Make CTRL+Y redo blocks in the editor.

Currently you can use CTRL+Z to undo a change when editing the code of a sprite. However, CTRL+Y does not redo it, like you would expect, so you have to right click and click on “Redo”.

You can use CTRL + SHIFT + Z to redo.

Out of curiosity, is that a common keyboard shortcut? It might be more confusing than CTRL+Y.

CTRL+SHIFT+Z is honestly something I didn't expect so honestly it could just get copied over from that and make it an extra bind
(EDIT2: Which might not cost a lotta money however I'm not in position to conjecture)

I was actually confused about it on my namesnipe — I thought it was just a mistakening of CTRL+Z (like how Shift+Down gets mistakened for CTRL+SHIFT+DOWN) so I am in delight to see this, however I do have a big feeling that this was suggested somewhere.
EDIT: Also no thats not a common shortcut I have not seen that shortcut once in my life lol

Wait, since when does Control + Y have a use on the keyboard? I've never used it before.

Also, it's just one key. Why does it need to change? (By the way, you can just right click in the editor and click “Redo” to get a script back)

I do understand that some people might want to use it, though. Just because I've never used it doesn't mean that it shouldn't be added. Does this suggestion suggest keeping both, or replacing Ctrl Z with Ctrl Y?

It has had use in multiple programs as a hotkey of Redo.
