@lisa_wolfgang created a version of this task manager for their team last year, but it's now available for all teams to use! This is a way to organize development, powered by cloud variables. It shows which tasks are open and which are taken (and by whom). HOW TO USE: The team leader, or someone else they choose, will set up and manage the task manager project. To set the project up: 1) Remix or make a copy. 2) Rename the 4 cloud variables. It doesn't matter what you rename them to, but this is necessary due to a Scratch bug. You could rename them "Chicken, Duck, Cluck, Quack" if you really wanted to. 3) Using the Admin Panel, toggle Public Mode so that it is turned OFF, then run **RESET ALL**. 4) Add everyone on your team to the "**TEAM ROSTER". The task manager will only allow people in this list to claim tasks. 5) Optionally, customize the project with your team's colors and graphics. Go to the "Theme" sprite to set the default project theme to light or dark mode. To use the task manager as the project owner: - Create tasks by duplicating the last costume of the "Task Manager" sprite. You can change anything except the sizing and positioning of the text. - Update your team roster list frequently so that everyone is able to use it. - For people who don't have the Scratcher status yet, use the Admin Panel to manually sign them up. To use the task manager as a team member: - If you're not on the team roster, notify the team leader via a comment. - Claim a task by selecting its "Open" button. - Mark it finished by selecting "Taken" then "Finished?". - Cancel your spot by selecting "Taken" then "Cancel?".
