Better idea! What about a block that if you want to make a sidescroller but cant make it auto move then what you can do is make a block that can do effects while changing the stage
next backdrop with effect [  Slide v]::looks

That could make it look like one but it isnt

please only put one suggestion per topic

Well That was me adding on to it!


only put one suggestion in ONE topic, make a separate topic for each suggestion
Well,that's an edit of a block,not a different block.

Another block [sprite in center boolean]

“And, Scratch doesn't always have to be super simple, and, for that matter, shouldn't be. For example, if you suggested a “physics” block, which made a sprite follow the laws of physics, this would probably be rejected. Why? It would certainly be useful! The problem is (beyond the difficulties in making such a block) that it makes Scratch too easy. It is kind of taking the “program” out of “Imagine, program, share”. We don't want to be able to make anything in five minutes; that ruins the point of programming, having fun, and putting effort into your projects”. - itchycatill

Ok I get how easy scratch would be! But this topic has kind of turned into an background change with effects so later I will start one.

But weren't physics blocks added as an extension to Scratch 3.0??

Ok, so the example in the sticky is no longer relevant. That doesn't mean the argument no longer holds water.

Please,think about the reasons why this block should not be added. (Super simple workaround). And don't start another topic suggesting this,or it will be reported for the duplicate matter.

I know. I'm just saying that the physics block won't be a good example anymore.

Yeah, someone should probably change the stickies.
