I was thinking maybe we could have a switch block:

switch()
    case()
        do this
    case()
        do this
    case()
        do this
    default
        do this

it would look like an if/else block, but there's a little + in the bottom-left corner to add a case.

if <> then
else
end

Speaking of if/else, maybe we could have an if/else if/else

What? Could you make your SBs better, see this for help, but anyways I would like more explaination!

No support.

has been suggested here.

*confused* No support even if it was explained to me clearly.

Here's a more clear version:

switch( v)::control cstart
    case[]::control cstart
        do this
    end
    case[]::control cstart
        do this
    end
    case[]::control cstart
        do this
    end
    default::control cstart
        do this
    end
end

so if you have this:

when green flag clicked
ask [What's your favorite color?] and wait
set [color v] to (answer)

Instead of doing this:

if <(color) = [green]> then
    say [I like green too.] for (2) secs
else
    if <(color) = [red]> then
        say [Red is pretty good.] for (2) secs
    else
        if <(color) = [blue]> then
            say [Blue is cool.] for (2) secs
        else
            say [I don't know that color.] for (2) secs
        end
end

You can do this:

switch[X v]::control cstart
    case[green]::control cstart
        say [I like green too.] for (2) secs
    end
    case[red]::control cstart
        say [Red is pretty good.] for (2) secs
    end
    case[blue]::control cstart
        say [Blue is cool.] for (2) secs
    end
    default::control cstart
        say [I don't know that color.] for (2) secs
    end
end

Actually, now that I think about it, support.

The wording of “switch” and “case” would be way to confusing to people new to programming.

Yeah. We need better terminology.

No support… Easy to use workarounds, this will make it harder…

Switching my stance to no support as per this.

    end
    default::control cstart
        say [I don't know that color.] for (2) secs
    end
end

Sorry but here is a workaround:

when green flag clicked
ask [What is your favorite color?] and wait
set [color v] to (answer)


when green flag clicked
forever
    
if <(answer) = [Blue ]> then
    //And so on!
end

end

And the if/else in an if/else would be this:

if <> then
    
else
if <> then
    
else

end

end

Unless you mean this.

So no support!

@RP-Fluffy the OP literally said the workaround that you mentioned is not the same.

What? I meant like this:

when green flag clicked
forever
    
if <[] = [ ]> then
    
end
if <[] = [ ]> then
    
end
if <[] = [ ]> then
    
end

end
