Never Use Variables Again
I Dont know if many people realise but because of the list system, you never actually need to use variables, let say for kills it would be:
Every time you killed some thing: Replace Item [X] With Item [X + 1]

Some people find variables easier though. It's the same as saying that you don't need to use the glide to x: y: block because you can get around it with the other blocks, but it's harder.

Re: Never Use Variables Again
Yeah, variables are easier. I actually don't use lists, I don't know why, Ijust never really need them. They have their use, I just haven't needed it yet.

Re: Never Use Variables Again
Lists actually are good for making programming languages though. Instead of RECALL HEALTH; SET SPEED TO 3; you can have RECALL 1; SET 2 TO 3; and make it easier to implement.

I have only used them in one of my projects. I just think that the variables are easier to use.
