That's… costume, not layer? Not sure you understood the suggestion.

Also, trying to use variables as a workaround for the layer problem is incredibly complicated and doesn't really work. This is because, while two variables can be equal, two things can't be in the same layer in scratch. variables also can't take the backdrop, clones, or pen into account. local variables (variables for only this sprite) don't work to fix the clone situation, because the other sprites can't see the local variables. Even assuming you need no clones or pen, setting up a variable comparison system gets exponentially more complicated for every new sprite you create, so for projects with 6 or 7 sprites, it's crazy complicated to try to make a workaround. Imagine how crazy it would be for a project with 20 sprites, like a MAP or game!

when green flag clicked
set [ORDER v] to [1]
broadcast [Order sprites v]

when I receive [Order sprites v]
say (ORDER)
change [ORDER v] by (1)

define Go to layer(layer)
go to [back] layer
go forward ((layer) - (1)) layers

set layer to ()

Oh this is a great idea! Don't know why it hasn't been implemented, it seems so simple and obviously helpful.

Some questions though: say I have Sprite A on Layer 2, and then I send Sprite B to Layer 2 using the new block. Would Sprite B “push out” Sprite A to Layer 3? So basically shift all sprites in layers 2, 3, 4, etc. by one layer to the front?

Also what if there are only, say, 3 sprites, and I try sending one to Layer 10? Would it not do anything, or just send the sprite to the highest layer available (3)?

forward of [Sprite1 v] ? :: boolean sensing

Support! People have already mentioned why and it's soo easy to use. Probably also add a forward block

forward of [Sprite1 v] ? :: boolean sensing 

forever
go to front
set [ghost v] effect to (0)
go to x: (0) y: (0)
end
