Hello guys!
From now on, We need a pause button on Scratch

So, If you make a Scratch Project and you click the green flag, the project will start. The only option is just to press the stop sign button. If you want to continue, you need to start again from the beginning. If the pause button is added, you can continue the progress! So Scratch has only have green flag and stop sign buttons.

I Hope Pause Button will be added on Scratch 4.0!


Also, The Pause Button will be next to the Green Flag and the color is Amber.
The Pause Button should look like turbowarp pause button.

“Pause can be used to cheat in games.”
Just make it so nothing can be interacted with.

(Support btw)

The project owner could choose whether cloud variables are disabled if paused. If they are disabled, Scratch should display a confirmation before pausing for the first time in a session.

me on my topic wrote:

It would work the same way it does in Turbo warp, assisting for someone to take a break from viewing a long project, either so they don't miss anything or run out of time to finish a task inside it (ex: finish a level), and would go nicely with the new set thumbnail feature Scratch Team is adding soon.

Specifically about animations, most popular animations on Scratch (ex: Jailbreak) that are long don't have a pause button, so if the user has to go do something, they have to make the option to leave the project running and miss parts of the animation, or stop the project completely, to then bare watching it all over again.

I used quick search, and the pause button was never found on the list of rejected suggestions, so if it's supposed to be, that's on Za-Chary.
