Project is taking too long to open

Bugs and Other Issues
1

when theres a bunch of blocks in a single project it takes too long to reopen. Idk anything about coding since im still student but still, its taking a lot of my time (Still waiting for it to open btw). Why is it like this and how can I open my project. Its already a second project remade from the old one because I couldn't open it. I dont want to make another project, plus tomorrow is my deadline.

What does that mean?

How many?

Do you use large assets, like mp3, movieclips, etc. etc.

  • Reduce your block count:
    • Use parametrized procedures for common code
    • Use Media text files instead of big clumps of text blocks
    • Use generic blocks instead of repeating component event blocks
    • Encode repeating decision patterns into lookup tables loaded from Media csv text files (does your blocks image look like a box of combs?)
    • You don't need a component for every data instance. Reuse those components.
    • If you can't fit data into a ListView or List Picker, show a small subset of the data in an Arrangement and slide it across the larger list of data.
    • Shrink the block count of your largest procedure or event, by dividing it up into calls to smaller procedures with fewer blocks. That might limit the stack height burden on the build process.
