Here’s one straight from the old one-

Go to center :: motion

~~~~~~~~~

go to x: (0) y: (0) :: motion

A common suggestion found in the old topic:

while <> {

}:: control

can be done with:

repeat until <not <>>

end

YES RIP

delete all clones::control stack

workaround:

broadcast [delete all clones v]

when I receive [delete all clones v]
delete this clone

Doesn’t work with all sprites, especially if they are positioned differently.

Here’s some:
Previous costume:

previous costume ::looks

Workaround:

switch costume to ((costume #) - (1))

Visibility:

(visibility ::looks)

define show
show
set [visibility v] to [shown] //use instead of regular block
define hide
hide
set [visibility v] to [hidden] //use instead of regular block

Visible

<visible? ::looks>

Workaround: Do the define thing shown above, then add

<(visibility) = [shown]>

Alright, if you guys want to contribute please use the format I used in the first post for the point towards to x, y one. That'll take a lot of workload off for me.

Go To Center

Keywords: Search:center, search:0plane search:motion search:blocks
Go to center :: motion
This block can be replicated with:
go to x: (0) y: (0) :: motion 

Note: the costume may not center if it wasn’t centered in the costume but the go to center block wasn’t going to fix that anyway

Sound

Pause/Resume sound

Keywords: Search:pause search:sound search:blocks

define Pause / Resume sound
if <(volume) = [100]> then 
set volume to [0]
set pitch effect to ([-1]/[0])::sound
else
set volume to [100]
set pitch effect to [0]::sound
end

I like that idea of adding color, I'll add that soon. Could you add keywords to that please?

I don't see how this is a useful workaround.
