Seems cloud variables are now limited to 128 characters in length. Previously, the limit was something like 10,240. This makes things like large highscores tables/online chats nearly impossible to implement. What's going on? - Setting cloud variables to be greater than 128 characters in length results in the server silently rejecting the request. - Your local scratch client pretends that the cloud variable has been updated, but if you refresh the page or look in the cloud data log you can see that in fact the old cloud variable remains. Workarounds? - none This change in how cloud variables work is not very well documented, seems to just have happened silently sometime in February and broken lots of projects in the process. This is confirmed in a single hard-to-find forum post, in a thread several pages deep. #makescratchgreatagain
