Why isn't there a "Previous costume" block?
It's great that we have a “Next costume” block to make our sprites change from one costume to another, all without use of too many “Change costumes” blocks, but a bad thing here is that there isn't a “Previous costume” block that makes you go back as many costumes as needed without too many “Change costumes” blocks. Maybe add those in the next update, please? Thanks!

you can easily get around it by doing:
                        
                            switch costume to ((costume [number v]) - (1))

switch costume to (join [previous costume] [])Not sure why this works, but, it does. LOL

I honestly don't know why Scratch does this, it's handy for loopholes though.
