New Block Suggjestion

I think scratch needs one or more new blocks  but the one i feel is most nessesary is a when block basicly when i recieve just without the i recieve. what this block does is
(example) when touching...
              say...for...secs
              hide
             stop all
hope you like the block

Could you please explain?
You could just do "If touching.... do rest of script" or "Wait until touching... do rest of script"
And an "i receive block without the i receive" would just be an empty block, can you explain clearer?

mopper2 means a block like this: http://www.makeagif.com/media/8-17-2010/EJFZL4.gif, so, its like the "when I receive []" block, but instead, it starts the script when the sensor is true.

Oh, so a hat block that is activated when the boolean inside it is true? That actually sounds like a really good idea.  big_smile

Re: New Block Suggjestion

Wow! That's a great idea  smile  I certainly support. In fact, if we also get a boolean <I receive> block, it could also mean that we'd no longer neat the "When I receive" hat block. This is by far one of the best block suggestions I've ever seen.
