How to make 'hacked' blocks!
Hacked blocks aren't hard to make! You just need to know how to do it! In this tutorial i will be telling you how to create your own hacked blocks!
Step 1: Create a new project and put the block ‘broadcast’ and ‘13 + 12’ in the project!
Step 2: Download the project to your own computer BUT don't save it as a ‘.sb2’ file save it as a ‘.zip’ file!
Step 3: Extract the ZIP file to your desktop (this is for ease of access)
Step 4: Open the EXTRACTED zip file and locate the file ‘project.json’
This is where it gets a little be hard
Step 5: Open ‘project.json’ in a text editor
Step 6: Locate the line with the word ‘broadcast’ in it!
Step 7: replace the whole text “message1” (INCLUDING THE SPEECH MARKS!!!) with (“+”, “13”, “12”) (replace ( with [)
Step 8: Save the file
Step 9: Open the zip (the one that is not extracted) with another explorer window
Step 10: Copy and replace the NON-EDITED project.json (inside the zip file) with the EDITED project.json
Step 11: Rename the zip file BACK to a .sb2 file so scratch can open it!
Step 12: Upload the project to scratch!
Step 13: You will now have broadcast 13+12 block!
If you try to make this block without doing this method then you will fail as add cant be put into broadcast!
Step 14: Tell your friends about this post and have loads of fun making crazy blocks that are impossible, or so you thought

How to make 'hacked' blocks!
Sorry, your guide does not work!
The working way is:
Download as .sb2
Rename to .zip
Extract it.
Change the code.
Archive the extracted zip.
Rename back to .sb2
