Ok so, what’s is happening is the more blocks I put in the more the project editor gets slow and my phone with 2gb ram can’t run it well, is there any way to make it run faster?

1. You can collapse the simulator by clicking the arrow next to the toolbox. That should save some resources.
2. Alternatively, something that would majorly boost performance would be switching to JavaScript entirely because your phone doesn’t have to render blocks then

> I’m pretty sure block coding was ever intended for such large projects. One thing I do is to use the scroll wheel when moving up which helps with movement. Zooming out also reduced movement distance. Some actually useful solutions: -Blocks of code can be minimised by right clicking on it which helps lag (I always do this with arrays and character animations). Making and organising code with functions helps to do this. -Cleaning up unused blocks lying around (tidying your workspace!) -If you…
