The forever if block hasn't left us.. Should the ST remove this?
I believe I did not say that…. (gah, I just messed up the whole quote chain. Yaaaay.)Most likely because, you see, Why was the forever if block removed?
1:as you can see here, you could just do this:forever
if <> then
end
end
2: It's better because: it only repeats IF something is happening, like:when green flag clicked
forever
if <[(BowserDeath)] = [ yes]> then
play sound [BowserDeath v]
hide
end
end
And ps:forever
YOU ARE AWESOME!!!!
end

CRAZY
Heyo! I am Jade (she/her) and I used to be very active on the scratch discussion forums back in 2017. I've since left scratch to pursue an interest in game development, graphics and engine programming, and college.

I honestly don't understand what the fuss is about.
The official and best workaround for the foreverif block is
The official and best workaround for the foreverif block is
foreverScratchblocks has not removed foreverif because
if <criteria :: operators> then
// do stuff
end
end
- it remains useful for Scratchers using 1.4
- it doesn't hurt anyone to still have it around. (it's not using a huge amount of server space, etc. to maintain support for one block.)

You can simply just put the "if' block inside the forever block
Sadly, my kumquats were eaten by an evil forum signature.

OR, this though it isn't as good:
repeat until <not <>>// Just put the condition in the not
//and code here
end

Nothing Is EVER 100%, that is just an assumption.
Some important links: Here and here or need help click Here. Eats followers, Loves helping people.
My “..” and “…” are not spelling mistakes, it means that they are ways of telling someone that I can continue more about it and that the sentence isn't ended the best way. I like putting new indents and lines so I can split up what I am talking about.

That's not “not as good”. It isn't a workaround at all. OR, this though it isn't as good:repeat until <not <>>// Just put the condition in the not
//and code here
end
Actually it is though it is not as reliable.
Yes this is still better, I know:
forever
if <> then
end
end

This signature is inside the stomach of Timmy the kumquat. If you can see it, then you are in there too.

(Swallowed by an evil kumquat who was just taking a walk in the neighborhood of evil kumquats when they saw a garage sale where they bought a plate which they used to eat but they discovered that it leaked and they went to get their money back but the sale was over so they went in the house but the door was locked so they got their key but it didn't fit so they went home to use the key on the right door which was their own door and then they decided to swallow a signature for no reason.)
