Re: The new block to freeze time
You could instead save information as variables and stop scripts when a certain thing happens. For instance, this could be incorporated into scripts:
when [pause sprite v] clicked broadcast [save v] and wait wait until <(Saved?) = [yes]> stop allBecause this can be done, a block could instead be created to pause scripts using Scratch 2.0.

Re: The new block to freeze time
My idea: Freeze block freezes everything, but there is an "When game frozen" block, which is only frozen if the game is unfrozen. This would be good for creating a pause screen and unpause buttons.

That is what he'd have to do OTHERWISE.

Re: The new block to freeze time
I support, but maybe in the form of a pause button (with the go and stop icons at the top right of the stage like in byob) and a script to activate it so that it can be done automatically.

You have a giant project that needs some one at the computer at all time. It takes FOREVER to complete the game. What does it need? A pause function! In Scratch the bigger the project the harder it is to make a pause. But the bigger the project the more it needs a pause. And if you have any repeats it imposable to pause without delay.
To make the your project pause (with buttons) easier Scratch 2.0 needs a new block.

Great idea! I like it though a pause button would be a better idea I think.
In Scratch 2.0 their will be a stop [] button so you can stop a script or all scripts or the whole game. Maybe a
stop [all] for () secs
would be better. It could pause the game for a certain number of seconds and you could stop the script, all the scripts or the whole game.

Re: The new block to freeze time
Make it pause all scripts like that, but with a pause button outside the project window but on the player. That would allow you to stop any project you like and start it again.
But then again it would start again out of sync with sounds and waits and stuff. Bad idea. (Mine is, not yours)

It's 'bolding' because you didn't put [blocks] before you start and [/blocks] at the end of the blocks. Almost everyone forgets that.
Dude, it's scratchblocks and /scratchblocks (in between [ and ])
