Wait, how are comments broken? They are as immediate as set variable blocks. The extra delay only occurs in blue and purple containers. Magenta containers aren’t affected by this delay.

it wouldn’t save past the first line of my comment - there wasn’t a delay in how my code ran, it just wasn’t saving my notes. i needed those, especially at that particular stage of coding, to save how i was encoding the music notes.

edit: i just checked again and it won’t even pull up the keyboard to let me type notes in a comment block now.

Ok, then you are definitely experiencing a bug I encountered in this version (the keyboard not opening was the side effect. Usually exiting and re-entering the project fixes this, but may result in some of your code becoming corrupted / not as expected).

Also, 3.59.0 mainly only fixed a bug related to custom images not uploading correctly.

For me, I got a local variable to appear like it was part of the text in a set variable block

So it looked like this: [Set (var) to local] instead of this: [Set (var) to (local)]

It was an extremely rare bug that I somehow caught, lol.

Hey guys! Want to earn some seeds?

If you guys want some seeds, i could use some help :wink:

if you could find the sheet music for any song on my masterlist (see OP) that does not have a “yes” in the coded? question, and translate it from sheet music to plain piano notes (abcdefg) that would help me a ton! i will pay 15 seeds for every song you translate. thanks!

i’m not tagging my TL cause i don’t want it to be annoying but yeah @/a_latte_of_hops wanna help out?

i am currently working on coding Back On Track. most complex song i’ve ever played on piano to date, and only the second song i’ve ever coded :face_with_peeking_eye:

edit: i did find sheet music for it but i still need to get it into note form so i can code it, and then i need to play it to figure out timing. progress, tho!

@Tri-Angle hey, i’m using the method you showed me for the backgrounds for my scenes. is there a way to destroy the clones so that the loading animation looks smoother w/o messing up the screen if you leave/rejoin a scene? i feel like we discussed this at one point but i don’t remember what we did. i can link you if you need it.

String Reader

i wanted to share how the reader works, what doesn’t work yet, and what i’m planning on adding.

Notes

There are currently 7 notes, 2 functions, that the reader can process. That’s roughly half the hopscotch notes library, not counting sharps and flats. I have yet to add sharps and flats into the reader.
The two functions are Increase speed and Decrease speed.

The Reader

Each note and function is made of three characters. Functions are made of theee of the same character.

Character 1 - Octave.
Character 2 - Note. (abcdefg) [1]
Character 3 - Normal/Sharp/Flat (0/1/2)

Functions - XXX/iii
Typing XXX (case sensitive) will speed up how fast your player goes (decreases duration of the note by -0.15)
Typing iii (case sensitive) will slow down how fast your player goes (increases duration of the note by 0.15)

I will probably be adding more functions later, to change the speed by bigger increments.

I’m planning on including the higher octave of notes in update 0.5 or 0.6, and adding four new functions to speed up and slow down the tempo by increments of 0.5 and 0.10. The functions will likely be available in update 0.6

I’m also planning on adding a “create your own” option! This will give a short tutorial in how the string reader works, and then will open an input field where the user can put together a string that will then play their song!

As of 0.4, if a note is unreadable the player will make an error sound and continue reading the string.

  1. hopscotch views 1e0 as a number, so to type the note e, you actually have to type 1h0 ↩︎
