Every _ secs Block
This would be very convenient for certain kinds of projects. Post your opinion. Please say yes or no, and why. No maybe yes's or I don't knows or something like that. For example, every 5 seconds you could switch to a random costume. You could just use a repeat until block, but that always makes it more complicated!

Re: Every _ secs Block
Honestly you really could use a repeat block. It makes it only a little additional lag, so this is not very helpful in my opinion. Just my opinion...

Re: Every _ secs Block
I agree with Lucario... just do what he says or use a forever:
forever
what you want it to do
what you want it to do
what you want it to do
end_forever

Does it every 2 seconds.
Oops, forgot the wait block in my rush.

Re: Every _ secs Block
You could use repeat, and put 'wait __ seconds' and then the action that you want to happen every couple of seconds.
