"Pause Sounds" and "Resume Sounds" blocks? (23 supporters)
Please state why you support the suggestion. It's not very constructive when you say “support” or “100% support” and not to add anything after without further explaination. I support this forum 100%

Thank you for supporting the suggestion! This is also a good idea, too. But please don't use scratch blocks to spam here, (using random sentences that don't contribute to the current topic and discussion) use them here instead in this topic: https://scratch-mit-edu.ezproxyberklee.flo.org/discuss/topic/706823/?page=1I support this because I myself wanna make some music and then the cool ability to make it stop and play again.Please state why you support the suggestion.

Although this is honestly a really good idea in my opinion, there is a somewhat workaround…
(I’m not sure if it 100% works and I’ll elaborate—and I do apologize if this has been brought up before)
I usually make a pause script like this:
and unpause like this:
This usually works for me, but I’m not sure if it’ll work 100% because it’s still technically playing just very slowly—I’d have to conduct a lil research, but this still a useful short-term pause workaround.
(Personally though I agree that we need a block for this lol)
(I’m not sure if it 100% works and I’ll elaborate—and I do apologize if this has been brought up before)
I usually make a pause script like this:
when I receive [pause](Do note that I just used the pitch effect instead of the
set volume to (0) %
set pitch effect to (-99999999...)
set tempo to () bpmjust because of 3.0 existing and all, I thought the bpm instead of pitch effect might confuse, so that, hence the block color being red-)
and unpause like this:
when I receive [unpause]
set pitch effect to (0)
set volume to (100) %
This usually works for me, but I’m not sure if it’ll work 100% because it’s still technically playing just very slowly—I’d have to conduct a lil research, but this still a useful short-term pause workaround.
