New hat block: Always...

Always: It would mean that the script would run, whether or not the green flag was clicked. It would be like forever, but a hat block.

IMPORTANT UPDATE
Scratch that (pun totally intended  big_smile ) I found a workaround for all of it.

Re: New hat block: Always...

There have been suggestions in the past similar to this, but this is what it boils down to:  The stop sign is meant to completely stop a project.  If it doesn't do that, then what's the point of having it?

Hmm... There could be a command block to [restart always scripts]. It would restart them if they were stopped.

When I Recieve [broadcast]:
forever {

}


Two-block workaround.

Yup. Could also be a right-click option to never stop always scripts (even when stop all is broadcast).
