The main thing that blocks are able to do is allow for more complex functionality - the settings already available in devices are pretty open-ended, but they are limited. With blocks, you’re able to alter activity feeds, detect the value of additional details relating to the game (like the name/team/score of the player who triggered the block, whether the game in question is a live game or assignment, and even how long it’s been since the game has started), perform more advanced mathematical ope…

Note: You may see some users mention transmissions, channels, etc. If you don’t know what that is, look at this guide. I don’t think links are allowed anymmore
Blocks. Block Coding is what any advanced game needs to create mechanics. This guide will tell you what each block does, and …

Functions and blocks are currently not integrateable. This guide will solve that.
You need:
1x function
1x counter
1x property
1x trigger
maybe extra triggers if you need more blocks
First, make the function. I will use the remainder function in this guide. Next, place a counter and make it change a property. Name the property something like NumFunctionsFinished. Place the trigger. Make the property broadcast on a channel to start the trigger’s block. After this, put these blocks in the t…
Blocks can take a really, really, long time to place down, especially because normally they’re just your average “if, else if, else if, else if, else if…”. Sure, you can copy and paste blocks. But that’s still not as fast as this way that I realized was incredibly useful.
