Clone types
Currently, we can only have one type of clone for each sprite. It would be nice if we could have different types of clones for sprites. Their names could also be customized
create clone type [type 1 v] of [myself v]:: control
when I start as a clone type [type 1 v]:: control hat
move () steps
when I start as a clone type [type 2 v]:: control hat
wait () secs

You can just do this with variables. You have to set it to “for this sprite only” It will then work independently, with different values for each clone.

It is also easy to do. Would just 30 extra seconds cost that long?but you only need to create one variable.You can just do this with variables.

Not intuitive though. I didn't know about that feature until around 2-3 years into my scratch programming.It is also easy to do.

I learned that in 3-4 months of programming. There is always “The List of Workarounds” waiting for youNot intuitive though.

I agree with that, but I don't think the answer is this, as it adds lots of block for an existing feature. Maybe the current way should be tweaked to make it more clear?Not intuitive though.

repeat (...)
create clone type [chargeshot v] of [myself v]:: control
end
when I start as a clone type [shot v]:: control hat
...
when I start as a clone type [half chargeshot v]:: control hat
...
when I start as a clone type [chargeshot v]:: control hat
...
For example the character could fire multiple charge shots at once.

No support, simple workaround.
If people are to be confused on what the workaround is, here are some scripts:
If people are to be confused on what the workaround is, here are some scripts:
set [var v] to [0]Note that for every clone type you need one “if-then” Blocks.
repeat (3)
create clone of [myself v]
change [var v] by (1)
end
when I start as a clone
if <(var) = [...]> then
...
end

To add to this, it doesn't take that long to make one, one variable.But with my suggestion, it can save variables.No? You only need one variable.
