@@jboydayz, missiles shooting at each other is actually pretty complicated. You want your missile pointing at the nearest enemy missile, but to do that you need Scratch to see the location of every missile on the screen and decide which one is closest. It's certainly do-able, but it's a little too complicated for many new scratchers.
Thanks a lot! The channel has been growing a lot in the past couple of weeks, and we're very hopeful those subscriber numbers will keep going up. Thanks for watching!
Somebody asked me about this a few months ago and I posted a Scratch project that seeks much more slowly. The math is VERY complicated, but feel free to steal my code. scratch.mit.edu/projects/911911599/
The missile in this example is constantly updating its rotation to face its target. I'm not sure how you could get any smoother than that. Can you clarify what you mean?
OK, you sent me down quite a rabbit hole with this request. To create a missile that steers towards a target rather than simply pointing at it, you need to compare your missile's angle to your ship's angle and then decide if turning clockwise or counter-clockwise will get you there faster. In advanced coding languages like C++ you can pull this off using as function called delta angle, but since Scratch doesn't include that function we had to create it. Here's the project: scratch.mit.edu/projects/911911599/
Well, the code we gave you in the video definitely works, so you've picked the wrong block or put it in the wrong place. Go have a look at Alien Interceptor, our reference project at scratch.mit.edu/projects/820030166 and compare your missile code to what's there. Just like in the video there are three custom blocks that handle the guided missile AI.
I love the effort in this one, the tutorials are getting better and better.
Thanks for noticing!
@@atomecstudios could you do guided missiles shooting at each other please

@@atomecstudios okay, thanks for telling me.
@@atomecstudios I’m no new scratcher
These guides are litteary making me so much better at scratch, THANK YOU!!!!
We're hearing that a lot! Thanks for the feedback.
@@atomecstudios no problem 😉
You deserve way more subscribers and likes!

Hey, what is the background music from 0:10 to 0:25? I want to use it for a game :)
It's called Epic Theme #1 by Steven O'Brien

yea but how to make it slowly seek? like when you fly behind it, missle wold do half a circle to point at you?

plz haw make cliker game in scratch
Bro just typed “how” and “clicker” wrong 💀
@@Sikco-1111 chill out hes just 5 😡
Good idea! I'll try and squeeze that in.
How do I make the missile seek more smoothly (for cool looking projectiles)?

@atomecstudios basically slower seeking (slowly turning instead of instantly pointing)

i like the alien move.because its smooth
Thanks. Yeah, I didn't have time to discuss it in this tutorial, but I'll be in explaining smooth movement techniques in a future video.
I would flip it (it's not seeing then it's just flying to elsewhere)
Funny videos. Thanks for post
Thanks!
High score in an list
it does not work...

mine doesent work
Sorry to hear that. Please check your missile code and compare it to what's in our file. scratch.mit.edu/projects/810384815/
Ours works, we promise!
