Is there a way to learn how to script with javascript and with the cospaces api?

Hi @BL4Z3W0LF,

If you use the search bar in the Gallery to search for “Script” you will find quite a few remixable CoSpaces which will help you to learn the Javascript/Typescript syntax.

You can also search this forum for “Scripting” for other examples, including:

Scripting-only features

Things you can do in Javascript/Typescript, using the CoSpaces API, which you can’t do in CoBlocks: Physics Make explosions - you can both explode (push away), and implode (pull towards, using negative values): Physics | CoSpaces API Sound Load sounds before needed - this is useful in games and animation, in order to play sounds straight away (they aren’t loaded by default, like other Items, except background sounds). Change volume of Sound - you can set the volume for a sound, or us…

There’s also a very old (and out-of-date) YouTube playlist of script tutorials at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-5z4WFgxy-U&list=PLzMy4I6CG3aOekuEcbJazFE1nPHCMOCxp

I might make a simple video tutorial on this, if that would be useful. I also have a weekly CoSpaces class which you could join, if the time suits.

Hope that helps! Let me know if you have any further questions about this. If this solves your problem, please mark this post as the Solution.

Many thanks,
