I want to switch from scene A to scene B, but have scene B act differently depending on where it comes from - manually clicking on it, or using a “switch to scene” block while in another scene.
I see a “switch to scene ____ and send ____” option, but the only thing in the dropdown is a green flag (switch to scene and start automatically). I can’t drag any blocks into it. Is there a way I can either
A: Send a command with a scene switch
B: Have a scene act differently depending on if it’s clicked or if it’s switched to (like a hat that says “When I am switched to from another scene” or smth
That menu with the green flag isn’t for general values; it’s for broadcast messages, i.e., text strings. I don’t know why there isn’t a “new” option in that menu; possibly just an oversight? But you can create a new message in the BROADCAST or WHEN I RECEIVE block and then use it in SWITCH TO SCENE.
The dropdown can actually have text typed directly into it for the name of the message you want to send, and making new messages doesn’t change the dropdown. This is intended because the scene you are in will have different messages from the scene you are sending to.
