Everything inside the c-block would run in Turbo Mode, but other than that, the project would run normally. So if you had:

move [10] steps
--------------------------|
|   run in Turbo Mode |
|      --------------------|
|      |
|       go to x: [0] y: [0] 
|      --------------------|
|                               |
|__________________|
move [5] steps

It would move ten steps in normal mode, go to x: 0 y: 0 in Turbo Mode, and then move five steps in normal mode again.

Because it's not possible to make custom c-blocks.

And thanks.

Re: Turbo Mode blocks

What would turbo mode do? Make it run faster (if so, I support).

ALSO : It is in the BYOB mod

Goodbye, Scratch. I am leaving because of the exams coming up at our school, though I'll check the forums once or twice a week.

Well?

Great idea! I'll add that those blocks the original post. Do you support?

Yeah! I support, this will be much easier than the current, extremely complicated method that I use. But never have.

Maybe a good block to add would be:

 run in turbo mode until [    ]
do something
end 

Thanks for supporting!

That would be easily replicated like this though:

Turbo Mode on
repeat until <something happens>
do something
end
Turbo Mode off

I HAVE SUGGESTION:

run in turbo mode for [    ] secs

I suggest that there be four new blocks; "Turbo Mode on", "Turbo Mode off", "Turbo Mode is on/off" and a c-block, "run in Turbo Mode".

I'm currently making a game which requires Turbo Mode for the colour sensor to work properly, but with Turbo Mode, you can't have any effect blocks, as they all run too quickly. These blocks would solve that problem.

Here's what they'd look like:

Turbo Mode on
Turbo Mode off
<Turbo Mode is [on v]?>
And a c-block which I can't make  tongue

To support, simply post "I support", or something along those lines.

EDIT; I'm no longer updating the supporters list, it's correct as of 29th March 2012. Still give your opinion on the ideas, though.

I like the idea! but is the third one necessary? you could just program scratch to do it... here is an idea of the third one... http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/SFollis/2613149

I like the idea because you always have to write "please use turbo mode" in the notes...
