How do we get a name of objects?
It would look like this
- It does not give name of costume object, it gives name of current costume of sprite object.
- It does not give name of any sprite object, you would need to ask other sprites to get them.
- This one is correct, it gives name of sound object.

If a costume object is not in the costume list it doesn’t have a name (I don’t think)
There’s also this
This works different
This works different?
Yea
(Costume name) of (my costume) doesn’t work, but that does
Um, it does work for me?
That’s what imnsaying
I think @cookieclickerer33 meant the following:
Imagine that you have a sprite with a costume named "Smiley".
The following script, ((costume name) of (my (costume))), does not work, as it returns
However, this script, ((name) of costume (my (costume))), does work, returning
the bad way
Is there any other way? The reason why I posted that, was because the title mentions getting the name of a sprite, yet no one here has given a solution to that.
I asked about getting a name of object, not about getting a name of sprite object. I also wanted to learn if there is any other way to do that
What do you mean, an object? Like {foo: "bar"}??
Im not sure if i understand what foo bar is, by object i mean 3 types, sprites, costumes, sounds, the input would take object, and give a name of object we placed in input
Name of Sprite:
Name of costume:
Name of sound:
You can trivially write that using the IS _ A _ ? block to find out which kind of object your input is.
I can, in fact i do, i just thought there might be some other way
There is a deep idea behind the syntactic differences. Costumes and sounds are passive objects: they can't run blocks. Only sprites and the stage are active objects, a/k/a actors, a/k/a agents. (Yeah, the stage breaks the actor metaphor.) So, in particular, only actors can run the MY block, as in MY NAME. To find the name of a passive object, you have to get an active object to run a block along the lines of _ OF COSTUME _.
