start script anObject aScript vs. anObject aScript in eToy

Young-Jin Lee-3
Dear all,

I have a question about calling scripts on an object. It seems that there are two different ways to run scripts associated with an object.
One way is to directly send the corresponding message to the object (e.g., anObject aScript) and another way is using "start script" tile available in the "Scripting" category.
Can anyone explain the difference between these two cases?

Thanks in advance.

One executes the script once, the other makes it tick.
