This project receives data from an external website - no cloud server required! HOW TO USE: 1. Press the green flag and wait for the project to load 2. Open https://voxalice2.github.io/web2scr 3. Type a string into the textbox, then click "Go" 4. Come back to the Scratch project 5. Wait a few seconds to see what you typed It even has cross-device support! Try it! Check out my (less stable) remix as well: https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/1038049604/ I've only tested this project and the website in Google Chrome. If the project doesn't work for you, please post what went wrong and what browser you use in the comments. SIMPLIFIED EXPLANATION: The "Translate" extension works in interesting ways. When any string is translated, the result gets saved in a cache, and any translations of the same string will reuse that saved result. When a translation result is reused, it gets returned much faster than normal - specifically, a few hundred milliseconds faster. Because of this quirk, a project can translate a string and see how long it takes to get a result. If the translation finishes fast enough, the project knows it found a saved string. (The actual translation result doesn't matter, just how fast it was returned.) By checking for many different saved strings, my project can receive saved data! As for how my website saves data, it simply makes the same translation requests that a Scratch project would make, which saves certain strings that my project checks for. UPDATES: 1 - Implemented data sending and receiving 2 - Made receiving automatic (no button) 3 - Fixed some corruption ( but not all of it :( ) 4 - Simplified bin2dec and fixed more corruption CREDITS: Remix of https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/116203262/ - Unix Time by @-Rex-Test- This project is inspired by: https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/678420788/ Username Tracking by @Retr0id Cross Project Communication by Scratch Cat Clicker by ⚡ Local* Cross-Project Storage (experimental beta) v0.2 by Apparently, came up with this concept first, but now their profile is deleted.
