This is what I really want: switches

The blocks that I would want:
{X On}
{X Off}
=Once X switch activated=
=Once X switch deactivated=

Example:

=Once switch light activated= =Once flag clicked=
^ switch to backdrop 2 ^ /Forever:\
^ broadcast dark ^ /If\ {Light on}
| Show
/Else\
Hide

== = start
^^ = block
{} = the thing that you put the if thing in…
/\ = input, Like if or forever



It would seem less redundant than using a variable… and not taking up as much space in the list to.


/If\ {Idea=true} Costumes:
^broadcast happy^ 1:
^Switch To costume 2^ 2:

this can be achieved with variables easily.

forever
if <(switch) = “true”>
do stuff
else
do other stuff
end
end

Or:

When GF clicked
forever
if (condition)
set X to 1
else
set X to 0

When GF clicked
Forever
if X=1
Do something
if X=2
Do something else

I do not support because variables can easily be used, and we want kids to learn about variables as it may help with math.

Exactly. The switches you're suggesting already exist through variables.

Support!

when green flag clicked
if <(sonic) = (awesome)> then
 say [Sonic is awesome] for [forever] secs
else
 say [Sonic is awesome] for [forever] secs
end

Did you even notice the other posts?

No support, because the workaround is painfully obvious.

I know about the workaround. But sometimes I wish there was an easier way. It would make life a little easier and it might stop a little bit of lag.

if <(sonic) = (awesome)> then
 say [Sonic is awesome] for [forever] secs
else
 say [Sonic is awesome] for [forever] secs
end
