I made a hacked block for key presses, but I don't know what the key code for LShift and LCtrl are, so I was wondering if anyone know what they are. Thanks

It should be this character right here: It is probably corrupted by putting it on the forms though. Most special characters are the same, ASCII 128. See this project by @griffpatch which can detect it and has ALL the key codes in list ASCII. Also note that last I checked, Scratch 3.0 can't detect shift by itself.

Thanks, and welp I wonder what I'll do in 3.0

You'll be able to detect keys like !@#$%^&*(){}|:"<>? just not capital letters. Unless they make the key pressed block(which doesn't need hacking anymore) case sensitive somehow…

To work around this even in 2.0 some projects allow the user to use a ask block for more advanced strings.
