It is also somewhat complicated, and a creative novice may require more practice and experimentation with blocks before tackling this guide. But I’m getting ahead of myself. Let’s talk ab…

Great guide! The only thing I have to say about this is that if you’re in a memory pinch, this code also works with a few less blocks: [image]
