Is there a way to automatically jump to a certain frame in a stacked sequence?

[D. Luprek]

I am working with stacked sequence structures.  I would like to have a condition in some of the frames, such that if the condition is false, the sequence proceeds normally, and if the condition is true, the sequence jumps to a certain frame.  Is this possible?

Hello,

The purpose of the sequence stack was not for that. so, you should modify your code to a state machine.

But you can do a trick. use a case in each frame. And use that to escape the frames that you don't wanna do.

No, but it might be a good idea to switch from a stacked sequence to a state machine.  State machaines are easier to use and sequence structures are generally frowned upon.  You can check out state machines here.

Hi D. Luprek and drewsky,

besides "sequence structures are generally frowned upon": JUMPing around in code is generally frowned upon!

Long long time ago I used BASIC for programming and heard comments like "BASIC is spaghetti code" or "using JUMPs (aka GOTO) isn't programming"

To paraphrase a famous book reviewer from the 1930's:

"Sequence structures should not be cast aside lightly - they should be thrown with great force,,,"

Well said Mike..

Can I quote you on that? 😉

Go for it...
