Re-add santa hats in the editor

[ampelectrecuted]

They are now enabled on the forums but not in the editor.

when green flag clicked set [santa hats V] to <t> when flag clicked::santa say [Santa hats are back!]

also why did the forums keep typing a santa emoji when i tried to type ::santa lol

They are always available on the forums, but actually they are in the dev version right now!

also i know they’ve always been an option on the forums, but now they’re default just like they were exactly 1 year ago i think

I enabled them by default on the forum just cause it’s a simple toggle. Enabling them in snap requires an update, which isn’t as easy.

I’m undecided about this. I’ve put santa hats into dev (along with a little update), but we might decide to hold back releasing the current work-in-progress until it’s more complete. At the moment it would be a good time for a partial, minor release with some features, but we feel that the changes are actually so substantial (and exciting!) that it might be worthwhile to keep working on them for perhaps even some more months, maybe until next Spring or even Summer. In the meantime, enjoy santa hats in dev!

Santa’s hat support is still there but moved slightly out of sight.

drag this into snap

(then go to settings → looks)

Whats the point in obfuscating your solution?

BTW: executing the generic event script when pic is dragged seems like a misfeature.

What are you talking about?

[specialred]

i think he’s talking about how the hat deletes itself right after you place it in the editor

@dardoro

Whats the point in obfuscating your solution?

if that is what you mean, it’s probably because there’s no point in having the block take up space in the editor/palette after it adds santa hats, since that’s its only purpose and you can’t add it twice
i, personally would just delete it if it didn’t do it itself

@dardoro

obfuscating

sorry, it was just way more convenient for both me and the person who uses the block.
