What exactly is the difference between the if-else system we already have?

Otherwise If
What exactly is the difference between the if-else system we already have?Well, first, it tests the first if <>. If its true, it ignores all the other if else's. If the first <> is false, then it tests the first else ifs <>. If its true, it ignores all the other else ifs but if its false, it goes to the next else if. This keeps repeating until either one of the else ifs are true or it hits the else statement. I hope I answered your question!

Otherwise If
Workaround:
if <condition :: operators> then
//Your blocks here
else
if <condition :: operators> then
//Your blocks here
end
end
//Note: Don't put any blocks after the if block in the else

Also:1. ELSE IF, not OTHERWISE IFif <> thenYou can keep on you post:
else if <> then :: celse // do do that use ":: celse"else if <> then :: cstart control
end
EDIT: IF this was in 1.4 then There COULD be another block:
forever if <>
else if <>:: celse
end
:2.
define <1><2>
forever if<1> //Shorter, you can add this block
else if<2>::celse
end
define <1><2>
forever //This block I don't want to do
if <1>
else
if <2>
end
end

Just do this:if <> then
else
if <> then
else
if <> then
else
end
end

Otherwise If
Support, because elseif exists (in other programming languages) for a reason. If it weren't a big deal nesting then elseif wouldn't exist, though I guess some ppl don't mind. I personally will go nuts if there are too many if/else. I guess it varies from person to person.

:The forever if workaround is easy, it's this (surprisingly!):
if <> then
forever
end
end
But for the if and constant else, sure!
Maybe you could right click the else part and it would say “add else” and then it would add another else?

:foreverand that is why it was removed - no-one could remember which way round it was.

:Actually think about it, it would go on forever if this happened, so actually:
if <> then
forever
