Start/Stop Timer Block.

wayyyy

[stop v] timer ::sensing

[start v] timer ::sensing

Right now, you can't stop the timer, you can only reset it, so I'd like to introduce these new blocks to stop the timer and start it.

It can be used to figure out how much a key was pressed for example.

when green flag clicked
[stop v] timer ::sensing
wait until <key [space v] pressed?>
[start v] timer ::sensing
wait until <not <key [space v] pressed?>>
[stop v] timer ::sensing
say (join (join [You pressed the space bar down for ] (timer)) [ seconds.])

*The timer still starts automatically so you would have to stop it first.

It you would like to see this please Support.

Pretty sure that it's a duplicate of a suggestion here.

Never saw that one before. D:

But it's pretty vague still.

There's a workaround…

forever
if <(pause) = [0]>
change [timer v] by [0.01]
wait (0.01) secs
end
end

There's a slight delay when using scratch blocks so it's not really good and it's not very useful because it's not doing anything.

But still a duplicate. Start/Stop timer block was the topic as well.

Be quiet, you're starting a flame war.
