Nice!
But why did you remove “forever if” and “hide all sprites”?

Not the beloved forever if! D:

Oh well, it can be substituted extremely easily.

I didn't see this on the update page but it looks like views were fixed. Most of my projects were fixed to have the new views but a few weren't updated but now, they're all counted by views instead of IP views.

Probably because you can just replace it with an if block inside a forever block.

The removal of forever if was probably for the better.

This is explains why my project didn't work! I was scripting a game while you was updating scratch xD …so, that's probably why the ‘'forever if’' and ‘'clone starup’' didn't work when I scripted.

I would say that forever if is more of a forever and a if else block as the condition if false can end the script where as forever and if will execute forever

Yay! a lot of scratchers thought there was no line tool, when you could use shift now it's more clear.

Why did you remove “hide all sprites?”
