I have had an amazing idea I was thinking about for the better part of a week. I always get annoyed with the way lots of particle effects on sprites lags the game. That is why I think we should be able to code animations that save. That way we could do all the computing ONCE. This might be hard to implement, as this would basically require an editor inside an editor.

I do have an idea to update the ray-casting extension. If the extension is in your game, when you go into making tile images, what if you could set it to a “slant” or “Wall” slant would allow the player to go up vertically, and a “wall” would just be a 2D image that acts like a wall. I could continue with “floor” tiles and “Ceiling” tiles, even talking about “map levelling”. But that would be to much of a post, although I wouldn’t mind going into detail if someone wanted to read a long post.

You underestimate how bad Chromebooks are.
I can sometimes barely open MakeCode arcade because of how laggy it is and every half an hour the site crashes. (Sometimes deleting the entire project)

Honestly, I kinda want a variable that says “closest sprite of kind “Player” to “mySprite””. Also, This has already been stated, but different camera angles for each player. And to be honest, I want a extension for me that before the game starts, it’ll show my symbol and say “made by ShaneyBoi”, so you can just add the extension without having to code it in. And it can only be erased by getting rid of the extension.

The ability to turn off collisions between sprites of the same type. This would massively improve the speed of certain projects if it was incorporated.
