Message passing not working

[Emiliano De Laurentiis]

When using message passing (i.e. "Broadcast message" and "When I receive message") nothing happens.

I am using version 0.0.8 of Enchanting and OS X Lion on my computer.

I tried several different ways of passing messages. Someone sent me code from her computer, just broadcasting one message that worked. Then, when I modified it to broadcast two messages, it did not work. Maybe you need a broadcast and wait block?

I tried something similar in Scratch and it worked perfectly and as predicted.

I know it has been a while since you've reported this bug. Do you recall if you were broadcasting a message immediately after the green flag was clicked? I've found that if the threads that are waiting on a broadcast aren't started before the broadcast occurs, they never receive it. I don't know how to fix it, but you can work around it by waiting, say, a quarter second after the green flag is clicked before you broadcast a message.
