When I was playing around Scratch 2.0, I found out that the “forever if” block is missing.
Is this a glitch, or did they remove it?

It was removed because it was a redundant block. You can put an if inside a forever statement and accomplish the same thing.

Oh.

Strongly support adding it back (see http://scratch.mit.edu/discuss/topic/20438/?page=1#post-252213)

I hope that the “forever if” block is added back. It used to be such a efficient to accomplish things. Now you need to over-complicate it.

Note to Scratch Team - Please add it back in Scratch 3.0!

Please don't necropost on old topics.

And I don't think this is complicated

forever
if <> then

end
end

compared to

forever if <> ::control

end

If you'd like a change, you can propose it in the Suggestions forum. That said, it was removed because it was redundant and trivial to replicate - I doubt we'll add it back.
