Change a server port from 50209 to 50210 #18

Hi Alan, not sure if I have to use this channel to give a suggestion....sorry in case not.

I would like to suggest you to change the server port of file s2m_http_server.py from 50209 to 50210. That will be nice in case a user want to combine extensions (Arduino and micro:bit). So an Arduino can communicate to micro:bit via Scratch and vice versa. I have changed my local file and worked fine for this purpose. Thanks!

Hi Edson, posting here is appropriate. Can you please give me some more detail how about this works? What I am asking is, is there a single instance of Scratch controlling both the Arduino and the micro:bit or 2 separate instances? What is the mechanism for both boards to communicate with each other? Thanks

Hi Alan, I have already combined 3 Strach extenstions S2aio and S2m and ScratcherControl (Android). As I changed the port in my local file 50209 for S2aio and 50210 for S2m, I can have a single instance of Scratch and I can connect Arduino and S2m at the same time. Following one example about micro:bit sending data to Scratch and change the Servo position: (sorry to be in pt-br)

Thanks!

Ok, I now see how you did it. I am not going to change the port number because if I do, if some users have saved their Scratch projects and try to run them again, they will not work. I will be leaving things as is. Also, I do not how I would bring up everything automatically for users that want both Arduino and micro:bit.

I am closing this issue, but if you have any other questions, you can post them here and I will see them even though the issue is closed.
