Colorblind color scheme?
Which ones? I find them all OK.The problem with that is that it hurts your eyes if you aren't colorblind. Here's one that uses brightness more than the current ones, combined with NitroCipher's flat style idea for 3.0 (current on the left):
I think this should be OK but are variables and events too similar here? Maybe I should make variables closer to lists since they're in the same category.
It would be good if some people with other forms of colourblindness saw this. Does anyone here happen to know anyone else who has it?

I'm sure a color blind option could be put somewhere? Though I don't usually follow by color
I think instead of memorizing by color, your weak point, do it by the words.

I don't like bright colours; my right eye is too prone to them XD

Too late, I've been working with Scratch for a long time and I still go by color. Also, the blocks in the project (e.g. move 10 steps then change effect) look identical which confuses me. instead of memorizing by color, your weak point, do it by the words.

You can always try and do it.
Though I'm still supporting a color blind version… (may or may not want to use it just because it looks different)

I am already in the habit of going by color and when debugging scripts, color is the quickest way of determining the block type. It's too late to change my habit because I've been in it for years. A colorblindness support feature would save me collective days of time. -snipped quote-

Not perfect, but this may help you have more distinction:
The below is a screenshot of the converted colors into what the OP might see.
I did create a scratch color file that uses the colors shown above.
To use the below color file create a text file and paste the below code into it. Rename the file to newcolors.colors
Here is the generated scratchblocks:

Very good color scheme; however, I still won't be able to use it unless color scheme changes save for accounts instead of just for that editing session.

I suppose you could write the color out, but how would you separate it better?

No support. There are words next to block sections.

I'm going to take back what I said earlier about learning it by ‘words’. It's unrealistic to think about it that way since most IDE's themselves do indeed have colored text to help with finding stuff.

Support! I'd like this if it was an option that could be turned on and off.
