What is this block used for?

wait until <>

Question by FoiMini321Expert

that block waits until a condition is met.

for example, say you want to have a button that does something but you don't want it to happen as soon as you press on the button.

then, you can do something like:

when this sprite clicked
wait until <not <mouse down?>>
. . .

It pauses the script until the condition is true. For example,

wait until <key [space v] pressed?>

waits until the space key is pressed.

Basically, it will wait to run the code connected below it until a condition is true, for example if a variable reaches or exceeds a certain value.

when green flag clicked
set [numbers v] to [0]
forever
change [numbers v] by (1)
end

when green flag clicked
say [Waiting until number is 100]
wait until <(number) = [100]>
stop [other scripts in sprite v]
say [The number is 100!]

Oh my god, don't remind me of the pain I had to suffer trying to explain that block to someone for 2 pages (I think you can find it through ocular LOL)
