My school saw me posting about this and gave me ISS for a day
The reason they gave was “Posting Anti Campus Propaganda”

My school blocked Makecode Arcade and just Makecode Arcade, microbit and minecraft and the hub website have been spared. My school has done something really personal by just blocking my hobby and not blocking the hundreds of other more problematic game websites.

Your school knows about your forum account? Thats also extremely petty. “Oh no, a student is expressing their opinion on The Internet! Whatever shall we do?”
Genuinely why do schools have beef with Makecode Arcade for no reason. 5000 online game websites and they have to specifically track down the actually educational one.

I understand people using AI to help them understand things, like math above their grade level and what some words mean, but other than that, I agree with you. Yes, people might say that AI should be allowed in schools, and sure, it’d be helpful, but in my mind, USING AI TO HELP is different than ASKING AI TO DO EVERYTHING FOR YOU. Like let’s say you’re allowed to use AI in school on an essay. I’d say if you ask it something like “What’s a synonym for said” or something similar, that’s fine (although you should still ALWAYS try to think for yourself before asking AI), but if you simply say “Can you make my essay better” and give your entire crappy 4-sentence essay that you spent no time on to the AI so it can give you a fully polished one, that’s ridiculous. Using it for art is different though, because it means you’re not taking ANY time whatsoever to think for yourself or be creative in any way. I’d say that if you make art with AI, it’s not your art, or creativity, or ideas, but all the AI’s “effort” (if you can call searching through sources using keywords to generate an image “effort” (which I don’t)). But yeah, I agree with you on this, it’s one thing for people to be lazy and have AI generate art for them, but a LITERAL SCHOOL CLASS ABOUT TELLING AI HOW TO GENERATE SOMETHING SO YOU DON’T HAVE TO BE CREATIVE is just downright ridiculous. Like seriously, what kind of world will this be fifty years into the future if we continue down this path? I agree with you completely; I’d probably be doing the same thing.

Well, you gotta move on someday!
Unless you wanna somehow use your MakeCode games for commercial purposes, ya gotta move on to better frameworks or game engines.

The secret
So, make code allows you to make image arrays.
Sorting all these images into an array with a delay means that we can make an animation! We could also add a variable like x (for frames) We select a number for the variable and then put that inside the wait block.
if you wanted to delete a frame you select what frame you want to be deleted and the delete item (your input) for the array will do its thing.
