Oh my gosh, that “stop specific sound” script is kind of genius.

Alright, we've put together a list of all the suggestions here and are going to be going over it at our own pace. We'll keep y'all updated on new additions or other notes. This is very belated, but thanks a million to everyone who's shown interest and shared their suggestions all the time this thread's been around!

OK, we've added two-ish new workarounds:
We were kind of confused by Malicondi's workaround, though? It doesn't seem to make a circle, just kind of a diagonal line that the sprite travels along in a cos/sin wave. Their code doesn't refer to the sprite's existing position or direction at all, so we made the closest thing we know of, which goes to a specific point on a circle around a point (using the same input names).

We were also kind of surprised the “distance to x: y:” block wasn't part of the guide already. It's there now, and we use it as part of 1080GBA's method for “rotate around x: y:”!

Method 2: hacked “while” block

(!) Please note that although hacked blocks like this one are a functioning part of the Scratch language, their usage isn't officially supported by the Scratch Team. There is a chance that projects using hacked blocks may be marked NFE, preventing the project from appearing on the front page or under the Explore section.

Scratch only marks as NFE projects that feature this blocks¹. Your project will not be marked as NFE if you use hacked blocks, but projects that feature or showcase a hack could be marked as NFE, according to a Scratch Team member. However, if you just use these blocks to enhance your project you should be fine.

¹this applies to for example, @quchhia's hacked block collection.

Oh, that makes sense and is neat to hear, thank you—could you share the source for it, if you have it or can find it, though? I'd rather include that assurance in the guide backed by a proper source or direct quote.

No worries! Also a tip for fun: if you like writing :P but don't like that the forums make it into a smiley, you can stick an empty BBCode tag between the two characters. Like we did! okay apparently the server which provides emoticons is dead ATM lol

Here is a possibly more efficient script for both rotating around a point, and setting a certain rotation around a point (so instead of point in direction 90, you can point in direction 90 with a different center)

Quick question
  • Are new workarounds going to be added soon, or going to be in the next workaround list?
