The block would look like this:

(() % chance of () else () )

Basically, this block would have certain percent chance of returning a value, and if it doesn't return that value, return something else. This could help in a lot of ways, since right now Scratch only has a pick random () to () block.

I made this block in TurboWarp and it works!

does it work for decimals?

No, it only works with integers.

If you are referring to the pick random block, that works with decimals too.

Wait, why? Unless I'm misunderstanding the block's function, it seems like this could work with decimals.

It picks random from 1 - 100, so it doesn't pick any decimals.

here is the block:

You have to use a decimal point or a decimal number, like this:

(pick random (1.) to (10)

Then it will generate decimals:

Oh thanks

define return ()
set [return v] to (::custom-arg) // not necessary, just because I prefer a return function
define (percent)% chance of (option1) else (option2)
if <((percent) mod (1)) = (0)> then
if <not <(pick random (1) to (100)) > (percent)>> then // if not > is same as less than or equal to.
return (option1)
else
return (option2)
end
else
set [return v] to ((length of ((round(((percent) mod (1)) * (1000000))) / (1000000))) - (2
if  <not <(pick random (1) to ([10 ^ v] of ((return) + (2)))) > ((percent) * ([10 ^ v] of (return)))>> then
return (option1)
else
return (option2)
end

the return block isn't necessary, it just helps me understand the block better :P, the bottom part is solely for decimals. Shift + right arrow to see the entire script. You can increase the 100… * and / as it only allows for 6 decimals, but do you really need a percent like this: 19.38502385% …
