables if you're not connected to the internet or don't have access to them.

[@alanchan3814]

@@hwdrlkh Yeah.👍

[@Copperdude]

@@hwdrlkh they are pushed (like github repos) to the cloud when a command is given (command is given every ~5mins)

Wow, that's very smart with the translater. I tried to detect it with Cloud Variables 😂😂

Did it work? :)

I might use this in my new Scratch invention: Scratch to the Max to make sure the special server is making a good connection with the game. I will probably also add speed tests.

[@TheSTEAMist]

Cool!

Imagine if someone uses this in a scratch project where it will not allow you to play unless you have internet.

doesn’t work. once you translate, it gets saved temporarily so if I translated “hello” to Chinese on Wifi and disconnect, it would still say the translation. also I’m pretty sure with enough requests g translate will block requests
