A stop timer block.

Can you add this to the drop-down menu of the stop block?

A stop timer block.

Hmm…while this would be handy, it's workaroundable depending on the situation. For example, if you just want to save the value of the timer, you could put it in a variable:

setstopped timertotimer

Other blocks (like “when timer is greater than”) are a little more complicated to workaround but totally doable too.

BTW, just a quick thought to consider with this suggestion – should there be a way to resume the timer? If so, I wonder if that would fit nicely into the existing “reset timer” block – I'd just change the “reset” to an input dropdown:

That is a good idea…

What about adding more timers at once? Maybe like:
