Sprites in Sprite Library With Pre-Made Code in Them

You can just delete those scripts then. Takes barely any clicks.

I was thinking you could have, like, a custom block library? Where you would, maybe, put your custom block there so everybody could use it.

why???
Because, sometimes you may want a specific sprite without any scripts.

tbh id be surprised if this isnt a dupe

What i'm suggesting is that some (or even all possibly??) sprites in the sprite library should have at least one script already in them, possibly with some notes explaining what they do. Of course, all scripts would remain relatively simple so that anything more complex can be made by users.

For example, the Cat sprite seems like it's obviously meant to be a walking animation, so it could have something like this.

when green flag clicked
repeat (10)

switch costume to [costume-a v]
move (10) steps
switch costume to [costume-b v]
move (10) steps
end

Scratch has always meant to be an in-between of letting people be creative by making things by themself and doing things for them, so that way people can be assisted in their creating but its still theres.
I also think this suggestion embraces remix culture, as it will teach those who aren't familiar with the blocks how they work by showing them what they do.
That would be a neat idea, but it's not really necessary. Nice idea though.

I have a feeling this used to be in Scratch 1.4, like, I vaguely remember this. I don't know if I ever did the right thing to get it to work, but I see how this could be helpful for those who are looking for more examples.
I remember using the Scratch 1.4 offline editor once after I read about some cool thing it could do, I definitely remember it being there, one of them being the clock hand sprite. I think it did have a separate scriptless version, so I think that's what they should go with if they choose to reimplement this feature.

You can just share your custom blocks with others via projects. Regardless, that sounds like an unrelated suggestion.

No Support. If we add code default then how will New Scratchers learn how to code?

They could learn from the code in the sprite, so..
Also, it doesn't have to be griffpatch level, when this was a thing one of the pre-made code was as simple as this:
when [space v] key pressed
next costume

They might and just add
turn cw (7) degrees

that would be a spinning changing cat project but they have learnt nothing

There should be a toggle, “Include Template Code” at the top of the list. This could get annoying, the same way as “my variable”. But I support this, as beginners could learn from it.
