To break out of C's.
Like this: Or maybe just

Useful for when you have a bunch of C blocks in one script, and can't use stop script.

This idea is a little obsolete, look here for the improved one.

EDIT: roijac put this on Scratch Suggestions! Vote here!
EDIT2: I just got this link, which is the "break" feature in other programming languages! Check it out if you don't understand what I want. wink

That's a good idea. I often use something similar in Visual Basic.

Couldn't you just use the [repeat until < >] block? hmm

Sometimes, but not always.
I think you should actually be able to choose how many C's to break out of, 'cause if it is in a solitary if, it would just break that if.

You know, that actually does sound quite nice. But you made a good point about choosing how many "Cs" to break out of, because it would probably be in an "if" block to work, and that would just complete the point of it all. smile But then it might get rather confusing... Ah, well, it is a nice block. tongue

[Repeat until < >] finishes the loop first. I admit there would be some situations where an immediate break would be more useful.

I think it's agreed we need something a little more advance than just plain
So maybe or
Maybe even both combined!
What do you think now?

That last one should have been a stack block instead of cap block. I'm too lazy to upload another pic.

And: bump!

I support! This would make a great addition to scratch.

I support your latest suggestion, not the first one. I think it's more complete big_smile
Anyways yeah, a great idea!

Do you like them?

I don't understand, break?

remind me what a c block is

I can see this as really helpful... I support! big_smile

The break out of () c blocks... I don't see the point, there is no text-based language equivalent, you get breaks and switches, the two tend to go hand in hand, but if you're a good coder, then you don't need multiple break blocks, you sort of daisy chain them.
