“Broadcast (msg)” will send the broadcast and go on with the code. “Broadcast (msg) and wait” will only continue with the code once the code under the “when I receive (msg)” block is completely finished.

“broadcast and wait” broadcasts a message, then waits until everything receiving it has finished running it's script
“broadcast” just broadcasts the message then immediately moves on.

also just do you know, I don't yet have scratcher status yet, so the thing in my signature isn't true yet
please don't spam lol (unrelated post) there's also another one: derail (drive one topic to another). your topic is a spam since it isn't related to the topic.

Forum tips:
Don't post in topics where the latest post is over ~2 months old, unless you have something critical to add. Especially in topics that are several years old- it isn't helpful, and is known as necroposting.
Don't post unrelated things in topics, including questions of your own. Make a new topic for your questions.
