scratch-render modified for use in CodeTorch. We've optimized some operations and added a lot of options.
This renderer (ct-pm-* files) reproduces the behaviour of PenguinMod's blocks ("Advanced blocks") so that PenguinMod projects (.pmp) can be opened in CodeTorch. The implementation is written independently on top of TurboWarp; PenguinMod's source was used as a description of the behaviour and its VM as a test oracle. PenguinMod-Render is licensed under the same license as this repository.
Supported: PenguinMod as of the commits below. We don't track PenguinMod; projects using anything newer still open, but blocks we don't know yet become inert placeholders.

See https://github.com/TurboWarp/scratch-gui/wiki/Getting-Started to setup the complete TurboWarp environment.
If you just want to play with the render then it's the same process as upstream scratch-render.
Public APIs are compatible with a vanilla scratch-render. TurboWarp/scratch-render is a drop-in replacement for scratch-render.
Notable public API additions include:
renderer.setUseHighQualityRender(enabled: boolean)toggles high quality rendering. AUseHighQualityRenderChangedevent is emitted on the renderer when this is called. You can read the current setting withrenderer.useHighQualityRenderbut don't try to directly modify this value.renderer.markSkinAsPrivate(skinID: number)marks a skin as "private".renderer.allowPrivateSkinAccesscontrols whether blocks like "touching color" can access "private" skins.renderer.offscreenTouchingcontrols whether collision blocks work offscreen.- Skins no longer extend EventEmitter
RenderWebGL.powerPreferencecan be set to change the WebGL powerPreference option for future RenderWebGL instances. (default, high-performance, or low-power)
