That Glow...

It's been brought to my attention that the glow around running scripts is one of the main culprits of lag in the scripts window… So… Shouldn't there be a less power-hungry visual cue? Anything, really, as long as it doesn't lag the whole town more than a bad sorting algorithm. Yes, I know you can just go to the costumes tab, but sometimes it's necessary to edit the scripts right as it runs.

maybe a yellow outline instead of a full out glow would be less laggier?

Hmm, maybe it could just outline the Header block. And you can obviously use clones to stop this, but who wants to do that xD

How about a yellow dot next to the first block of the script. Cheers!

If your script were really long and you were looking at the bottom of it…

Support, but I think the main problem is that if you have a long script visible, it renders the entire script and not just the part you can see, so that should be changed as well.

I think there was a suggestion a while back like this, but I can't be bothered to find it. Anyways, support for some way to reduce lag in the scripts section of a project.
