broadcasat blocks are where you broadcast something for example

so basically it is a way of talking to other sprites to say your turn now rather than having a wait block.

If you use a broadcast block, you can make other sprites/backdrops/scripts do something when they receive the broadcast.

Let's say this was our sprite's script:

And this script is for the backdrop or second sprite we want to receive the broadcast:

You can also make it so multiple sprites and the backdrop can receive the broadcast simultaneously.

Sprite 1:

Backdrop:

Sprite 2:

Hopefully that made sense.
