In the scratch editor, there is a more block(I'll call it a function since now.) section where you can make a function.
Functions are very useful when making big projects or projects where specific blocks of code are repeatedly appearing.
But when making a project where each sprite has the exact same function(s), it's really frustrating and time consuming when you have to
edit every single function of each sprite.
That's why I suggest to make a Global Function. This is a function that when created, can be used by every single sprite in the editor.
With Global Functions, you can edit one piece of code to change all the other pieces used in other sprites ASAP.

To create a Global Function, you just have to check the check-box under the “Run without screen refresh” check-box.

Finally, here's a project that would have taken less time and effort to make if there were Global Functions.
Look at the functions used at the sprites carefully

Hmmm, I think this would be a cool feature, but kind of unnecessary because you can just duplicate the functions over sprites.

But it's frustrating when you have to edit the functions after you duplicated it.

So, if the custom block is powered, all the sprites react to the block? Or if a custom block on a sprite is powered, the sprite where the def script is reacts to the block?

You can use broadcast blocks, but it doesn't look nice, and it doesn't look organized.

Support. In a project I am making about 50ish sprites share the same two custom blocks. I decided to make a change to the block to lessen the amount of glitches and I had to go though 50ish sprites just to change a few lines a code in a custom block.

The second topic is closed because of an older topic, but that's the one that is closed. Keep this topic.

lol, it's a circular duplicate closure!

like this question, those threads have important information
