Cloud variables are already implemented, they just aren't turned on at the moment.

We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them.

The “restart project” block has an easy workaround. Just make each script start with a broadcast (instead of green flag) and broadcast that to restart the project.
The open url block is a bad idea (and it would be %s), because what if you entered an inappropriate site in there, or made it open 500 sites?

Let's try and keep it to one suggestion per forum topic so that each idea gets a real in-depth discussion, okay?

We love to hear your thoughts for new things - but we want to encourage people to think things through fully too

This is my forum signature! On a forum post, it is okay for Scratchers to advertise in their forum signature. The signature is the stuff that shows up below the horizontal line on the post. It will show up on every post I make.
