Costume Switching Not Possible (Sometimes) #986

Closed maryfries closed 8 years ago

maryfries commented 8 years ago

In NYC, one student had multiple costumes for the stage but could not switch between them. Neither the "next costume" block nor directly selecting one worked. I looked through her code and I couldn't find anything that I thought could have been breaking it. Reopening the project fixed the issue.

Those could be tainted (cross-origin restricted) costumes, alhtough I am checking for those, now. Also, this could just be a low-memory situation. Hey, sounds like you're doing massive media projects. Those are fun, but remember, you need adequate hardware and network resources to have fun with those :-)

The massive media stuff was a teacher-design project (which was really great). I think the solution is to make it clear to teachers that they will be just as limited by their school's bandwidth for BJC as they are for everything else.

Yeah. Bummer, I love massive media myself :-(
