Post what updates you want to see in Makecode in hopes of the mods seeing it and considering your ideas.
Something I have in mind for extensions:
Be able to submit extensions so they show on the extensions tab when nothing is inputted into the search bar.
This is really random, but collapsible comments that can hold functions (on start, on game update, custom functions, etc.). Like, you make a comment, drag the function(s) into it like its separate workspace, and you can collapse the comment like you could with a function.
Could really help with lag in blocks, and could make JavaScript and Python cleaner!
(I’ve been wanting this since I’ve been scrolling through my code, trying to find a certain function, collapsing the other functions, realizing I needed to change some art, changing the art in the assets tab, going BACK into JavaScript, and having to collapse the functions AGAIN, and FINALLY changing ONE thing!) It’d just be a nice QOL thing.
I got multiple, ONE, SLOPES, (maybe in tile maps as a different wall type, or as an extension) TWO mp3 support, so you can put in audio files!
more colors… maybe 25 colors like the NES.
Multiple code editors… Like in javascript and python, you could have multiple files. I am imagining the tile map page switcher thing at the bottom of the screen. Makecode could then remember the other ones in the simplest way possible, with no graphics handling. Then we could switch.
A block that can change the screen size without java script
Wait that’s actually fire.
We kinda can do that with extensions, but extensions are complicated.
You can but the extension has to meet a whole bunch of requirements. It’s more trouble than it’s worth, but if your really dedicated to doing it good luck.
Part 2, MOVING PLATFORM EXTENSION! and animated backgrounds!
Or, Like, Hitboxes you can draw. Like you could have a editor like the tile editor, but you draw hit boxes. You could then draw on different hitboxes on blocks. like a half slope, or something.
Mouse locking in Keyboard Events Extension.
I want to see slopes, more colors, or even moving platforms. But I want to see custom hitboxes. Like circular hitboxes.
Part 3. SHRINKABLE WALL (make them any size you want) , MULTIPERSPECTIVE CAMERA! (Allows 1, 2, 3, and 4 played to have different cameras, without sharing the same screen (like in the multiplayer mode of the emulator, only one player can have a camera on a single screen this would make it so you can click on a different player and have the camera go onto them
Makecode Mobile App, It SUCKS to code on mobile
Onion skinning in the animation editor please i beg of you
@_jupiter we have that?
I beg as well!
THATS A THING!?!
