Or save () as cookie block?

That would be a sweet idea !!

Then instead of starting a game again, you can just load it from the cookie. 

We need a block like this one: <I recieve[ ]>

that would be perfect, a lot of times I think in my head of using that like it does exist.

WHEN <stop all> pressed

<stop all>
should STOP ALL scripts. That's why it is called "Stop ALL"

What will [save () as cookie do] ?

This time I am going to suggest some possible new stuff for LAYERS.
I think there should be some sort of giant list of the sprites in order of layer or something like that. one of the things you should have is a (layer #) block, a [go to layer |(front, back)|], and one of the main issues though is which would be 1, front or back? (also, you can enter a number or a numeric variable instead of one of the options)

Some ideas:

-(Pause sound [sound])
-Being able to detect a sound's pitch
-[blocks]<forever if>
<else>
<end>[/blocks]

1: A variable type block that calls up the system time.
2: Boolean Switches
3: Some way to save your progress (like a cookie).

some of you wanted a point to x y block, well, if the scratch team wasn't too lazy to type ('point towards x: %n y: %n' #- #pointToX:y: 0 0) you would have one. So I'm guessing you aren't that lazy so here is how you get one.

open the 1.2.1 source code
open a browser
Scratch-Objects > Scratch sprite morph > class > scratch > blockspecs
scroll down to motion
new line (enter)
type: ('point towards x: %n y: %n' #- #pointToX:y: 0 0)
alt-s
confirm
save as...
open in 1.3
and it works.

or hack 1.3 and insert it right in there...

If touching x y not so easy...

You could make a 1x1 sprite, set it's ghost effect to 100, move it to the desired X and Y, and then use

[blocks] <if><touching[ sprite [/blocks].

yes, but that defeats the point of the block...

Maybe, but you could do it like that meanwhile we don't have the block.

i would want a block that pauses your sound

Make a sprite, move it to this X , Y, and say
if touching [sprite]

how about a <I recieve> block?

when flag clicked
set [ received? ]  to 0

when i receive [ broadcast]
set [ received ] to 1
wait [ 0.1 ] secs
set [ received ] to 0

< I receive > = < [ received ] = [ 1 ] ? >

how about <if> i recieve __
<end> [/blocks]

read above

thats works. but it'd be much simpler with the <when i recive> block

How about "whisper [ ]". It would be like broadcast but it would only go to other scripts on the same sprite.

When MarkyIsCool posted that, 1.3 had just been released. And 1.5 isn't out yet.
