Costume transition block

It would act like a animatoin but it would happen every time it was going to the next sprite
Example:
when green flag clicked
switch costume transition to [page flip v]
next costume
I would be simpler to new scratcher + scratchers projects if they can’t animate.
It would also make sense to add this for this to have remove transition to remove transitions if you need it

I don't know how that would work. It would either use ai for the transition or use some ghost effect. Either way, think about it from the perspective of the scratch team. It would discourage actually making animations. But you may need to clarify, I see bad grammar (no offense).

What I mean is like in a book project, making animations for every page is going to get new scratchers bored of doing the tedious work to make it. But if the costume transition block gets added it may encourage others to let people know about scratch and make more creations from being inspired by the blocks themselves rather than the other people, I’m not discouraging remixes but saying that stories and animations could be upgraded with this

Well you have a point, but they could use it to be lazy at animation. Hard work pays off.

What I’m thinking is for people who are literally just hearing of scratch now and they are making a project you would ether not make animations at all or quit trying even if they were on there for hours because most people don’t know how to animate good so it just is a mess
