I want to see if I understand.

So, if you run this script:

give away all my animals :: custom
finish unless <(giraffes) = (5) :: operators boolean> {
set [zebras v] to (5)
set [giraffes v] to (5)
set [chimpanzees v] to (5)
} :: control
set [dogs v] to (101)

am I correct in understanding that it will stop after you get 5 giraffes, and you will never get the 5 chimps?

yes, and then it would go to the 101 dogs, but also if music was playing it would stop it or if it was saying something it would stop like maybe it would be like this hi how or you doi-

minecraft creepers be like:

forever
stop [this house from existing v]
end

so it stops the script whenever a certain condition = true.

Do you think you've been banned unfairly? Then you'd be wrong. The ST aren't children, so quit acting like they are.

so it does a skip.
why not

Skip when <> {

} :: control

?

Are you asking to break a loop, like in Swift?
I have no idea what you're talking about.

What is this?
“Finish the script until something is true”? Like

...
...
...
...
...
...
...
...
Oh no something is true so now this script won't continue
...
...
...
...

that?
Are you suggesting

stop [this script v] :: stack // this?

So basically a “stop this script” block but it's a stack block?
If you were to stop a script at a specific time that you already know, then why not use the original block?
Or are you suggesting basically just this?

repeat until <>

end

no, 2 things FOR THE 100TH TIME IT IS NOT A LOOP and the stuff this scripte wont let it countinue the thing under like it would in a if blank than, were if it is done then it will do the ones under

if i were to use the workaround that fdreerf gave, it would be:

if <(giraffes) = (5) :: operators boolean> then 
stop [this script v]
  

else
set [zebras v] to (5)
set [giraffes v] to (5)
set [chimpanzees v] to (5)
end

So you want this:

forever
if <not<>> then
stop [this script v]
end
end

Basically, you want to stop everything if something is false, aka “not true”

Oh, and did you know the color of this line of text is called skyblue?

I *love* formating!

The ST are evil dictators that harvest waffles from the users of Scratch.

And, how did you see this part? Ctrl-Shift-Down? Probably.

TheDreamyProfessor

so like this?

finish this script until ::control
this is a loop ok? I don't get this plugin.::grey
end::cont

But that doesn't make sense, because it's basically

ztop [all]::control <--stack block
if <stuff> then
stuff
[scratchblocks]
(wot is wrong with the plugin?)
 Anyway, so basically your asking scratch to perform a script EVEN when the script in particular is already finished. Coding doesn't work like that man.

I think you should add an example for the script.
Maybe something like this:

set [var 1 v] to [foo]
finish unless <(var 2) = [stop] :: operators> {
set [var 2 v] to [stop]
set [var 1 v] to [bar]
} :: control

(var 1) // foo

Also, there is a workaround, but it's stupid.

. . .
if <. . .> then
stop [this script v]
end
. . .
if <. . .> then
stop [this script v]
end
. . .
if <. . .> then
stop [this script v]
end
. . .
