HUGE IMPORTANT BUG!!!!!!

This bug is very important for advanced programming (specifically programming with “more blocks”) The bug makes any Boolean values (embedded in the block) inside the define script report false. This is a function that is key to making the “more blocks” more interactive and efficient and the bug really hinders it. It can be seen here: http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/13734163/. Please bump this a lot so it stays on the front of of the “Bugs and Glitches” forums, and, if you are a member of the scratch team, please take note of this bug to fix it, it is very important.

Not a bug, simply a misunderstanding of what gets sent into a custom block.

See my comment on the project you linked to.

Also, see the following topics, which covered exactly the same ground:

It's great you are concerned excited about what you feel may be an important glitch! However, it's still better to provide details about the bug in the subject, rather than just the severity. A better title would be: boolean values incorrectly false when creating own block, or something like that.

Well the misunderstanding is still a problem, it limits the use of the “more blocks”.

Sorry. I'm a bit new to the forums. What's important is that the bug is an issue. I'm making a Real Time Strategy game that uses custom blocks to decrease lag (there's a lot of script in the AI), and the Booleans aren't really doing what they should be doing. I'm glad you saw this, you are one of the people I was hoping to see this. Also, is there a way to change the title? I realized my error a bit after I posted it.
