Previous Costume blocks

ErolTheDestroyer

Hello there, fellow Scratchers. I am here about my channel becoming a meme channel Previous Costume blocks, something i have wanted for a long amount of time. It is easy to make a custom previous costume block, but many scratchers do/did not understand that (including me in the past) and I feel as if they should be made an official block.

Here is how to create a custom block for previous costume

define Previous Costume
((costume #) - (1))

switch costume to [ v]

I'm pretty sure it's been added in 3.0

No support, due to it's really easy workaround.
Also, this is a duplicate of a duplicate of a duplicate of this.

It appears that it was not added in 3.0 (as of now), but the workaround is still simple enough.

I believe

switch costume to [previous costume v]

also works

You just need to make a costume named “previous costume,” set the block to it, then delete the costume. You can then backpack the block for future

Honestly, I'd just like the next costume block replaced with this:

[next v] costume :: looks // next, previous, first, last, and random are all options

That's what we need.

next costume//next

switch costume to[previous costume v]//previous, will not work if there is a costume named "previous costume"

switch costume to[1 v]//first, will not work if there is a costume named "1"

switch costume to[0 v]//last, will not work if there is a costume named "0"

switch costume to[0 v]//random, will not work if there is a costume whose name is a number
switch costume to(pick random(1)to(costume #))//between 0 and the number of costumes

I know about all of those workarounds.

A single block would be much more convenient, though, especially for people who don't.

Very few suggested reporters are workaroundable.
Almost all stack blocks are.

I know. I tried but the ‘costume #’ block doesn't exit in 3.0

what do I do?

I also tried:

define Previous costume
costume number - 1

It does. See the first example on the page.
