Type | Stack |
The Think () block is a Looks block and a Stack block. The block gives its sprite a thought bubble with the specified text. The thought bubble stays until a speech or thought block with its text block empty is activated, or the stop sign is pressed. This block is identical to the Say () block except that this block gives a thought bubble whereas the other gives a speech bubble.
Example Uses

As this block gives an everlasting thought bubble, it is used whenever a thought bubble that never ends must be made (e.g. a character that always thinks).
Some common uses are:
- A creature always making thoughts
when gf clicked think [What was it that I had for dinner again? Was it thought?] wait (3) secs think [That was a great dinner. Wait, I feel a presence in this project...] wait (3) secs think [It is a player. It can read my thoughts. I must stop now.] wait (3) secs think [] wait (20) secs think [I feel that I am alone again.] wait (3) secs think [Ah… Peace.]
- A sort of picture or a sign
when I receive [reading sign v] think [<-- Scratch Town {} Cave -->]
- A message that is not wanted to go away
when gf clicked think [I am an annoying mosquito. Fear me!]
- Variable length thoughts (such as waiting for a player's action before moving on)
when gf clicked ask [How hard do you want me to think?] and wait think [Thinking...] wait (answer) secs think []
